    Hi Ritchie!

    Is there a way to use these film simulations for video as well?

    We could edit the default simulations and adjust them to what we want, I guess?
    I own an X-S10 and don’t think I can create custom movie simulations as I can with stills.

    Thanks!

      Yes! However, not all of the settings are available in video mode, such as Grain, Clarity, and the Color Chrome Effects. They won’t look the same as the stills, but it can still look good and save you time color grading.

      For example, this video was captured on an X-T4 using the X-Trans III CineStill 800T recipe:

      And this was also with the X-T4 but using the Kodak Portra 160 recipe:

    Re your article on Moment (https://www.shopmoment.com/reviews/why-shooting-jpegs-is-so-popular-10-fujifilm-simulation-recipes): as AI becomes more prevalent, the “Photoshop is terrible” sentiment will only get stronger.

    Hey! I love all the sims y’all have made over the years. I was wondering if you’d have an interest in making one for Kodak Pro Image 100. Ive been shooting a lot of it lately, and would love a digital version to put in my x100V for when I don’t feel like film.

    Hi!

    I love your recipes and I’ve been trying them for some months now when I came across an issue on my XT20.

    As I try to assign the WB shift on different custom settings for each recipe, I cannot. If I have custom setting 2 (C2) with Auto WB r:2 b:-5 that will be my shift for auto WB in every recipe 🙁

    Is that a limit on the XT20 I have to deal with or is there a workaround I don’t know??

    Hi! Do you have any general tips for converting IV recipes to V to get an approximate or ‘close enough’ result?
