Glad to hear you find the profile useful.

I used 13×21, 36 points test chart, printed on A4. If I could, I would print on A3.
9 shots at f/3.5, 5.6, 7.2, 8, 10 - from two distances: 90 shots total. On some shots I got error in Lens Creator, I wonder if it's because of unsufficient lighting.
The reasons why ALC rejects some photos are unclear for me. Maybe it is light, maybe it is chart size. So, main directions are: print bigger charts, give more light.

Hi! Unfortunately the profile download link is broken (404 error) and it redirects to your photography page (the profile link in the blog on that page is also broken) - is there any chance I could get it some other way? Thank you!

The server was broken, I just repaired the link. Thank you for noticing! Now it should work fine.

The link is dead again. Could you please fix it? Thanks!

Seems, now it ok. Maybe it was because of recent LJ DDoSes?
Anyway, to avoid future inconviences, I've made a backup location on megauploads. You can download the file here.

What do I need to do with the LCP file?
How do I add the profile to lightroom?

akry January 13 2012, 23:11:36 UTC

Just put it into "%APPDATA%\Adobe\CameraRaw\LensProfiles\1.0" folder and restart Lightroom.

I downloaded camera raw, I put the file into the floder you just said, restarted lightroom and I still cant see the lens profile in lightroom..

akry January 14 2012, 18:00:55 UTC

Do you try it on photos taken with Canon 7D + Samyang?
Putting all together:
1. Canon 7D & Samyang Fisheye.
2. lcp into %APPDATA%\Adobe\CameraRaw\LensProfiles\1.0 (in W7 it worth to try also c:\ProgramData\Adobe\CameraRaw\LensProfiles\1.0\)

Ah no I didnt, I have canon 500d ant I tought it doesnt matter because the both cameras have the same sensor size.
Is there any way to make this profile work with my 500d? I really need it..
I changed the EXIF to Canon EOS 7D and it didnt help.

akry January 15 2012, 00:20:53 UTC

Actually .lcp is a plain text file.
Open it in any text editor and try to play with camera model strings like this:

It works!! :)
Thanks alot, you helped me very much!

akry January 15 2012, 13:46:07 UTC

Welcome :)
What exactly you've changed to make it work? It could be useful for others.

thenewlegend January 15 2012, 15:51:59 UTC

I opened the file in notepad and than I searched (CTRL+F) for the word "7D" and I changed it to 500D (need to change all of them) and then I changed the profile name to canon 500d.
after that I had to get into CameraRaw first and than it can work on lightroom.

thenewlegend January 19 2012, 15:05:34 UTC

Weird, I cant see the profiles in lightroom anymore.. I dont know why
But I can see them on CameraRaw
