Reala ace missing from RAF files

Hi

Downloaded the newest firmware and have shot a few test photos with the Reala Ace profile. For now it only seems to work with being burned into the jpeg files. When I looked through the camera matching profiles in lightroom it contained every other color profile than Reala. I heard from someone that the X100VI has that embedded in the Raf files, does anyone know if this is true? It would make sense for the H2S to have the profiles embedded as well. If one cannot re add the profile in post it makes the update kind of meh. At least for the ones who like to shoot raw.

Hoping this is an oversight and will get included. Would appreciate of anyone has the specs on this, (or a fix.)

When I look in Lightroom, under colour profile, camera matching, I see Reala Ace as a choice. But I've been lead to believe that those are Adobe's versions, not the actual Fuji simulations.

Is your Adobe Camera Raw and Lightroom up to date?

Lightroom Classic V 13.4

Camera Raw V 16.4

Hi

 

Both Lightroom and cameraraw are upgraded to those versions yes. Are you using an H2S and getting reala ace? I have 19 camera matching profiles as of now. Maybe it could help to format the memory card? If RAF files from before the firmware that do not contain that profile live side by side with the new files. But the Exif info should exist individually for the files I think. So by common logic that should not play any part.

I have an X-T5, and this was before the firmware update V4 that added the Reala Ace to the camera. I'm pretty sure my Lightroom was showing 20 camera matching profiles.

Give it time. The firmware is new and Adobe haven't got around to including Reala Ace in the list of film simulations allowed with the X-H2S. They only allow film simulations supported by the camera and create their own versions of those film simulations.

You can be assured that the X-H2S has the code embedded in the RAF file (and also a preview jpg with the film simulation applied).

You can prove to yourself that the RAF file includes the Reala Ace simulation by opening the file in Fujifilm X Raw Studio.

I think that must be the case. Did some tests.

 

Can confirm that reala shows up as a profile in fuji raw for h2s. 

Nuked the memory card, it did not make any difference. Importing as Raf vs Dng did nothing.

Guess it`s a lightroom thing. Looking forward to them fixing it. Weird if it works on xt-5 though.

Thanks for all the replies and help y`all

      Looking for Full Frame lenses to adapt to GFX

      By thelostkiwi · Posted

      I also use a Nikon to GFX Fringer and it works very well.  24mm f/1.8 vignettes so best used on 35mm mode.  50mm f/1.8 covers the entire frame very well with no issues and is a superb little lens. 105mm Sigma vignettes slightly but is perfectly usable. 300 f/4 likewise the 105.  I have a 70-200 f/20+.8 incoming to test so will report back but I'm expecting a little vignetting.  Even in 35mm mode the image is still 60MP and if you're prepared to manually crop and correct you can get 80-90 MP images.  I also have a C/Y to GFX adapter.  The 24mm Sigma Superwide vignettes strongly. Ditto 28-80 Zeiss Sonnar. 80-200 f/4 Sonnar is perfectly usable. All work fine as 35mm mode lenses.  I also have an M42 adapter which I tried with the Carl Zeiss Jena 135mm f/3.5 with good results.

      Image correction with GF20-35

      Thank you. I will research it.

      Ahh, the infamous brick wall photos… 😀 According to internet lore, if the dng converter does not properly apply the corrections, you can have it apply custom profiles that should work for you. How to do that is waaaaaay outside of this comment’s scope, but there are plenty of sites listed in the search engines that step you through the processes. Best wishes.

      Image correction with GF20-35

      Jerry Thank you very much. That is extremely helpful. It seems that the camera and the lens have the latest firmware update, so it appears that the corrections should be applied automatically. The lens arrived this afternoon and I took some quick test shots, in which the correct lens information appeared in the EXIF files, so that sounds good. I used Adobe DNG converter to convert the Raw (RAF) files, and then opened the DNG files and saved them in PSD format. However, with a beautiful, clear, cloudless blue sky, there were no lines near the edges to check if distortion had been corrected. Another day I plan to photograph a brick wall. Thank you for your help.

      Typically you need to make sure the lens is compatible with the camera, i.e. check the lens compatibility charts for your camera, then make sure the respective firmwares are updated so older issues are resolved. After that, each lens has a manufacturer’s profile which will be embedded into the raw file meta data for the images captured using that lens. From there, it is up to the raw conversion software to apply the lens correction to the image. Different converters do that differently, some automatically, some only if a setting is turned on. For in-camera jpegs, the on-board converter does the corrections automatically, assuming the camera recognizes the lens, it applies a generic profile otherwise. I do not know if that can be turned off or not.
