Hi lovely people,
We have recently been shooting with the Canon C400 and the latest Aximmetry version. Absolutely love that Aximmetry now supports the Canon Lens data, its so easy to work with zoom/focus now without going through the hassle of calibrating.
However it doesn't seem to send accurate data when its set to full frame? When the lens is at 24mm, the focal length in Aximmetry says 28-ish. when I divide that 28 by 24 (1,1666) and then multiply that by 28 again, and then plug that into the focal length, its rock-solid. To me that's pretty odd but somehow it works.
Also Lens Distortion doesn't work in 2025.1, it doesnt provide any data and it doesnt distort anything. It did work in 2024.3 but its way to heavy.
Thanks!
Niels
What lens are you using? Have you verified it’s supported for sending lens data? I’ve had near perfect results with the C400 with 2025.1. We did enable the internal lens distortion correction in the camera, so there was very little distortion, but I did see a difference turning the Lens distortion on in Aximmetry. Are you sure you’ve turned it on? I didn’t check the focal length value in Aximmetry, but couldn’t it be that the value in Aximmetry takes the (slight) sensor crop on the Canon into account? Alternatively, it could be that the delta head offset calibration I did in the Advanced Calibrator compensated for the (possible) inaccurate focal length value. In any case, it would be great if Aximmetry could confirm that everything is working properly with the C400.
What do you mean by the lens distortion being “heavy”?
