Affinity Photo 2 - 2.5.3 Free Trial version - Lens Profile Missing


Recommended Posts

First Time User. Problem #3. Camera Sony A7c with Sony FE 70-200 F4 Macro G OSS II (This is the  Mark 2 version of the lens).

This combination is correctly recognised in the Metadata and the description above the image in the Develop Persona but the Profile for the lens is not available in the Lens Tab?

The profile is available in Lightroom so will it become available in Affinity?

Regarding camera support (raw files) and lens support you should know that both are based on the following projects.:

For support of cameras (raw files) Affinity Photo relies mainly on the LibRaw library, like many other software.

For lens profile support they rely on Lensfun https://lensfun.github.io/calibration/. If your lens is currently not supportes, check this site and also read this:

So the answer to your question is: it depends on when these projects support the camera and/or lens.

The FE 70-200mm f/4 G OSS is listed as supported, but not the OSS II.

Photo uses the OpenSource Lenfun database at https://lensfun.github.io, and will only have lens profiles they supply, and they do not have that lens yet.

Lensfun provides instructions for how you can request them to support it, which can be facilitated by taking some images for them to use in the calibration process. They also have instructions to allow you to perform calibratiion yourself, and submit it to them.

You can also install lens profiles (.lcp files) from Adobe DNG Converter, if you have that free program installed and if it provides support for that lens.
