Lens profile update needed when using the Olympus MC-20 convertor

DxO PhotoLab Feature requests

Hello,

We will have the converter in a few days so we will be able to add lens correction profiles on the beginning of next year as planning is done.

Hi Marie

Thanks for the positive reply :slight_smile:

IMO the two updated profiles cannot come soon enough, as I will have to avoid too much use of the MC-20 until then :wink: :smiley:

Please, can I ask you if this converter can be used at PL2 or I will need PL3?

Thank you for your response

Hello @miksik,

modules will be compatible with PL2 and PL3.

Hello Marie,

thank you!
At the meantime I bought upgrade of PL2 :grinning: I hope that at near future at PL3 will be included support for Olympus TG-6 (as well as TG-5 previously).

Hello,

modules for M.Zuiko Digital ED 40-150mm F2.8 PRO with TC x2.0 Zuiko and M.Zuiko Digital ED 300mm F4 IS Pro with TC x2.0 Zuiko are in progress.
We are too short for the upcoming release but they will be available on January.

Concerning TG-6 it is on roadmap, I hope to be able to add it soon.

Regards,
Marie

Hi Marie

Your update is much appreciated…as you know silence is not golden, so updates even if not what you think users might want to hear are still good to ‘tell’.

Early(?) January is not too far off…yet :wink:

Hi Marie @Marie

I would like to check that you are still on track for this in January (before the 31st day please :slight_smile: ) ???

Why do I ask, well the DxO supported camera and lens profiles page says 2020-02 and that means February to me :frowning:

TIA :slight_smile:

Hello @BoxBrownie,

yes, modules with MC20 are almost ready and will be released in January.
In the roadmap I just take some room in case unexpected issues happened and delay the release.

Regards,
Marie

Hi Marie @Marie

Thanks for the welcome confirmation :slight_smile:

In regard to the roadmap…got it! Very much a sales technique “under promise & over deliver” :wink:

I have just a warning for modules with MC20 : modules for Olympus cameras will be released in January but modules for Panasonic cameras will be released with next version of PhotoLab 3 (something like 3.2, planned at end of February or beginning of March) and won’t be compatible with previous version.
Lens identification of micro 4/3 lenses doesn’t work the same way in Olympus and Panasonic and for Panasonic we can have, like now, to update the code.

Marie

I bought my mc-20 july 8. 2019, it now over 6 months I haven’t had the full use of DxO Photolab. Same thing when I bought my EM1x, it took forever before I even could handle the raw files.

Of course it takes time, but why do we need a new release to get new modules, they should be released as soon as ready. I know I am a first mover but it is rather annoying to wait and it really hurts the Photolab value. Specially the raw file support for EM1x was bad, most other software had support.
Kind regards

Hi Marie @Marie

It has been a while now and we are @ 21st January…so have you an update as to when in January the new profiles will be released for the MC-20 and its two compatible lenses for the Olympus camera bodies???

TIA :slight_smile:

Hello @BoxBrownie,

modules will be released on January 19th.

Modules will be for Olympus cameras with “M.Zuiko Digital ED 40-150mm F2.8 PRO with TC x2.0 Zuiko” and “M.Zuiko Digital ED 300mm F4 IS Pro with TC x2.0 Zuiko”. They will be comptible with PhotoLab 2 and 3 (depending of your camera).

Unfortunately modules for Panasonic micro 4/3 cameras will be released only in March and will be compatible only with PhotoLab 3 as we had to modify some Exif reading information.

Regards,
Marie

Hi Marie @Marie

:crazy_face: the 19th :thinking::thinking: for fear of stating the obvious, today is 21st January :wink:

I looked, before I posted my question above, via the PL3 GUI for the new modules and they were not there :frowning:

I surmise you might have meant the 29th…though that is for all practical purposes only just still in January :grin:???

Sorry, I indeed meant 29th of January :sweat_smile:

Regards,
Marie

Hi Marie,

I just downloaded the newest PL3 update from today and I can’t seem to find the MC-20 module. Am I doing something wrong or it finally didn’t make it to this update?

Thanks in advance for your answer,

Best regards,

Julien.

Hello @Junmoe,

It’s normal, update will be available around 3pm, Paris time (France).

Marie

Hi all

FWIW I have found the 4 relevant profiles and downloaded them manually into PL3.

I just have to see how they handle the files as needed :slight_smile:

Thanks to Marie and the team :smiley:

PS with the anticipated new body E-M1mk3 ~ heads up there will be early adopters (unlikely to be me) who will need the profiles for that body etc :wink:
