Lens correction data embedded in some RAWs may be sufficient for distortion correction but many programs cannot make use of it because the data format of the embedded corrections is proprietary and not open. In general, most lenses do not communicate any correction data. You may very well be...

Yes, that's true but I was referring to Adobe's software Lightroom which is proprietary & the code is not made public. In my opinion, Adobe's .dng is open to attract customers into buying/using Adobe software. Adobe even offers a free software to convert other raw images to .dng which as I...

DNG is a RAW image file. It is Adobe’s proprietary image standard that was created to store image data in a generic, highly-compatible format, unlike RAW files that have specific formats based on manufacturer and camera type such as Canon and Nikon, etc.. Although DNG was invented by Adobe and...

It's interesting isn't it? Is DJI instructing it's own software on it's own quads to wright correction data into the raw images that some but not all raw editor software can read? If they are, it would be to DJI's advantage to make that data public and accessible to all and keep all DJI pilots...

They can remove me as well since I'd love to see U.S.A. get competitive and putting people to work making drones here on the homefront.

As far as I know, all raw editors use correction files that are included in the software. The software installs new profiles/correction files during updates. This is necessary because new cameras and lenses are constantly being developed. In the case of Lightroom they are probably .lcp or maybe...

How is it extracted and used?

The image editor did not have a correction for the M2P camera. Nor did lensfun. I put one together by luck and looking at other camera correction files.

For now, I fixed it close enough. I added an xml correction file where all the others are stored & named it Hasselblad.xml Here is what's in the file : <lensdatabase version="1"> <camera> <maker>Hasselblad</maker> <model>L1D-20c</model> <model lang="en">DJI Mavic 2...

Hello all. I'm hopeful to get some help/explanation for what's going on here. Thank you in advance. The image below includes screen-shots of both the .dng (upper) and the .jpg (lower) from a M2P. They were combined into a single image for ease of comparison. The camera was set to record both raw...

Failed twice. 3rd attempt underway. I really have better things to do than babysit :confused: Update : This time it added a 'Transmitting' session after the download. Like the first two attemps, it hangs a while @ 16% then again @ 98%. Update : After an hour … success. Good grief! Good luck...

Yes, but silly isn't the word I was thinking of when I took a double take after answering their questions and seeing that. After working closely with Federal regulations for 34 years on military aircraft contracts, nothing surprises me anymore. Good flying & thanks for the responses. And my...
