Re: [darktable-dev] Lens correction with FF lenses used on APS-C
In the database (in liblensfun-data package, file slr-canon.xml for Canon), you will find the various bodies / lenses. For each lens, there is a comment like: This allows you to know how the lens was calibrated.

On my system the camera and correct lens is found by default which is what I want!

Thanks for your answers guys. Simon, I'm curious to know why to you it's not the best idea ?

Re: [darktable-dev] Lens correction with FF lenses used on APS-C
Hi, it does, as long as lensfun can find the lens in its database. I've been using full-frame-only lenses on both my Nikon D750 (full-frame) and D7100 (APS-C) for years. (It's not the best idea, though, so I'm about to replace the D7100 with a second full-frame body). cheers, Simon Am 23.02.19 um 14:42 schrieb Florian W: > Hi, > I happen to use on my Canon 750D (APC-C) 2 lenses designed for full > frame (Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM and Canon EF 28mm f/2.8 IS USM) > I wondered if the lens correction module takes into account that the > camera is full frame or APS-C to apply the proper correction ? > > Can someone tell me ? > Thanks > > ___ > darktable developer mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail to > darktable-dev+unsubscr...@lists.darktable.org ___ darktable developer mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail to darktable-dev+unsubscr...@lists.darktable.org
Re: [darktable-dev] Lens correction with FF lenses used on APS-C
I believe it does. Changing body type (full-frame instead of aps-c) changes geometry. Body type description is nothing more than just a file in /usr/share/lensfun/version_1 with cropfactor parameter being the only meaningful information used for geometry calculaton. Timur.

[darktable-dev] Lens correction with FF lenses used on APS-C
Hi, I happen to use on my Canon 750D (APC-C) 2 lenses designed for full frame (Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM and Canon EF 28mm f/2.8 IS USM) I wondered if the lens correction module takes into account that the camera is full frame or APS-C to apply the proper correction ? Can someone tell me ? Thanks ___ darktable developer mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail to darktable-dev+unsubscr...@lists.darktable.org
