5D Mark III lens correction for Tamron SP

[Ozarker]

A week ago I decided to give the Tamron SP 15-30mm f/2.8 Di VC USD a chance based on the great reviews it gets all over the net. I have not been disappointed so far.

My question is this: Where do I find the lens aberration data to load into my camera? Is this even possible with a third party lens?

I've looked all over the net and cannot find anything about this. My cognitive ability isn't what it used to be either. For the past 6 months I've been having a lot of trouble remembering things and learning new things. That might be part of the problem too. I'm only 52, but it can be scary getting older.

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you all in advance.

I don't think its possible for 3rd party lenses.

I don't know of a way to load it on to the camera and use it in camera, but I do know that Camera RAW does have the correction profile available when I go to open my images in PhotoShop.

If you're will to wait until post processing to get things all straightened out, then it's pretty straight forward. Agreed though, it's an awesome lens-- I absolutely love it.

You are right. It is there in both Lightroom and Photoshop. I had somehow switched the camera to jpeg on both cards and the profile is not there for jpeg. Duh! It is there for raw... which is what I thought I was always shooting in. Thanks!

Yes, it is a great lens both aesthetically and and functionally.

You have to use photoshop or other 3rd party software. Canon is never going to load profiles for third party lenses into their camera, in fact, the camera does not even know it has a Tamron lens on it.

The lens sends a code to the camera telling the camera it is a Canon lens. The camera then makes corrections pertaining to that Canon lens.

Using RAW with third party lenses gets around some of the issues, but not AF corrections, or exposure corrections.

The camera does display that there is a Tamron lens, so it does know what is mounted. What the code sent to the camera is... I guess we have no idea. It sure doesn't correct for the Tamron though.

However, I do understand why Canon would not load data for third party lenses.

I've learned to correct the lens in Lightroom this weekend.

Thank you Mt. Spokane

You are right! I do learn something new occasionally.


Some third party lenses send a code to a Camera with a identifier which Canon writes into exif so you can see what lens was used. No image corrections are made for those codes, but they may determine which AF points can be used or other camera settings like aperture sizes, which is important. Tamron had to update firmware for a few lenses to correct the code data a few years back.


Here is a list of tags that are used by Canon cameras. These are internal to a camera, and probably updated with a firmware update. The list might not be totally up to date, YMMV.

Lenses that are totally manual and do not communicate with the camera are not in the list.

Where you see a Canon lens as being code 28, and third party lenses being 28.1, 28.2, 28.3, etc, they are saying to use the same camera settings as the Canon lens. That was the part I was referring to, but looking at the list, there are third party lenses with their own code, they must reserve the codes from Canon.

There is a big gap in the numbering between 255 and 488. I wonder if those are cinema lenses or P&S lenses.

You have to use photoshop or other 3rd party software. Canon is never going to load profiles for third party lenses into their camera, in fact, the camera does not even know it has a Tamron lens on it.

The lens sends a code to the camera telling the camera it is a Canon lens. The camera then makes corrections pertaining to that Canon lens.

Using RAW with third party lenses gets around some of the issues, but not AF corrections, or exposure corrections.

The camera does display that there is a Tamron lens, so it does know what is mounted. What the code sent to the camera is... I guess we have no idea. It sure doesn't correct for the Tamron though.

However, I do understand why Canon would not load data for third party lenses.

I've learned to correct the lens in Lightroom this weekend.

Thank you Mt. Spokane

You are right! I do learn something new occasionally.


Some third party lenses send a code to a Camera with a identifier which Canon writes into exif so you can see what lens was used. No image corrections are made for those codes, but they may determine which AF points can be used or other camera settings like aperture sizes, which is important. Tamron had to update firmware for a few lenses to correct the code data a few years back.


Here is a list of tags that are used by Canon cameras. These are internal to a camera, and probably updated with a firmware update. The list might not be totally up to date, YMMV.

Lenses that are totally manual and do not communicate with the camera are not in the list.

Where you see a Canon lens as being code 28, and third party lenses being 28.1, 28.2, 28.3, etc, they are saying to use the same camera settings as the Canon lens. That was the part I was referring to, but looking at the list, there are third party lenses with their own code, they must reserve the codes from Canon.

There is a big gap in the numbering between 255 and 488. I wonder if those are cinema lenses or P&S lenses.

Canon LensType Values

Decimal values have been added to differentiate lenses which would otherwise have the same LensType, and are used by the Composite LensID tag when attempting to identify the specific lens model.

Wow, that is a lot of information.

It wasn't hard to correct in post at all. I've noticed, though, that the closer walls are, the more distortion there is. Still, it was a breeze to deal with. I'm a happy camper. This is a very heavy lens and big.

I did try it out at the local RV dealer just to get an idea of how it handles in tight places. It is great in my book. I'm sure Canon's 14mm is wider. I can't imagine how wide the 11-24 is.

I'll not purchase another lens until I can scratch together enough for the 400mm II or the 600mm f/4. I won't go 3rd party for that.

Thanks for all the help!

That isn't true. Distortion is entirely consistent with distance.

Also, you can use the free Adobe Lens Profile Creator http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5489 to make profiles for any lens at any zoom length and any aperture. These custom made profiles are not difficult to make, the program even gives you a target to print to help the process, and can then be loaded into PS and LR and will appear in your normal lens profile panels.

Actually, the magnitude is more noticeable in narrow spaces. So it is true for this lens.

Adobe has the profile already.

Thanks!

Can you post some test shots to prove that because it would be very unusual?

I'll check it out in the next day or two. I'll try to make double sure the sensor is square with the target too. Thanks!

Actually, I have two shots here. The problem is I am pretty sure I was not square with the building in each shot. I believe we are talking about two different things. You are speaking about things in the same part of the frame at different distances. I am not.

You see, when I owned Canon's EFS 10-22mm and I went to the Las Vegas Strip (90 miles SW of me) everything, and I mean everything, leaned in towards the center top of the frame very harshly even if the subject was near the center of the frame (not at the left or right edge... but maybe half the way towards the center at the bottom and coming closer at the top. It was bad. I am not getting that type of barreling here. If anything, this lens seems to go the opposite way, but not nearly as extreme as my old 10-22.

In these two photos I got while waiting on an oil change (just trying out my new lens right after getting it), I do not have that problem. In fact, while I am not exactly square with the truck bed I have a hard time seeing any distortion at all in the truck bed, but I do in the building (I'm even less square with the building. However, things further from me (moving towards the center) are straighter.

I've got a few more photos taken inside some RVs where the keystoning is quite noticeable on the walls next to me, but not at the end of the small room. BUT, I may have no idea whatsoever what I am talking about either. My perceptions and reality may be quite different. Also, since I was not really testing for that, the problem may be that I was pointing the camera at a slight down angle.

These photos are not cropped. In the truck photo the camera is nearly resting on the tailgate. In the shop photo the camera is extremely close to the red post on the right. I really do not see any "stretching". If it is there it is very well controlled.

EDIT: There was correction provided by the profile in Lightroom. No cropping, though, was done. Sorry. Like I said... having some cognitive issues. I did not correct what the profile did. There could be some fine tuning done.
