Adam Bonn Posted January 13, 2022 Share #1 Posted January 13, 2022 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hi everyone, Not sure if this is a thing that's needed or not (I'm not an adobe CC subscriber) Anyway, I've used adobe DNG converter to convert an M11 dng to erm a dng, then extracted adobe's standard camera profile (using adobe's DNG profile editor*), and attached it here Maybe y'all CC users got this already, but if not or if you have pre-CC adobe, add this file to correct place** and you'll have the adobe file that supports the DNG in ACR/LR HTH someone? *these are all freeware tools from adobe so no one start jumping and down about hacking, copyright or crap like that x ** in Windows C:\Users\*YOUR USERNAME*\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles **in Mac (AFAIK...) Macintosh HD / Users /*YOUR USERNAME* / Library / Application Support / Adobe / CameraRaw / CameraProfiles / Adobe Standard (LEICA M11).dcp 4 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted January 13, 2022 Posted January 13, 2022 Hi Adam Bonn, Take a look here Leica M11 Adobe Profile. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
setuporg Posted January 13, 2022 Share #2 Posted January 13, 2022 (edited) Thank you Adam! Really great to have a DNG expert here. I’ve been a convert (pun intended) since a 2007 Santa Fe DAM workshop with Peter Krogh, using Lightroom 1.0-Beta. It’s great that Leica adopted it. One problem is that the DNG out of camera do not have the validation checksum, which would help ensure archive integrity. Wish Leica add it in camera! For now it’s a valid reason to run OOC DNGs through the Adobe DNG Converter upon ingestion. Edited January 13, 2022 by setuporg 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
1400700226 Posted January 13, 2022 Share #3 Posted January 13, 2022 Could you please share some raw comparisons of full frame 60 36 and 18 megapixel mode? I am curious how they do this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FWIW (believe it or not), I struggle to get my geek on if it's something I can't really do anything with, but if by learning about something I can change something that I get the benefit or the perceived benefit at least, then I'll make an effort... (as long as it's not language based, so so rubbish at that) I'll never write a RAW editor or make a camera, so knowing the DNG spec (or how to make a sensor etc) is but a passing interest... creating my own profiles is something that will have an impact on me, so I made the effort to try and get my head round what's happening in a dcp file, doesn't really make any difference to the profile really... like you don't need to know how a starter motor works in order to start a car!! 1 hour ago, setuporg said: ne problem is that the DNG out of camera do not have the validation checksum, which would help ensure archive integrity. Wish Leica add it in camera! If you're inclined.. get a leica dng that's never been in an adobe product, duplicate it, then open one of them in DNG converter then open each DNG with exiftool/rawdigger/whatever and be amazed at just how much stuff adobe feels it has to add in there...

I don't have the camera, I only lifted a DNG from DPR, converted it too adobe DNG, then lifted the profile out, so that folks like me with old adobe (or if adobe haven't released the profile to CC users yet, I dunno about that...) could see the adobe profile for it They'll be plenty of feedback on that soon enough and DPR have a suite of DNGs to play with!

I can see how there can be extra stuff, but a checksum validating original data, independent of the XML envelope and accretions, is priceless. Peter Krogh, as an advisor to Adobe on LR and DNG pioneer, pushed for it for archival purposes, and it got added. IMHO this is a crucial feature for integrity testing that must be added in-camera.

Looking forward to giving it a go tomorrow. ahahaha, if you don't have the latest adobe you can use dng converter to convert your Z9 (or whatever) RAWs into DNGs to open in your Lightroom 3 (or whatever), so this must mean doing that embeds something (a .dcp file) into the DNG... ...not at all hard to find it and take it out! I was planning a fun day of M11 DNG acquisition (the actual camera is beyond me) and editing... But then my macbook pro turned up a week early... I've never used a mac in my life and I've been on windows since the 90s, so I've been having a fun (largely to be fair) day with that instead Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Bonn Posted January 14, 2022 Author Share #10 Posted January 14, 2022 switching from windows to Mac... anyways, long story short.. Last night I installed C1 on the mac and it now has their correct profile for the M11 so all you C1 using M11 buyers out there just need to check for updates (or whatever it is in C1) 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
