Lately, I’ve been curious about the effect of changing just one variable of a previous Fujifilm recipe to see the new results. This recipe is a white balance modified version of my last film simulation, Classic Chrome V2. This recipe shifts things away from the greens and towards the reds and purples. Using my Fujifilm X-H2, I hit the streets of Vlore, Albania for my test photos.
Having the Citizen Fugu Promaster Automatic on my left wrist for the last 3 months has been a very enjoyable experience. It has been a great introduction to the world of automatic watches. The watch feel very high quality, it looks great, and it has shown impressive resistance to sustaining damage.
I just bought a Fujifilm X-H2 and I’ve been trying to create a film simulation that I can use as a “standard” profile. It needs to look good in all lighting conditions and be relatively flexible. Today’s recipe is my first attempt at such a recipe. Pro Negative 400 will give you unique colors suitable for every day memory making and reduce your need to edit in post.
I hope you enjoy this new Fujifilm Film Simulation recipe I’ve created called Kodak Gold Mist 200. It’s based on the Reala Ace Film Simulation, which some have criticized for a lack of originality, but I find perfectly suited as a foundation layer for film recipes.
The Fujifilm recipe I’ve created for you today is called Classic Gold Negative. It’s built on the Classic Negative film simulation. The recipe is free. I made it with the Fujifilm X-H2 and Sigma X-Mount lenses.
This is a new film simulation for Fujifilm cameras, specially for X-Trans III cameras. It's called the Rainy Grain Recipe. This recipe uses Fujifilm’s Classic Chrome Film Simulation and adds lots of contrast and a custom white balance to give it a well balanced and pleasing look, especially in natural light.
When Harman announced Phoenix 200 as one of the first new film stocks in years, people got very excited. The phoenix, a mythical bird reborn continuously from ashes, was a fitting name for the new film as it is a symbol of the rebirth from ruin. The film photography industry was lying in ruins up until a few years ago when it experienced rebirth of its own.
It’s hard to beat a classic, but everyone appreciates a good remix… That was my thought process when I set out to modify Fujifilm’s Classic Chrome profile on my Fujifilm X-H2. Like most people, I enjoy the original Classic Chrome, but variety is the spice of life. As 2024 drew to a close, I set out to make a film simulation that would give me new enthusiasm for photographing with this old favorite.
