LR5 Lens Correction PanelMissing

Hi,
I want to check the "remove chromatic aberrations' box in the LR5 Develop mode, but the Lens Corrections Panel is missing from my Panel view.
Please can you advise how I han restore this option. Many thanks

Right click on one of the other panel headings e.g. Tone Curve, and ensure 'Lens Corrections' is ticked.

  • LR5 - equvalent lens in lens correction tool

    Is there an equivalent lens in LR5 in the lens correction tool that I could use for a Canon SX50. The camera is a bridge camera so the lens is not separate and identifiable on the tool. Bridge cameras do not seem to be included in the option
    Thanks for help
    Bah Humbug

    It will be in 6.1, not 6.0.

  • Do I need to use lens correction in lightroom 5 if I have it enabled in camera ?

    Do I need to use lens correction in Lightroom 5 develop module it I have it enabled in camera ? (Canon 5D3)

    Thanks very much John, I noticed when I applied it in LR5 it made a difference, but I guess what I was asking was it being applied twice, and as I shoot in raw you have answered my question, thank you so much.

    Your camera will only apply lens correction (if switched on) to JPEGs, not to RAW files. Clearly you do not want to apply it twice.

  • Lightroom 5 and Lens Correction-issue

    Hi, sometimes in LR4 I used the lens correction. Most pictures nowadays I take with an old NIkon 24-85:2.8-4 lens. When I tick lens correction and choose as manufacturer Nikon it automatically gave me the Nikon 24-85:3.5-4.5 (as the 2.8-4-version is not present), but usable. In LR5 it always gives me a Nikon Coolpix-lens and I have to manually change it. Quite annoying.

    LR has not automatically assigned that lens profile, since it does not exactly correspond.
    But it's no biggie...after manually selecting a particular lens profile, you can set that as a user default to be used in future (for any other pictures that report the same lens data as the current active image does).
    It's an option in the drop-down menu within the lens profile panel.
    Your LR default settings or import preset affecting these future imported images, will just need to ensure that Profile is active, and that the selection of profile is set to Default (instead of Manual) within this same drop-down menu.
    Hereafter, LR will adopt whatever profile is the factory default or (as an override) is the user selected default, or (failing both) no profile at all, for each image imported.

  • How to import lens corrections into Lightroom?

    I have downloaded some lens corrections from the Adobe Lens Profile Downloader for lenses that didn't exist in my LR5. I do not know how to import these into LR5.

    Hi Billy. See this page, which has instructions: Adobe Lightroom

  • Lens Correction Applied Twice?

    I am shooting in camera raw plus JPEG with a Sony Nex 6.  Several lens correction features are enabled.  Are they being applied to the raw file by the camera?  The reason I wonder is that the manual usually specifies under what conditions each feature does not apply and for the lens correction features, there is no mention of raw mode.

    To be more clear: I want to understand what my camera is doing so I don't apply the correction in the camera and in LR5 to the raw file.

  • Where do I get Lens Profile for lens correction in LR3

    I have LR3 and need help figuring something out. I mainly shoot with a Tamron 24-70mm. LR3 doesn't list this lens under the lens correction so I can't correct any of the lens distortion. Anyone know where/how I can locate/install this profile? Do I get this from Adobe, Tamron, etc?

    There are three Tamron 24-70 lens profiles, but all were added to the LR 4.x series:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/multi/lens-profile-support-lightroom-4.html
    So the obvious solution is to upgrade your LR to 5.x for $80, or sign up for PS-CC+LR5 bundle at $10/month (for a limited time).
    A more complicated way to get these profiles is to install the latest DNG Converter which includes all lens profiles, then copy the lens profiles you need over to the third-party lens profile under your Users folder and LR 3 should pick them up, assuming that folder hasn’t changed places between LR3 and LR5.
    I am not a Mac person, but on Windows, the DNG Converter installed profiles would be under:
    C:\ProgramData\Adobe\CameraRaw\LensProfiles\1.0\Tamron
    And the place to put them is:
    C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CameraRaw\LensProfiles\1.0\downloaded
    AppData is a hidden folder so you just have to type it into the Explore address area and hit Enter or turn on hidden folders in Explorer or type %APPDATA% in Explorer and hit Enter will get you down to the Roaming folder.
    You can find the latest DNG Converter at:  http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates

  • My Lightroom lens corrections need correcting. Is this normal?

    I have bought myself my 1st DSLR camera (Nikon D3100) as i now want to shoot Raw instead of Jpeg. I've always shot Jpegs in the past with my old cameras. The in-camera Jpegs from my new Nikon don't show any lens distortion. However, when i open the Raw (NEF) files in Lightroom and tick 'enable profile correction' in the Lens corrections section, the distortion correction seems too much and i have to manually adjust it every time.
    The lens profile comes from Lightroom itself (not from other users), & so this doesn't seem quite right to me that the correction is somewhat wrong each time.
    I'm wondering if i'm doing something wrong or that maybe its even normal to have to adjust the correction further yourself each time (and perhaps most users have to do that too)?
    I've included 3 Jpegs of the same image to demonstrate the problem (detailed below):
    1) The export from Lightroom with the lens distortion corrected by Lightroom (note the straight red line).
    2) An exported Jpeg version of the uncorrected Nef from Lightroom  (to show the full original lens distortion)
    3) The original in-camera Jpeg (obviously the distortion corrected by the camera)
    I've  drawn straight red lines on to the images to demonstrate the differences.
    Any ideas?
    ^ above image is a Lightroom exported Jpeg (from NEF) with lens correction ON (note the red line along the top of the roof)
    ^ above image is a Lightroom exported Jpeg (from NEF) with NO lens correction yet, thus showing original distortion.
    ^ above image is the ORIGINAL in-camera JPEG showing no distortion at all (note the red line along the top of the roof).
    P.s i've taken different shots too and the problem is the same for them all (at least at 18mm anyway).
    Additional information:
    The Nikon D3100 has an APS-C sensor (I'm not sure if that's significant or not). Also the lens described in the profile correction matches the one from my camera.

    Hi Paul,
    I'm really not sure exactly what DxO outputs when you choose DNG:
    It's not raw data, yet preserves some ability to do raw things in Lightroom, like white balance and camera profiles.
    I dunno about pulling from highlight/shadow "reserves", but note: it's different than a DNG-wrapped tif or jpeg, it may be able to pull from the highlight/shadow reserves as can be done via the DNG used for smart previews - I just don't know.
    trshaner: do you know for sure that a DxO DNG hard-clips shadows/highlights, or are you just "extrapolating/assuming/educatedly-guessing"?
    Regardless, DxO has some auto shadow/highlight recovery (for those extreme black/white tones) that is quite good - don't sell it short.
    Google 'dxo linear dng highlights.' Here's one that supports what I said:
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/663428
    I've tried using Canon's DPP for the same purpose with TIFF output AND with DPP's highlight recovery. I can't get the same highlight recovery with the TIFF as compared to the raw inside LR with PV2012.

    I still think about it when Lr's lens corrections are wonky. But my problem with Lr's lens corrections have more to do with vignetting than distortion (because I mostly shoot nature, not buildings...), and I can add manual correction and/or a dab of paint to the automatic corrections, which saves me the complication of front-ending via DxO. If distortion is your primary concern, consider balancing auto with manual distortion corrections (I've not done much of that, so no guarantee...). Also, there's the upright feature in Lr5...
    What's wrong with simply changing the Lens Profile 'Amount' settings from 100 if a specific lens profiles is "over-correcting" or "under-correcting? Don't forget most zoom lenses have a "complex" moustache shaped distortion, which is NOT easily corrected with LR's Manual Distortion control. You can certainly try both, but there's no way to save the Manual Distortion "correction" setting to a specific lens profile's defaults.
    Rob Cole wrote:
    PPS - DxO's purple fringe tool will get the fringe out without the artifacts of Lr's global defringer, however it may also take away real image color sometimes, and can't be done locally, so one may ultimately get better results in Lr if willing to spend a while painting local defringing.
    I've never seen any artifacts caused by the LR Defringe tools (see image posted of Canon 8-15mm Fisheye lens CA), but you do need to be very careful concerning the actually settings used. After using the eyedropper tool to sample a fringe area I fine tune the settings to eliminate desaturation of areas that have similar color as the fringe area. Once you have the correct settings save it to a Develop preset for manual application. For example with my Canon 8-15mm F4L Fisheye zoom I have two (2) Develop presets of 8-12mm (Purple 2, 30/55) and 13-15mm (Purple 4, 30/55). There is no need to use Local controls with Defringe if you follow my suggestions for manually tuning the settings to prevent desaturation in like colored areas. IMHO the LR CA and Defringe tools are darn near perfect when you use them correctly!

  • Manual Lens Correction in Lightroom 4

    The Manual Lens Correction sliders in Lightroom 4 seem completely useless. They aren't working the same as they do in Lightroom 3. Instead of being able to fix keystoning of images, now the horizontal and vertical sliders just stretch or distort photos. Is this a bug? If not, is it possible to go back to the functionality from LR3? If this isn't possible, I'm probably going to switch back to Lightroom 3, since this is one of the program's most useful features.

    Lee Jay wrote:
    ... This functionality hasn't changed at all for me - it works exactly as before.
    I think so, too.
    See my example in the feedback forum demonstrating the different effect of the manual transformation sliders depending on the angle of view: http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/i_would_love_automation_in_the_lens_ correction_manual_panel : There is an automatic aspect ratio correction, and for photos taken with a rather small angle of view, this is mostly a stretch/distort. Which is totally correct IMHO (and hasn't changed since LR3).
    P.S. I don't know which angle of view LR assumes for photos w/o information about focal length and sensor size (probably 50mm focal length and 35 mm film format ("full format") sensor.

  • Lens Corrections unavailable in Adobe Camera Raw 8.3

    hello,
    since i switched to photoshop CC (mac version), i am having constant problems with lens corrections in ACR 8.3. i am a professional photographer and i use various canon pro lenses that all exist as unique lens profiles already in photoshop and ACR's lens profile archives. when i open canon .CR2 files in adobe ACR 8.3, i encounter the message "unable to load lens profile" at the bottom right of dialog box and even though the correct lenses are identified, ACR cannot apply corrections (please see the attached visual). furthermore, this behavior happens to be sort of erratic, since it may sometimes decide to apply corrections without displaying the "unable to load lens profile" error message.
    when i open the files into photoshop CC without being able to apply corrections, i try the "lens correction" menu within photoshop and it works. it is very cumbersome not to be able to do this at the ACR stage.
    the ACR that came with photoshop CS 6 never had such problems and it corrected all the lenses that i had.
    can you please help me to fix this issue ASAP, since this error makes me lose a lot of time in my workflow.
    i also have photoshop CS6 installed in the same disk, could this have any effect?
    best regards,
    murat germen

    Presumably you're shooting raw for everything, right, otherwise the issue can be that most raw-capable-camera's JPGs don't have lens profiles whereas raw files do, so profiles are found for raw images but not JPGs.  The reverse is sometimes true, too, where a camera used to only have JPG output but now produces raw files.  I believe the DJI Phantom Vision FC200 quadcopter camera is an example of such.  The screenshot doesn't have enough of the ACR interface to see the name of the file.
    Are the profiles that aren't found consistently the same lens or are they from various lenses that also have photos that work in ACR 8.3 at other times?  And do the same photos that fail to have lens profiles load in ACR 8.3 at one point then work if you open them again, later?  In other words does the intermittency seem to be tied to either the specific photos or the specific lenses or not?  Specific photos could mean there is something corrupted in the photo.  Specific lenses could mean that the lens profiles are missing, somehow, or inaccessible due to permission problems.
    Is CS6 updated to the same ACR 8.3 version or is it older?  If it is older then install the ACR 8.3 update for CS6.  This will re-install the lens and camera profiles, again.
    If CS6 is already updated to ACR 8.3, too, then install the DNG Converter 8.3, which also will install the profiles, again.
    The DNG Converter can be found, here:
    http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates
    If you can't figure it out, then uninstall PS-CC, log out of the CC Desktop app, log back in--so it sees that CC is missing, then re-download and install CC.  This should reset ACR back to 8.0 or 8.1 after which you can install the ACR 8.3 update, again.

  • How to Save Camera Calibration and Lens Correction in Camera raw 6.1

    I downloaded and installed the Camera Raw 6.1 release candidate.  I open an image and set the camera calibration and the lens correction to auto for Nikon.  I save these settings as new Camera raw defaults, but when I open other images, the changes were not made.  How can I save these items as defaults?
    Swila

    Swila, were your "other images" previously edited in Camera Raw? I.e., do they already have saved image settings? The defaults that you save via the flyout menu will only apply to new images, or if you reset an existing image to the defaults. (e.g., choose "Camera Raw Defaults" from the flyout menu).

  • ACR 8.7 release candidate, Nikon D750, Lens corrections tab

    I capture images using a Nikon D750 & AF-S NIKKOR 24-120mm f/4G ED VR lens with image quality set for NEF (RAW) + JPEG fine & image size set for Large. Slot 1 card saves the NEF files & slot 2 card saves the JPEG files. I download the images using Bridge CC Photo Downloader converting the NEF to a DNG while downloading. When editing the DNG image using the Lens Corrections tab in ACR it correctly recognizes the lens. When editing the JPEG image the same way it incorrectly identifies the lens as an AF-S NIKKOR 14-24mm f/2.8G ED and does not offer a choice for the correct lens. I hoping this can be fixed soon. A workaround that seems fairly accurate is to choose the AF-S NIKKOR 24-70 f2.8G ED instead for the JPEG images.
    I recently had to install Camera Raw 8.7 for CC Release Candidate Version: RC 1, Date: October 2, 2014 to recognize the D750 NEF files.

    What you’re seeing is normal.  Most lens profiles from Adobe are for RAW files only.  Many cameras do their own corrections, nowadays, so Adobe cannot assume the raw profile would work for JPGs from the camera as a general case.  For example with my new Canon 7D Mark II, which I'm awaiting raw support for at all, I can select vignetting, chromatic-aberration and geometric distortion correction as separate items on the menu to be used for producing camera JPGs.  Adobe doesn't attempt to interpret such proprietary information and apply the appropriate correction for corrections I haven't already asked the camera to do, they just don't supply a lens profile at all for JPGs.  The kit lenses for some cameras seem to be the exception to this, as well as a few other lenses, which I'm not sure why they've supplied profiles for.  You can also download profiles others have created, themselves, using the Adobe Lens Profile Downloader which you can find on the adobe.com site.
    If you are confident you won't ever have distortion or vignetting correction enabled on your camera for the JPGs it produces, then you can hack a copy of the Adobe-supplied raw profile for a particular lens to be for non-raws, by changing the whateverRAW tag from True to False, and put the modified profile in the user-created profiles area of your computer and it’ll be seen and used.

  • Adobe Camera Raw - lens correction profiles not found

    I use Photoshop CC as part of the photography program of Creative Cloud. My platform is a Mac Book Pro (2013) with the latest Mac OS-X operating system. I have also installed Bridge CC and Lightroom 5.
    Since about three weeks (maybe after an update but I'm not sure on that) Adobe Camera Raw's lens correction feature fails permanently. With older pictures (taken long before the error occured for the first time) as well as with new photos and with dng files as well as with cr2 files the ACR dialog always shows the error message (lens correction profile can't be found - since I have the German version of Photoshop this is how I would translate the error message). I didn't install or uninstall any programs, plugins etc. around the time of the first occurance of the error.
    I already uninstalled Photoshop CC completely (using the uninstall function in the programs folder) and reinstalled it via Creative Cloud but it still shows the same error.
    What can I do?

    Hello, you can make sure the latest version is installed by going to help-updates.
    Also, make sure that you are running the latest version of the creative cloud application, as it fixes a permission problem that might cause the issue you are facing. Just go to the creative cloud application on your menu bar, and restart it.

  • Olympus E-P1 Support / Lens Corrections?

    Hey there, I recently picked up an Olympus E-P1 with the 14-42mm lens.  I updated to ACR 5.5, so now Lightroom and Bridge can open the RAW files (ORF format).  The Adobe DNG converter also works on those files.
    However, none of these result in correcting barrel distortion, which is noticeable with the 14mm shots.  I also don't see an option to manually control any lens distortions in LR or ACR.  Photoshop CS4 has a lens correction filter, but it doesn't work as well as the Olympus Master software (their software for working with RAW files).
    Any thoughts on this?  Should LR / ACR automatically fix the barrel distortions, or am I missing a setting?

    Most of the shots are done JPEG + RAW, and the JPEG and RAW files are identical.  I can post a set if you want. 
    It's a little odd, because I was under the impression that the camera's JPEG engine is supposed to do this type of lens correction.  I asked Olympus about this but haven't heard yet.  As you can probably tell though, the EXIF data is intact.

  • Lens Correction and JPEGs

    Hi,
    I'm new to LR. I've spent the last two months watching every tutorial, practicing with a portfolio/video instructional off the Adode site and reorganizing my own photos and folders on my computer.
    I finally took the "bold" step to put a few of my photos into LR. All my photos are from either a Nikon 3000 or 3100 with the same lens AF-S DX Nikkor 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6G ED.
    Also, all my photos are JPEGs.
    1) In Lens Correction > Profile > Enable Profile Correction there are 3 options
    Default (no make/model options)
    Auto (no make/model options)
    Custom > when I click this I get the model and Adobe profile for the Nikon AF-S Nikkor 14-24mm f/2.8G ED
    Is the Adobe profile the same for both lenses? The 14-24 and the lens on my camera - the 18-135?
    Default and Auto look the exact same. If I click Custom, the image becomes a little more exposed. To my eye, Default/Auto look better.
    2) Also, should I "check" chromatic aberration for all my photos? I'm not sure how this feature works in LR with JPEGs.
    3) Considering where I am and my skills at this point, what is the best recommendation going forward, for learning LR and working with my JPEGs.
    Since I'm going to be essentially working only with JPEGS for a while, what lens correction should I use with these photos? Default/Auto/Custom?
    4) Are there any other settings that I need to pay attention to with the camera/lens/file type that I am using while trying to learn LR?
    I'm starting to realize from my readings, that JPEGS will have a more limited range of development in LR and "LR will display only the profiles available for the file type of the selected image."  Lens profile support | Lightroom 5, 4, 3 | Photoshop CS6, CS5 | Camera Raw 8, 7, 6
    I want to become a more serious amateur and enthusiastic photographer, but I also don't want to spend 15 minutes editing/developing every semi-decent photo I take.
    As an aside, my 3100 has a shutter problem, so I will be upgrading at some point (probably Micro 4/3) and I plan to explore shooting RAW or a combination of RAW/JPEG somewhere down the road.
    Thanks
    Andrew

    As I understand lens correction profiles, most are written for RAW photos only, and there are only a few profiles written for JPGs. That would explain why you don't see your specific lens under Custom.
    2) Also, should I "check" chromatic aberration for all my photos? I'm not sure how this feature works in LR with JPEGs.
    I'm certainly not the biggest expert on chromatic aberration, but it seems to me that the chromatic aberration algorithms are looking for certain types of coloration at "edges", and I don't see why that would be different for JPGs compared to RAWs.
    But I'm confused by the actual question ... checking the box and seeing if it makes the photo better seems so simple that I don't really understand why you had to ask the question.
    3) Considering where I am and my skills at this point, what is the best recommendation going forward, for learning LR and working with my JPEGs.
    Since I'm going to be essentially working only with JPEGS for a while, what lens correction should I use with these photos? Default/Auto/Custom?
    Again, the learning process in Lightroom is ... just do it. You can't harm your photos, you can always undo whatever you did that you didn't like. The lens correction you choose is the one that makes the photo's appearance look best to you.
    4) Are there any other settings that I need to pay attention to with the camera/lens/file type that I am using while trying to learn LR?
    Any setting and any slider and any tool might be the right one for your photo. There is no general setting that EVERYONE uses, as the reason software provides options is that some people want it one way, and other people want it a different way.
    I want to become a more serious amateur and enthusiastic photographer, but I also don't want to spend 15 minutes editing/developing every semi-decent photo I take.
    The learning curve can be difficult, but as I said, editing your photos will never harm your originals, and you can always undo whatever you did. So ... just do it.
    I am concerned that even as a beginner, you think it might take you 15 minutes to edit a single photo. Unless you are doing a HUMONGUS amount of brushing, this should never take 15 minutes, even for a beginner. Yes, of course if you want everything to be absolutely PERFECT, then it will take longer, but there really is no such thing as a PERFECT photo. Your goal ought to be (in my opinion) making the photos look GOOD, and learning what the sliders and tools do as you go. And certainly there is no unique determination of what a GOOD photo is, a photo that looks GOOD to you may not look good to someone else, but that's kind of irrelevant, its your photo, it should only matter that it looks GOOD to you.
    You said you watched tutorials, are these tutorials helping, or not? Do you feel you have learned the basic purpose of (some of) the develop sliders and develop tools, or not?

Maybe you are looking for
