Photo AI vignettes (if that is the right term) DNG files from a Leica Q. Also significantly distorts the image as you move from the centre to the edge of the frame. Does not occur with DNGs/NEFs from other cameras including a Leica 10-R. Occurs with/without lens corrections being applied. I’ve checked versions 1.2.4-1.2.9 and they all give the same results. Running on a MacBook Air (M2).
Hey @jeffrey.petzke, can you upload one of your Leica files for us to test? You should be able to attach it directly to this forum thread if its smaller than 65MB – if it’s larger feel free to use the link below.
This is likely due to an issue with the built-in lens correction on this DNG file getting lost during processing.
To prevent the distortion, I recommend converting the DNG to a TIF and processing the TIF.
With Lightroom Classic you can easily do this using the Photo > Edit in > Topaz Photo AI workflow.

If you have an example file on hand please send it to Dropbox so we can look into fixing this.
