Request a Nikon lense profile for ACR 6.1?

I apologize if this should be posted somewhere else. I did not think the feature request qualified.
I am using a Nikon D80 with a 'AF-S DX Zoom-NIKKOR 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6G IF-ED' lense and it is not in the current list of profiled lenses in ACR 6.1 RC-1.
Is it possible to request inclusion of this lense in the database, or is it just too old or not professional enough?
If not possible to include, can I assume that I need to build my own profile?
I do own a copy of PT Lens which has the profile, so not a huge deal - but; I would love to stay in ACR and then go direct to PS.
Running current PS CS5 on Mac Pro (Early 2008) and OS X (10.6.3).
Vanilla installs of all software other than the ACR 6.1 RC (only third-party PS plug-ins are current versions of PT Lens and Photomatix Pro).
Thanks for any info, or a shove in the right direction for posting.

Thank you for responding and I certainly understand.
I really want to thank all the Adobe employees and other experienced individuals who are helping us. It is very much appreciated and a breath of fresh air compared to some other big company forums where responses from employees are either extremely rare or non-existent.
I am enjoying PS CS5 and know all the small bugs will be worked out in time and the features we depend on will receive the polish they deserve (or at least that has been my experience since PS 6).
Thanks again and I will either use PT Lens in the interim or perhaps see what I can do with the profile creator.
Love the new additions to ACR!

  • Loading Camera Profiles for ACR

    Hello All, I downloaded the camera profiles from Labs.Adobe.com, ran the setup which looks like it put the data in the "Settings" folder under the "Camera RAW" folder.
    When I go to Camera RAW and select Camera Profiles then Load, a dialog box opens looking for camera raw settings.xmp in the settings folder, however, the folder is empty.
    Where did I go wrong?
    Thanks for any help,

    First off, you need to post what version of Photoshop and Camera Raw you are using. Second, while you can indeed download the old "beta" DNG profiles, you may as well forget those and download the final shipping version which is part of the package for installing DNG Converter 5.3. Go to the DNG Product Page and download the 5.3 version-the DNG Profiles (the final release versions) are part of that install See: DNG Product Page
    Then I think you are confused on how to use the profiles...when properly installed and using Camera Raw 4.6 in CS3 or at least 5.2 in CS4, the DNG Profiles will show up under the Camera Calibration panel...only when loading a raw file–there are no profiles for JPEGS. Also, the number of profiles and their names will vary by camera. You can _NOT_ load profiles into Camera Raw from within Camera Raw...if you are using the flyout menu at the side, that's the wrong way of using them.
    You really need to do some reading...see the docs on Labs at the DNG PROFILES page scroll down and read the Getting Started section. If you want further help, post your system, ACR version and camera...

  • How does Adobe make their camera  profiles for ACR and Lightroom?

    I'm not interested in the proprietary algorithms , but I am curious as to the photographic mechanics and hardware tools used by  Adobe to make the various camera profiles as they differ markedly from the ones I make using the DNG Profile Editor.
    My methodology is to set an X-Rite 24 patch Color Checker target, light it evenly with electromic flash (with 0.1 stops from center to corners as mesured with a Sekonic L-758r Meter) and make a series of exposures bracketed in third of a stop increments around the meter reading in case the camera sensitivity differs from the meter's.
    I then process the raw files and convert them to the DNG format, select the best exposure and run it through the DNG Profile editor. My results differ from Adobe's generic profiles for that camera enough that that I don't thin kthe difference can be credited to the difference between a generic profile a specific camera.
    How do the different tools work in the DNG converter? Starting with the Options for "Base Tone Curve"? Is there a document a moderately color geeky person can understand that explains this?
    I thin kthe DNG Profile editor is a great and under usedtool. I wish more people knew about it.
    Thank you for your time and consideration.

    Someone who only eats sausage may not want to know how it's made.  Someone who creates things with food, a chef, a cook, or otherwise is thinking about a career in the food industry, might have a interest in such things.  Someone who is thinking of making sausage will want to know all the details.  Someone who is concerned with the public safety might want to know how sasauge is made.
    It would be nice for a sausage maker to give some hints about the process as compared to what each of us can do with the DNG Profile Editor and to the original poster's question, why are our profiles different from Adobe's?
    It is my experience that when I create a profile with the DNG Profile Editor, and then compute the color error for each of the 24 color patches of a CC24, using a program like Imatest, some colors are quite a bit off and some are very close, and the colors that are off, are not the same ones that are off when I compute the color error using one of the Adobe Standard or Camera Standard profiles.
    Is Adobe using more detailed and sophisticated color targets with hundreds of different colors, or if not, do the tools provide more feedback and allow more manual manipulation of the profile and so the differences are due to their judgement about which colors to make "right" and which ones to let have more error associated with them, that can be manipulated by hand instead of merely letting the DNG Profile Editor apparently distribute the error amongst the various colors with some sort of even-handed calculation.
    For example it is easy to imagine that someone tweaking a profile by hand with a live readout of the error of each of the colors plus an overall composite error, might put more emphasis on skin tones being right if they have a background in people photography, or more emphasis on bright colors being right if their experience is in textiles and the current trend in the US is bright colors--and a different emphasis when the trend is muted colors so there is cultrual bias and life-experience coloring a "standard" profile.
    In other words, how much of the difference between Adobe and our profiles are due to Adobe having different or better science, and how much of it is due to Adobe have different or better "artists" who decide what colors to make correct compared to others.

  • Nikon lens profile for LR4

    does anyone have a lens profile for a Nikkor 24 - 85mm 2.8 - 4 D lens or where I can get one?

  • Where/how to obtain camera profiles for Adobe Camera Raw 7.3?

    Where can you get camera profiles for ACR?  And how do you load them into ACR?  Is the Sony A77 on that list?  Need help on this one.  Thanks.

    Adobe Standard is the only camera profile available for your camera, then, if that’s all you see. 
    Adobe only makes the so-called “camera-match” profiles, with names like Camera Standard, Camera Portrait, Camera Faithful, etc, for Canon and Nikon and a select few others.  I suspect there is a lot of work involved in these and they don’t do it for cameras they see as less popular or less used.
    They wouldn’t be the same as the Camera-Match profiles from Adobe but you can create your own proilfes with an X-Rite 24-patch ColorChecker Classic and the Adobe DNG Profile Editor or using the X-Rite ColorChecker Passport package:

  • Profiles for Nikon manual focus lenses

    I can't seem to find any profile for Nikon manual focus lenses.  Are those impossible to make with the profile creator?

    Here are some of the ones:
    400/f3.5 Ais
    35/f2 Ais
    50/f1.4 Ais
    85/f1.4
    85/f2
    75-150/f3.5
    50-135/f3.5
    I think the zooms would be difficult unless you record what focal length your pictures were taken at.

  • Lens profiles for Nikon lenses

    Hello,
    Does anyone know a site where users have posted lens profiles that they have made for the Nikon lenses which are NOT included in the Photoshop CS 5 software?
    I have a Nikon 17-55mm f/2.8 lens that needs correction when shooting at or near 17mm - and I hate to have to make my own profile if someone has already done it.  I have used the profile supplied by Adobe for my Nikon 10.5mm fisheye lens - and it is spectacular!
    Is there a master site where users have posted lens profiles for Nikon lenses?

    Not yet, Dick. But please stay tuned ... there's something cookin' ...

  • How to add profiles for older camera and older lenses, Fuji S3 Pro, Nikon D90, Nikon 28-85

    About Lens Profiles:
    They are different for Raw and JPEG. Sometimes a profile is only available for Raw, sometimes for JPEG, sometimes for both, sometimes for neither. If it is available, it can be found by searching in the Profile tab of the Lens Corrections panel. If it doesn't show available when searching here, you can go to the Adobe Lens Profile Downloader and see if another user, like yourself, has created one. If not, you can download the Adobe Lens Profile Creator tool and make one yourself.  See the link below.

  • I cannot find a profile for Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR

    Hi, I have tried to download a profile for my D3100 kit lens - Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR but cannot find it in the Adobe Lens Profile downloader.
      Adobe says that it is supported (two years ago: see it at this link from October 2010    http://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjournal/2010/10  )
    Since it is listed many places as being supported, it is frustrating that I cannot find it in the Adobe Lens Profile downloader.
    Am I doing something wrong? Or can I download that profile without using the downloader.  Can I use the lens profile that is shown with a different camera.  I see similar lenses under D300 and D90 in the folder with about forty NIKON lens profiles (but only two for the D3100). However, under Lens Correction when I tick Nikon as model then I only see about seven lenses in the drop down list.  How can I see the full contents of the folder?
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks
    PS.  I was going to ask where the profiles are stored but luckily I have found them after a search.

    I too would like to see this lens profile added to the list in Lightroom, in addition to the Nikon DX AF-S DX NIKKOR 55-300mm f/4.5-5.6G ED VR. I've found a similar version of the 18-55mm under the D40, but not for the D3200, and I haven't been able to find any profile matching the 55-300; only 55-200.

  • Nikon 7700 lens profile for CS6

    I am operating CS6 and Camera Raw 8.5.0.236
    When I am processing NRW images from my Nikon 7700 I select Lens Correction and am devised that there is no profile for this lens.
    Various blogs suggest that my CS6 should be able to process 7700 images, with the necessary lens correction.
    What am I missing?
    How do I get CS6 to understand that it can process NRW files with the Nikon 7700 lens profile?
    Do I need a plug in? If so where is it and how do I install it?

    Hi David,
    The Nikon Coolpix p7700 camera is supported and listed here:
    Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    By "supported" it means the camera profiles and images from this camera are supported in Camera Raw from the version specified in the above list. Lens profile support is separate (the list Jim posted), and this camera's lens was not profiled by Adobe. It is possible we may profile it if time and resources allow, but I cannot guarantee it will happen. Using a profile from one of the supported Coolpix camera lenses may not work because there may be differences between models (different optical formulas, focal lengths, etc.) that make using another profile unsatisfactory.
    Another option is to search for a profile that another user has possibly created for this lens, or create one yourself using the Adobe - Adobe Lens Profile Creator : For Macintosh.
    There is also a version of the ALPC for Windows.
    Regards,
    - Chris

  • ACR Nikon D3X profile not listed

    Hi I have Adobe Bridge CS6 v 5.0.2.4. I've been using this for a few years with my Nikon D2 series cameras. When I open up a RAW file from one of these cameras, I have a choice of camera profiles for Nikon D2 cameras in the camera profiles drop down menu. No problem. However, I've recently added a Nikon D3x to my kit. When I open up a RAW file from this camera there is no profile listed in the drop down menu in ACR. I've checked on the Adobe RAW compatible cameras list and the Nikon D3x is confirmed as compatible but says I need a minimum of version of 5.3 camera raw plug-in for the D3x. When I check for updates from Adobe Bridge I'm told that I'm already running the most up to date version. Can anyone please advise how to resolve this? Thanks

    Hi ssprengel and JimHess, ACR version 8.6.0.254. No when I open a RAW file from my D3x there is no profile for this in the drop down menu only Adobe Standard, a list of my D2 cameras and modes 1, 2 & 3 and portrait, landscape, vivid etc. No D3X. I'm just wondering if I'm missing something, should I be loading up the profile from somewhere? or should ACR recognise the camera automatically. What's puzzling me is that the Bridge/compatible cameras list says I need a newer version of Bridge than the one I'm currently running, but I don't know how to get it. The return on the 'check updates' tab says I'm running the most up to date version. Funny thing is I had one of the support people look at this via the chat service, eventually they asked me to send a RAW file from my camera so that hey could check it at their end. I got an email back later that day confirming that they couldn't see the D3X profile either, case closed..BTW, just to clarify, I have Bridge v 5.02.4 x64 . My version of ACR is 8.6. Thanks for your help, apologies if I'm missing something simple

  • Where can I find lens correction profiles for EF 17-35 f/2.8L lens using ACR 6.2?

    Using Photoshop CS5 Extended on iMac 10.6.4.
    I'm  working with wedding photos shot by a friend but I cannot find lens  correction profiles for Canon EOS 20D or the EF 17-35 f/2.8L lens. When I  search online it simply says "No online profiles found". Is there a  download for older lens profiles? I checked & I'm using ACR 6.2. I don't have the camera so there's no  way to take test photos to create my own profile. But, shouldn't there  be a profile available; the camera isn't that old?

    Go to DXO Pro and download the 30 day trial. It works very well for lens/body correction, and unlike Adobe, DXO maintains data on the older cameras and lenses. Updates will always have those available. Adobe is a latecomer to this part of the correction process, so as Ian said, no call, no supplier? Out of luck.
    http://www.dxo.com/intl/photo
    It's fair to note that DXO does not necessarily have a complete line of everything, like my Tamron 28 to 75 isn't available as a module. They do pay attention to demands, or lack therof,  that are not mainstream as well. But their offerings are excellent, and the tests, professional.

  • Camera Raw Profile for Nikon P7800

    Why does the Nikon NRW raw file only have Matrix as a Camera Profile
    while the Canon CR2 raw file has 6 different Camera Profiles?
    Thanks in advance.

    I reported the lack of Adobe Standard or any other Camera profiles for the P7800, 3 months ago and nothing changed with the final release of ACR 8.4 or LR 5.4, but perhaps by that time, new-camera support for ACR 8.4 and LR 5.4 had already been determined, but if it's not in ACR 8.5/LR 5.5 then someone has dropped the ball:

  • Lens profile for Nikon 12-24mm

    I have Lightroom 3.6, which supposedly has a lens profile for the Nikon 12-24mm, but it doesn't show up on the list of available lenses within Lightroom.
    How would I find and import that lens profile?

    It shows up in my version of LR 3.2 (click image below) so should definitely be available in 3.6. It's listed near the bottom of the first section. Is that the lens you mean?
