# Lens Profile Selection

LensNode ships with a library of lens profiles, each created from real-world capture and profiling. You choose one with three cascading dropdowns. For the full list of available lens presets, see [Lens Profiles](https://videovillage.com/learn/lensnode/full-guide/lens-selection#lens-profiles) below.

![The LensNode Manufacturer dropdown open, listing lens manufacturers including Angénieux, Asahi, Canon, Cooke, DZOFilm, Deakinizer, Helios, Kowa, LOMO, and Leica](https://videovillage.com/images/learn/lensnode/lens-selection-manufacturer-f46a0b39.png)

## Manufacturer / Family / Variant

- **Manufacturer** narrows the library to the manufacturer of the original lens.
- **Family** selects a series of lens created by that manufacturer.
- **Variant** picks the specific lens. Most of the time this is a focal length and lens speed, but can also be a particular unique variant.

Choosing a lens here sets every one of LensNode’s eight characteristics to that lens profile at once.

_Host differences: this behaves differently in [Final Cut Pro](https://videovillage.com/learn/lensnode/host-differences/final-cut-pro#lens-menu)._

## The expanding profile library

The library grows as we add more lens profiles to it. This is time-consuming work, but we try to add as many as we can with each new release. Because these profile selection dropdowns are essentially a shortcut for the underlying per-characteristic settings, you can actually change each effect layer to use a different lens profile. See [Mix & Match](https://videovillage.com/learn/lensnode/full-guide/mix-and-match) to combine traits from several profiles at once.

## Lens Profiles

Every profile below is built from real-world capture of an actual lens. Choose any of them with the **Manufacturer** , **Family** , and **Variant** dropdowns above, or assign a different profile to each characteristic with [Mix & Match](https://videovillage.com/learn/lensnode/full-guide/mix-and-match). The library expands as we add more lens profiles to it over time.
