EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM Aberration data needed

DarkJedi
Apprentice

Hello,

Getting back into photography from my 35mm film days. I bought a 6D and while my EF 50mm f/1.8 STM was found in the EOS utility and uploaded its aberration data, my EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM is not listed. I looked on the "great internet machine" for information and all I found was vintage lenses like this were dropped from the utility. 

Is there a way to add the data manually? If so, how do I get the values to add the 6D body?

Any and all help/ideas/suggestions are appreciated.  Thanks in Advance.

That is a very old lens (circa 1995) and it may not have lens data since it is pre-digital era.

Double check the lens model number.  It could be 70-300mm, not 75-300mm.

In Canon DPP software, I see it as an option to download.  I am not certain I understand the question.

You didn't mention what editor you are using if it is Photoshop/Lightroom you can use the Adobe Lens Profile Creator to make your own for any lens. Then create a preset that applies upon import to LR. Done slam bam thank you mam. Get on the "great internet machine" where there will be hundreds of how-to videos if you don't know how to. 😁
