aklein55 Posted December 4, 2017 Share #1 Posted December 4, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) I'm using a Zeiss Otus 55mm f1.4 Nikon mount with a Novoflex adapter. Any idea how to code the lens with the SL. Thx! Adam Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irakly Shanidze Posted December 4, 2017 Share #2 Posted December 4, 2017 You do not need to code it. This lens has no distortions Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivar B Posted December 4, 2017 Share #3 Posted December 4, 2017 I don`t think you can get the Nikon adaptor to read a code, but I am not 100 % certain about this. I would perhaps try it out and select a lens manually in the menu. This is a steller lens if course but as with every other lens there is some vignetting wide open and perhaps coding might help a little in this respect. Try out 1.4/50mm and see how that works.

aklein55 Posted December 4, 2017 Author Share #5 Posted December 4, 2017 Thanks. I can also correct in Photoshop - probably not a big deal. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irakly Shanidze Posted December 5, 2017 Share #6 Posted December 5, 2017 What you should never do is to apply profiles of other lenses in-camera. Profiles include information for distortions, vignetting, CA and color corrections that are individual for each and every lens. If there is no in-camera profile for the lens, it is always better to leave it alone and then later apply a profile in LR/ACR. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nearly a perfect quote of what I always say and write, Irakly Glad to have you onboard, totally agreed. Best regards, Vieri Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a general rule, you are 100% right, but there are profiles that work well with specific lenses, at least in M cameras (ie. ZM 35/2.8 with M 28/2.8 v3/v4 profile and so on) Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
