Roundtrip LR to PS using Xrite camera profile

If I use an Xrite Color Checker camera profile my LR images will not roundtrip to PS using the "edit in" menu option. If I turn the profile off they work fine. Advice appreciated. Anyone know a solution??

You've got this all wrong. A custom monitor profile is not to be used as document profile. That's not its purpose and not where it belongs.
Color management always requires two profiles, a source and a destination. Photoshop and Lightroom, as color managed applications, convert on the fly from the source color space and into the monitor color space.
Lightroom's internal working color space is linear ProPhoto (gamma 1.0). In Photoshop you use sRGB, Adobe RGB or ProPhoto (1.8). In both cases, this is converted into your monitor profile and this is what is sent to the monitor.
Both applications find and use the monitor profile set at system level, without any user intervention.

How to Search Lightroom Library for Photos Using Specific Camera Profiles?

Photos processed using Lightroom 5.6 camera profiles for the Nikon D810 displayed posterized colors. A temporary workaround was published by Adobe, as described here:
Nikon D810 camera profiles display posterized colors
Lightroom 5.7 resolved the issue, but I still have a lot of photos that were processed with the "v2 beta" camera profiles provided by Adobe, and those profiles still remain on my computer. I'd like to find all the photos in my Library that were processed using a v2 beta camera profile, update them to the respective new 5.7 profiles, then remove the v2 beta profiles from my computer so they no longer show as options in the Lightroom Camera Calibration pane.
How can I search my Library to find all the photos that used one of the beta Camera Profiles?
Thanks.

The Data Explorer, DevMeta, and Any Filter plugins can search for specific camera profiles. (You can't do it with LR smart collections or filters.)

Camera Profile

Creative Cloud 2014
Windows 7 Pro 64-bit
XRite Color Checker Passport
Nikon P7800
I create Camera Profiles (.DCP files) using XRite Color Checker Passport.
Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) looks for user generated Camera Profiles in folder
C:\Users\john\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles
Camera Calibration tab | Camera Profile
If I do not create a DCP profile for a shoot, the Camera Profile list does not have the default "Matrix" profile for the Nikon P7800. It shows a list of XRite Camera Profiles from my other shoots. Therefore, Camera Profile will use some XRite DCP as a profile no matter what even if you do not want that profile.
Why is the "Matrix" profile for the Nikon P7800 missing?
If I delete all the XRite DCP files in folder
C:\Users\john\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles
ACR now shows the "Matrix" profile for the Nikon P7800 as a selection.
For some reason, it is missing "Vivid", etc..
I am not sure which folder ACR places the "Matrix" profile for a Nikon P7800.
In summary, If there is anything in folder
C:\Users\john\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles
ACR does not also search in the default folder where default DCP files for the Nikon P7800 reside.
Why?
What should one do?
Having to use a XRite DCP not intended for that shoot (since "Matrix" is not available) makes no sense.
Thanks in advance.

You are correct. I goofed.
I installed the Adobe DNG Converter 8.8 - incorrectly thinking it included the ACR.
It is unclear why the following page does not have CameraRaw_8_8?
Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter for Windows
The title of the page would indicate it should include all the ACR downloads.
I went to the page you first suggested for the latest ACR installer at:
https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/multi/camera-raw-plug-in-installer.html
After installing "CameraRaw_8_8.exe", "About ACR" now shows the correct version 8.8.0.397.
Bye-the-way, I am unclear what the difference is between "CC Desktop Manager app" and Adobe Creative Cloud application. I thought the Adobe Creative Cloud application replaced the "CC Desktop Manager app"? Adobe Creative Cloud appears as "CreativeCloud.exe" in the Task Manager i.e. is just an ordinary EXE.
Further question - As expected ACR does not appear as an APP in the Creative Cloud application list since it is a plug-in. If the ACR is out of date, am I correct in assuming that the Creative Cloud application will say Photoshop is "up to date" since the Creative Cloud application does not look at plug-in dates. However, if the Creative Cloud application says Photoshop has an "update", the update will include the latest ACR plug-in.
Do you have any idea where Adobe stores the native Camera Profiles for each camera?
Thanks again for your feedback.

Q: Custom camera profiles and process 2010 - incompatible?

I have two digital cameras that I've had modified to shoot in the infrared. I have to use custom camera profiles (created with the DNG profile editor) when I import IR images, otherwise the custom white balance is not preserved correctly. However, even though the Develop module shows that the process is 2010 for my IR images, the Detail and Contrast sliders under Noise Reduction are grayed out.
I read somewhere on the web that custom camera profiles used on import effectively negate the ability to use the new features in process 2010 - can anyone confirm this, or otherwise explain why I'm not able to use the Noise Reduction features of process 2010 in their entirety?
Thanks much.

Even with the amounts at non-zero values?

Love Lightroom Camera Profiles. Could we get more?

Loving the Camera Profiles for Sony cameras in Lightroom and Adobe Camera Raw. Would it be possible to add them for Sony A900, A850 and A700 in the next Lightroom and ACR updates? Thank you!

Many Sony users have asked why Lightroom and Adobe Camera Raw doesn't read Sony Creative Styles embedded in RAW - thwse camera profiles offer a very nice response to that question.
ACR and LR don't support this capability with any camera model, and it's not likely to be added in the future. What Adobe has done is provide "emulations" of the "Camera" picture styles for some camera makes and models, which can be manually selected and applied. You can do a search here and at Photoshop Family Customer Community for posts on camera picture styles and add your vote, or even add a new request.
The OEM's picture style "recipes" are designed to work specifically with the their raw converter and not ACR/LR. The Adobe Standard camera profile and ACR/LR Develop default settings are designed to make camera raw images look nearly identical regardless of camera make or model (i.e. "Standard").
Brian Smith Photo wrote:
Those are someone's custom profiles which are fine but they are not the Sony Creative Style profiles. The screenshot above shows Lightroom profiles for A7-series cameras.
What I read at that site:
I've photographed, under the direct sunlight, a 24 color GretagMacbeth / X-Rite table, then, after converting the RAW to DNG, I've created the standard color profiles with Adobe DNG Profile Editor. Starting from the standard profile and using as reference the "non standard" Nikon, Canon and Leica's profiles, I've created the creative profiles.
Based on the procedure he used these camera profiles may as good or better than Adobe's. They are both emulations created using the Adobe DNG Profile Editor. I can also tell you that neither profile (Adobe's or his) will perfectly "match" the picture style of an in-camera JPEG or raw file processed with the OEMs raw converter. It may be close....but no cigar! I use a ColorChecker PassPort created profile with all my Canon DSLRs, which I find is a better "starting point" than Adobe Standard–YMMV. I also rarely if ever use the "Camera" profiles, which usually require using different Basic panel settings. The one exception is 'Camera Faithful,' which I sometimes use for revealing fine tonal and color gradations (i.e. flowers).

LR 3.6RC vs. LR 3.6 /w D700 Camera Profiles v4

I used the LR 3.6RC on Mac to develop a whole session using the Camera Profiles v4 that came with 3.6RC. The behaviour was a bit strange as the images got "lighter" the more you move the "Wiederherstellungs-Regler" (is that recovery control in the english version?) to the right. Anyhow, I developed some hundred images using LR3.6RC /w Camera Profiles v4 and after I installed the regular 3.6 now all images that have been done with 3.6RC are now too dark (and much too dark!). That means I have to go through all images to re-develop them?
You can see an example here: left is how it looks in (also devel here) 3.6RC1, right is how it looks now in 3.6

I'll have to add new findings to the above issue. When I switch to the library mode the image will be shown in the original development status as it has been done in LR3.6RC. You'll see it in the screendumps.
On the left side is the screendump from the library module. The right photo of the two is the one I'm talking about. The left one is a tiff version with all controls set to zero.
The screendump on the right site shows the same image in the development module of LR3.6. Same behaviour as in my first mail.
Any idea, help?

Camera Profiles,Elements 9.

In RAW editor I am unable to use a camera profile.It shows only Matrix.I use an iMac and at Macintosh HD/Library/App Support/Adobe/Camera Raw/Camera Profiles/Camera there are several files including one for mine (EOS 60D).
So the profile appears to be on the computer but does not appear in the RAW editor.
Any help please.
Thanks.

Go to File Menu and opt for Open As option.
Select Camera Raw in second dropdown and open your Raw. It should open your Raw files in Adobe Camera Raw dialog. version should be visible on title-bar of this dialog.

Camera profiles. /what happens when deleted

Hello.
if you use the camera profiles (beta) that can be downloaded. What happens to photos that used such a profile in develop, if the profile where to be removed.
Like if you need to re-install LR, buy a new computer, an updated profile (non beta. etc etc.
i find the D2X mode3 (set down brightness a little and change green hue a bit) give good match to Capture NX style from my Nikon D50.
/Walker

In the absence of your requested profile for an image, LR will use the first available profile. It's a current UI glitch that causes LR to show the blank Profile popup menu, but in fact it is using a profile specific to your camera (you'd know for sure if it wasn't: colors wouldn't be remotely close).
We plan to provide a smooth migration path for those who want to upgrade from beta profiles to final profiles once they're ready.

Using colorchecker for camera profile

Created photo then used file menue, export preset, xrite. It worked but I never got a change to select a name. It came up as "profile". What am I missing. Found the profiles but my camera Cannon Rebel 4ti is not listed. Is there an easy way to change or delete these profiles?

This may help. Don't forget to also calibrate your WB with the new profile using the gray patch next to the 100% white patch. I save this as a new Develop preset with only 'White Balance' and 'Calibration' (Camera DNG profile) checked. I found this necessary as the WB was different when using the LR WB presets.
Be careful when renaming camera profiles. Any images already using the profile will revert back to 'Adobe Standard' since it no longer sees the profile with the "old name." Try to use something descriptive like '600D CCPP Sunny.' This will help identify them if you decide to use the Adobe DNG Profile Editor for creating or modifying camera profiles.

Problem using custom color profiles in Camera Raw

Dear Adobe Community,
I've created a custom color profile using the DNG profile editor, and I've been able to open that custom .dcp file in Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) through Adobe Bridge. However, when I apply the color profile to the same image, I do not get the same results as I get with the profile editor. When I open the "corrected" RAW file in Adobe Photoshop, the colors are the same wrong colors that I have in Bridge, am I missing something here?

Yes, you're missing something.
Camera profiles are meant to account for different spectral distribution in different light sources, which is something else than different color temperatures. You still have to make all the normal adjustments, like white balancing, to get the image right.

Camera Profiles in LR 5.4 missing

When trying to use VSCO film presets today, I've decided to check Camera Profile inside Camera Calibration in Lightroom. To my surprise profile would never change whenever I applied a new preset. It consistently showed Adobe Standard profile. In the drop-down menu the only profiles that show are the default: Adobe Standard, Camera Faithful, Camera Landscape, Camera Neutral, Camera Portrait, Camera Standard.
I made sure I'm working on RAW files.
I remember that a moth ago I was still able to see the entire huge list of VSCO camera profiles in that drop-down menu.
The Presets menu continues to show presets correctly as before.
I've checked and all those Camera Profiles (.dcp files) are as before located in /Username/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CameraRaw/CameraProfiles
Also a few of my XRite Passport calibration profiles located in that folder do not show in LR.
I even tried moving them to the main /Library/Application Support/Adobe/CameraRaw/CameraProfiles, but it didn't fix the problem.
In a couple of forums I've read that downloading and installing the newest Adobe DNG Converter 8.4 can reset some of the index files, but it didn't work for me.
I'd be grateful for any suggestions!
I'm using:
OSX 10.9.3
LR 5.4 CreativeCloud
Canon 5D Mark III

These profiles are in my main Library directory (non-user specific) inside Mac/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CameraRaw/CameraProfiles/Camera in individual camera specific folders. They appear to belong to the default selection of camera profile inside LR - I did not install those. They do not appear inside LR application though. LR metadata in the library module recognizes my camera as it should, but is not loading 5DmkIII specific profiles.
Here are troubleshooting steps I've performed on those profiles from the default folder (not the VSCO profiles!):
1 - Moved Canon 5DmkIII profiles from Mac/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CameraRaw/CameraProfiles/Camera/Canon EOS 5D Mark III folder to Mac/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CameraRaw/CameraProfiles - didn't help
2 - Moved Canon 5DmkIII profiles from Mac/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CameraRaw/CameraProfiles/Camera/Canon EOS 5D Mark III to rafaelswit/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CameraRaw/CameraProfiles - didn't help either
This is how it looks in the default path. SamsungSSD is my main drive where OSX and all applications are installed.

Cs3, camera raw 4.0, camera profile is locked at acr 3.3

Hello
i am using pscs3, and wanted to use a colorchecker passport to fine tune my color balance. i *thought* that after running the xrite software, that their profile of my D200 would appear in a dropdown list under "camera profile" in the camera calibration tab of ACR 4,0 --- but the camera profile is locked at ACR 3.3, and there is no dropdown. suggestions are very welcome.
thankws

Most of the problems with ACR are one of 2 things. Either you have more than one copy in the folder, or you have it in the wrong folder.
In PS click on help/about plug-in/camera raw. See what you have.
Plug in should be in program files/COMMON FILES/adobe/plugins/CS5/file formats

LR is recognising Colour checker passport but my user created camera profiles don't appear

HI there, I run OS X Yosemite on a MBP and have Creative Cloud access to LR and PS. I have Xrite Colour Checker Passport installed. LR is recognising the Colour checker passport but my user created camera profiles don't appear in the Develop Module. Anybody else had / have this problem?

Profiles are camera-model-specific and only for raw files not JPGs.
I suppose it’s possible that the folder the profiles are in is not accessible to LR, so you might try changing the permissions to make sure everyone can access them. I am a PC person so am not sure how to do this but I’m sure Google can tell you.
If you can’t figure it out, upload the profile file (.dcp) and the raw file that was used to create it and perhaps one more raw file from the same camera that the profile should apply to, and someone else can try on their system, to verify the profile is valid.

How to make an untwisted camera profile available in LR 4.4?

I have downloaded dcpTool from http://dcptool.sourceforge.net and generated the untwisted versions of all the Nikon D700 related camera profiles (Adobe Standard, Camera Standard, etc.) that come with LR 4.4. Since the structure of the camera profile filenames seem to be important, for each file I kept the original name but added a distinction to its end (e.g. Nikon D700 Camera Standard UT.dcp).
According to the information I have collected, 'installation' of these profile versions would be as easy as copying them into the same directories where the original profiles are. Unfortunately LR 4.4 does not bring them up in the Camera Calibration module.
How should I 'install' these profiles?

Thanks again for your very useful advice. You gently explain why my idea is groundless. You are right, it is better to stay on ground.
I changed to LR recently. So far I have used only the Adobe Standard profile, but I am not very pleased with it. A few days ago I started fiddling with other D700 profiles, without any convincing color rendering improvement. This is the reason for entering the camera profiling world.
As my username reflects, I am a hobbyshooter. Most of my pictures are taken when travelling (landscapes and cityscapes) but I also shoot at family events and parties.
You have made me even more curious about the ColorChacker based profiles. I hope they will solve my main problems: skin color, the vivid reds of Nikon, and the formerly mentioned hue twist. Nevertheless, I am afraid that finding the right color rendering balance for my typical environments (particularly for indors with totally mixed lighting) will not be easy...
I am also thinking of reprocessing roughly two thousand pictures, taken years ago with D200 and D300. Do you have any suggestion how to get nice 'generic' profiles for the given camera+lens combos, which I do not have these days, so creating their profiles with ColorChecker is out of the question for me?

How do I install a camera profile into CS2 raw converter

I recently purchased a ColorChecker Passport and along with the software, created a camera profile for my Olympus E-300. The CCP software crated a camera profile that was duly placed into the c:\users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\adobe\cameraraw\cameraprofile\olumpus e-300 Directory. When I open an olympus ORF raw file from cs2 or bridge, and select the calibrate tab the only thing that is available in the camera calibrate box is ACR 2.4. Clicking the drop down arrow doesn't show anything else.
I have turned off colormanagement in photoshop.
Can anybody tell me how I can get photo shop to recognize the new camera profile?
I have tried restarting photoshop and Bridge after the DCp file was added to teh directory.
ACR verssion 3.7(?)
OS is windows home 64
8 gigs of ram
Photoshop cs2 version 9.0.1
adobe bridge cs2 version 1.0.4.6
I have also performed the same tasks on photoshop cs3 on my work computer with the same results.

The earliest version of Camera Raw to use DNG Profiles was version 4.6 in Photoshop CS3...so, you won't be able to use that DNG profile in ACR 3.7.
