Gimplensfun for 2.10 crashes during launch of Gimp
#2
Hate to be beat but...Tried all sorts without any success, that gimp-lensfun plugin is old. Although the installer is 2015, the code goes back 5 -6 years. Keep running into a MSVC++ runtime error in Windows, 32 bit issues. I can get it running in linux.

Quote:It's hard to believe that I would be the only person who uses this plugin, and who encounters this problem since the 2.10 version

That might not be too far from the truth. The plugin looks largely abandoned, users moving on to applications such as Rawtherapee which is able to apply lens corrections.

If you are not taking RAW photos and need gimplensfun to adjust jpegs then I would keep that copy of Gimp 2.8 around since at least it is working. You can install Gimp 2.10 along-side Gimp 2.8, various ways depending what you have, but it is a pain. Want Gimp 2.10? Use Partha's version http://www.partha.com Installs to a different folder than Gimp 2.8 This has the nufraw plugin which uses lensfun for corrections but only for RAW images. screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/wm8NynP.jpg

The only other way I came across is using command line ImageMagick, see https://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/lens/ Not straight forward but once the settings for your camera are established could be used to quickly pre-process before using Gimp. Ask questions here: https://www.imagemagick.org/discourse-server Users section, they are very helpful.
