Hello, until today I have scanned my negatives without checking which profile I had, this evening reading on the forum I understood that you need to have the characteristic one of each camera, I tried to search in the list of various profiles, there are many but no one that matches a camera, not even the Sony one, @nate would it be possible to have it ? Am I doing something wrong? Thank you ! ---

On my Mac, I see the profile(s) for the A7R Mark 2, highlighted in the screenshot below: ![Bildschirm 2023-01-30 um 10.51.28](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex029/uploads/negativelabpro/original/2X/7/7589357297fa4e001f8979b427319240eda9ba14.png) The profile should get selected automatically and present itself in Lightroom Classic’s Develop module as highlighted with the green arrow: ![Bildschirm 2023-01-30 um 10.58.00](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex029/uploads/negativelabpro/original/2X/f/faebd7a781753c9e3f4f8712a913ee0cd1873610.png) If you can’t see the the profile after invoking NLP, something went wrong somehow and then @nate can possibly provide some support. ---

thanks for the reply, but in which folder are the profiles stored? I’ve tried looking for them and can’t find them. As you can see from the image I didn’t find them looking in the finder, in Lr I can choose those of version 2.3 but they are not specific to each camera ![Schermata 2023-01-30 alle 11.27.03](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex029/uploads/negativelabpro/original/2X/3/311216d8fc8701043aabfdf5821a205f39aed77e.jpeg) ---

The current version (2.4.2) of NLP only advertises that a profile has been applied. It does not say in detail which one it is - until you then select the rendering in the second tab of NLP, after the conversion has been made. Then, the profile might read e.g. Negative Lab v2.3 - Frontier. ---

So I won’t see the Sony wording anywhere anymore? So if I see NPL 2.3 am I calm? ---

> [@maxpina](#): > > So if I see NPL 2.3 am I calm? It seems to work that way. Are your conversions (including adjustments) looking okay? If yes, you can relax. If no, attach one of your files, e.g. with dropbox, google drive or a sharing service like wetransfer. ---

Thanking goodness the photos are fine, probably also because doing only black and white the profiles issue is less problematic, I think… ---

> [@maxpina](#): > > doing only black and white the profiles issue is less problematic No problem at all…you can convert B&W by flipping the tone curve from 0/0, 255/255 to 0/255, 255/0. No need for NLP at all in that case.
