No automatic lens correction for Nikon Z series lenses
I tested Capture One 12 with the 24-70S/4 today and found that C1P does not know the lens or use also the NEF data to correct the lens.
I checked same file with LR (8.1) and DXO PL (2.1) and both correct barrel distortion and vignetting, bu C1P 12 not.
The new NEF format of the Z series includes all data required to correct the Z lenses into NEF Exif data, but it seems that C1P seems not to use it, also not in generic manufacturer profile, it of course does not list the lenses as well!
Is this a known issue which is scheduled to be corrected?
I do not have problems with 35/50S lenses so much because their barrel distortion is relative small and constant, but for 24-70/4 it's opposite on both ends of focal length and you have to do it (with C1P) completely manual!

This is a known issue in the sense that there is no lens correction data included in the CO Pro 12.0.0 release yet. No schedule is given if/when this will be included.
Personally I a quite hopeful this will be the case in the near future, but that statement is totally on my behalf. đ0 -
Also when is attached supported Nikkor lens via FTZ adapter (for exapmle AF-S 105/1.4) will C1 not use profile automagically and must be manually selected. 0 -

Interesting. Is lens information in the metadata (EXIF) when using the FTZ adapter?0 -
I checked on some shots with Nikon 70-200/f4 and found in exif:
Lens Type : G VR
Lens : 70-200mm f/4
but I did not have photos on D850 to compare âšī¸
On Tamron 85/1.8 it was on Z7:
Lens Type : G VR [6]
Lens : 85mm f/1.8
Lens F Stops : 6.33
Lens Data Version : 0800
Lens Info : 85mm f/1.8
Lens Make :
Lens Model :
Lens Serial Number :
Lens Spec : 85mm f/1.8 G VR [6]
The same lens on D850 showed:
Lens Type : G VR [6]
Lens Data Version : 0204
Lens : 85mm f/1.8
Lens Focus Function Buttons : AF Lock Only
Lens ID : Unknown (E5 4C 62 62 14 14 C9 4E)
Lens Spec : 85mm f/1.8 G VR [6]
New Z lenses have different entries:
Lens Info : 35mm f/1.8
Lens Make : NIKON
Lens Model : NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.8 S
Lens Serial Number : 20006380
It seems that lens ID is missing in Z7 with FTZ because I did not see it in there at all!
So Exif treatment in Z6/7 RAW seems to be different and therefore COP cannot find the right lens....0 -
Interesting, Frank.
I think it would make sense to first see how native lenses on the Z series are recognised and supported. Second, whether adapted lenses are recognised and supported.
For the EOS R system it would probably be the same, native versus adapted. We'll see.0
