https://youtu.be/tGVpM3KXBCQ Well…I have 3 cameras again. I'm hopeless, seriously. I need help. G.A.S. is real and I have no cure, lol, but allow me to attempt to justify my purchase of the Fujifilm X-T2 to the gods of photography gear. First off, I've always wanted to own an X-T2 again since the day I let... Continue Reading →
“STREET SAGE” – FUJIFILM FILM SIMULATION RECIPE
https://youtu.be/r9MyvmG-i8Y As with many of my recipes, Street Sage is a result of experimenting. I wanted to see what would happen if you took the rich Velvia and reduced color, contrast and gave it a slight green tint. I like these experiments. I think you can get some interesting results depending on what you're shooting... Continue Reading →
“RADIANT CHROME” – NEW FUJIFILM FILM SIMULATION RECIPE
https://youtu.be/Oesy73bEnNE I wanted to make a new Classic Chrome based recipe with increased color and sharpness but keep NR low and add grain. I think something cool happens with mixing these type of adjustments. I hope you guys have fun with it! Image samples are below the recipe settings. Update: I’m currently having WordPress issues...

MY FUJIFILM X-H1 (Update: I’m Keeping It)
https://youtu.be/Je5BY9BZINs Last week I posted a video that was just a long rambling video of thoughts about my Fujifilm X-T4. This week I decided to make a similar video about my X-H1. Last month I had posted that I was thinking of selling my X-H1 and getting a different "second" Fujifilm camera. Last year I... Continue Reading →

https://youtu.be/Nd66pmEE8ao I'm working on more well thought out video subjects but in the meantime I just felt like talking about my X-T4 a little bit. So that's what my latest YouTube video is, a 20 plus minute rambling on the X-T4. It's definitely not a review as there are a ton of things I didn't... Continue Reading →

ME AND MY NEW FUJIFILM X-T4
A couple of weeks ago I decided to trade in a handful of photography gear to trim my collection of stuff down a bit. With my trade-ins I was able to get a Fujifilm X-T4. I didn't originally set out to get one but it just worked out. This camera was on my wishlist for... Continue Reading →
“BLEACH WASH 2” – FILM SIMULATION RECIPE
Ever since I created my first Bleach Wash recipe I knew I wanted to revisit this look and create another variation. Just like Bleach Wash 1 I created this on my X-T1 but I tried to keep this recipe compatible with as many X-Series cameras as possible. This should work on X-Pro1 and X-E1 cameras...

“DOWNTOWN TRAFFIC” – FILM SIMULATION RECIPE
I'm keeping this blog entry for this recipe short and sweet. I wanted to create a new B&W recipe that would look good in both daylight and night settings. I love shooting neon signs in B&W and thought it might be cool to see how something like this would do with that. I also wanted... Continue Reading →

Mine may not be the same as yours and vice versa... Continue Reading →
