Hi, i've latest lightroom version and when import .gpr (gopro hero 5 raw) files from my gopro, looks like they are modified by lightroom in import phase. I use the function "protune" with native WB and Flat colour so the JPEG has a totally flat colour but if I open the raw .gpr files in lightroom (and even camera raw) they haven't flat colour like JPEG but looks modified by lightroom (saturation, WB ecc.). There is a setting that i can change for have the flat colour from protune?
Sorry for my english.
Thanks, Simone

Hi simonec,
Please check that you have not applied any develop preset on the import, refer the below screenshot.
Thanks,

See if the video at the link below clarify this issue.
Lightroom processes the raw file data using their own propriety rendering and profile for the camera. Lightroom will ignore any special settings you may have selected in your camera.

thanks for answer. Video respond to my answer, but in the video there is a lot of camera matching profile but I've only one and i can't change. I've done a small video of my import workflow

Is this a new behavior since updating to the current Lr? If it is try resetting your preferences.

When any program displays a raw file, it must use what LR calls a "camera profile" to interpret the raw sensor data. There is no inherent or "correct" way to interpret that sensor data. In particular, a camera profile that shows colors as "flat" is no more "correct" than one that shows colors more naturalistically. A camera profile isn't "modifying" the white balance or tone curve relative to some underlying absolute standard -- it's just providing one interpretation of the raw sensor data.
LR often includes multiple camera profiles for a given camera model, providing different interpretations of the raw sensor data, e.g. Adobe Standard, Camera Standard, Camera Vivid etc. None of these is more "correct" than the other -- they're just different interpretations of the sensor data, intended to provide different looks.
From the point of view of preserving image information for later editing, there isn't any advantage to having a camera profile that produces the camera-standard look versus one that produces the flat look of unadjusted log-encoded video (e.g. Protune). The raw sensor data is still available no matter the starting camera profile, and by applying the proper edits, you can end up with the same final look.
I can't find any sample Hero5 .gpr files to download, but it appears there is only one camera profile available, and it is embedded in the .gpr file by GoPro.
If you wish to have your raws start with the same look as your unadjusted Protune video so that you can apply similar adjustments to both and get a similar final look, you could adjust the LR tone curve and white balance, save those settings as a develop preset, and then apply that preset automatically when you import Hero5 raw photos.
