Cannot Select Lens Profile


Recommended Posts

Hello,

I just did a clean install of macOS Sonoma. After installing Affinity Photo, when opening a RAW image, the application won't let me click on the Lens Profile checkbox to manually choose a profile.

Before installing Sonoma, I was on the latest version of Ventura, and on version 2.1.1 of Affinity Photo, and I could choose any lens profile without problem.

Hi, which RAW engine do you use, Apple RAW or Serif RAW?

Hi, I am also having a problem today accessing the Lens Profile application (under Lens Correction) in the Develop Persona while working with my raw images with Affinity Photo. I can't click on the check marked box nor can I access the pulldown menu (that I use for one of my most common lenses). It is just wholly inaccessible. I think that my MacBook Pro recently updated its OS so maybe that is the problem. I have a MacBook Pro now running Sonoma 14.0 and I am using Affinity Photo 2.0.0. I also decided to run my original Affinity Photo 1.10.6 to see whether the problem occurred there as well and it did. I also could not access the Lens Profile tab running that older version of AF. I imagine the problem, then, is with the Mac OS upgrade....??

I just wanted to add on that when I am developing raw images that I took with a different lens that Affinity Photo automatically recognises (meaning I do not ever have to access the Lens Profile dropdown manually with this other lens, which happens to be a Sony Distagon T 24mm lens) -- Affinity Photo DID automatically recognise that the image was shot with the 24mm and DID apply automatic adjustments. It is just with the other lens that I have always had to manually choose under the pulldown menu (it is a Sony Planar T 50mm that I use often and have it "hearted" as a favourite on the Lens Profile pulldown menu that is never automatically recognised by Affinity Photo) that I am experiencing a problem with today.

Same question to you: do you use Serif or Apple RAW (develop assistant)?

 

Apple RAW automatically does lens correction (independent from settings in Photo), so lens correction must be disabled in that case. when I remember it right, this might have changed in V2.2 and automatically gets deactivated and blocked.

When using Serif RAW, you can choose if it is on or off.

Hi, I am sorry to say I do not understand your question. I shoot with a Sony a99ii and transfer my raw images into my MacBook Pro and open up directly into Affinity Photo to develop the raw images. ?? Does this answer your question? Or can you rephrase it for me, a computer-illiterate type? Thanks so much.

Thanks for your report! As above this is a known issue which is already logged with our development team, though I have 'bumped' the issue with this thread to bring it to their attention once again.

We hope to have this issue resolved ASAP, our apologies for any inconveniences caused in the meantime.
