My goal is to remove the lens correction data from raw images being used by Adobe Lightroom to forcefully correct optical lens distortion.

exiftool.exe -listw

says the GeometricDistortionParams tag in my image is writable.

However,

exiftool.exe -GeometricDistortionParams=

says

Warning: Sorry, GeometricDistortionParams is not writable
Nothing to do.


How do I remove the GeometricDistortionParams tag from an image?

Thank you.

Strange.  The only place I can find GeometricDistortionParams is on the FujiFilm tag names page, where it says it is not writable.
* Did you read FAQ #3 and use the command listed there?
* Please use the Code button for exiftool code/output.
 
* Please include your OS, Exiftool version, and type of file you're processing (MP4, JPG, etc).

(not writable)

Unfortunately, none of the FujiIFD tags are currently writable.
