Hi altogether,
I applied lens correction to hundreds of images in different film rolls
(and also physical directories) before I recognized that it does not
work as expected - see below.
Is there a way to undo this operation? I prefere no correction over the
wrong one.
thanks for any possible hint
regards
Bernhard

I noticed that some time ago:
http://sourceforge.net/p/darktable/mailman/darktable-users/thread/537C49FB.4000108%40gourichon.org/#msg32363060
...although I seem to remember there is an issue open on redmine, I
can't find it. It renders the autoapply lens-correction quite unusable.
I think that the module should have two different "auto" ticks, one for
the lens make/model and the other for the focal length/distance etc
parameters, so that you can decide what will be applied as-is and what
will be recalculated. By I admit I did not know the internals of
darktable, and I have no idea on how complex could be implementing this
in a backward-compatible way...
BTW if you read the linked thread, there is a similar problem for
auto-exposure module, and I do not know if for others modules.
Summarizing, there is not a clear way to separate "reapply with exactly
this parameters" or "reapply recalculating the auto part". In the case
of the lens correction module is even more complex, given that sometime
you want to force one of the thing (model) and not the other (focal
length, etc.).

Yes, I must confirm. In the current form automatic lens correction is
useless.
- as a precondition to get an entry in global settings I have to
store a preset in the module.
- this fixes focal length, aperture etc.
- autoapply will apply e. g. distortion correction for 39mm focal
lenght to 24mm pictures => result awful
So to get this working as expected I would have to store hundreds of
combinations of focal length, aperture, focal distance as presets - no
way - at least for me.
btw.: my original problem is solved: the string of lens name had been
somewhat cut and deleted the closing '%' - and I did not see that
because the input box is too short for the full entry ...

in "global settings" go to the rightest of the four tabs - there
you can set default behaviour - theoretically.
Thanks for the hint. The way to add one is actually though the
module, as described here:
http://www.darktable.org/usermanual/ch03s02s02.html.php [2]
The trouble is that this applies the settings exactly as I store
them, including lens model, focal length, etc, what I want to do is
have lens correction applied and automatically apply the correct,
relevant settings. Is there a way to do this?
Thanks, Jamie
