Imaging Edge: EDIT, Why is Distortion compensation of Lens Correction tab disabled

Hello,

I would like to apply "Distortion compensation" of Lens Correction tab (SONY Imaging Edge: EDIT SW) on my ARW files from SONY a6300 (with lens E PZ 16-50mm, F3.5-5.6 OSS) but this options is disabled (grayed) for me.

JPEG files have applyed distortion compensation automaticaly by the camera, but its not applied on ARW files. I woul like to apply this correction also on ARW files but I can't, options is not active in my SW.

Can you please help me how to anable this "Distortion compensation" options for my camera and lens in Imaging Edge: EDIT SW ? Or should I use some another image processing SW ?

Thank you.

Hi Mario,
Thanks for your hint. I download ARW files from 7-different lens, and check it with EDIT tool of Imaging Edge suite.
6 lenses had a Distortion compensation enabled, and one (the same as my) disabled. See below.


Distortion compensation: Enabled
-----------------------------------
Sigma 30mm F1.4 DC DN Contemporary 016,
Sony FE 70-200mm F4 G OSS
Sony FE 85mm F1.4 GM,
Sony Carl Zeiss Sonnar T* E 24mm F1.8 ZA,
Sony Vario-Tessar T* E 16-70mm F4 ZA OSS
Sony Vario-Tessar T* FE 16-35mm F4 ZA OSS

Distortion compensation: Disabled
-----------------------------------
Sony E 16-50mm F3.5-5.6 PZ OSS

I am wondering that distortions compensation is applied on JPEGs in a6300 camera, but SONY do not include this algorithm to the SW Edge suite.
I am a new in photo tweaking, I do not want spend a many for “profi” soft yet. Is there some free SW which support lens distortions correction also on my SONY lens (Sony E 16-50mm F3.5-5.6 PZ OSS)?
Thank you.

Hello @_JanO_,

 

I would recommend to use "Affinity Photo" by Serif: https://affinity.serif.com/en-gb/photo/desktop/
