    “C-3400” – Film Simulation Recipe

    If you’ve browsed through the rest of my film simulation recipes you may have seen “COBALT” which I created on my X-T1. I liked the look I was getting out of “COBALT” and a lot of the reason for the look was the white balance setting. I decided to try to create something on my…

    “REFRACTED ROSE” – A stylized film simulation recipe.

    When I first created this “REFRACTED ROSE” recipe and shot with it I didn’t know how I felt about it. It originally didn’t come out how I expected and wanted. Almost 6 weeks later I gave it a second look and now have a new appreciation for it. Maybe it’s because it’s different from any…

    “STREET SPIRIT” – A Versatile B&W Look.

    “1979” – A Vintage Look. (Film Simulation for X-T1 and more)

    “1979” Recipe Settings Although I like my Gold Leaf recipe it’s a bit too extreme to use regularly. I created this “1979” recipe to be a look that you can walk around with shooting all kinds of situations with. I don’t create these recipes trying to mimic any specific film stock. Instead I try to…
