Perfect for all your street and portrait photography needs, especially those with stunning high contrast scenes. IvanYolo Mood: Warm Cinematic, Vivid, Film-Look It has been awhile and I am excited to share with you another version of my cinematic film recipes, MetroChrome Obscura and this time we are going to create a Fujifilm simulation recipe that mimics the iconic CineStill 400D film stock. With just a few adjustments to your Fujifilm camera settings, you will be able to unlock the magic of this MetroChrome Obscura film recipe and achieve the same warm tones, fine-grain structure, and cinematic aesthetic that is unique to CineStill 400D. Let's get started and create a stunning Fujifilm recipe that pays homage to this film stock.After the incredible success of creating the Vision Obscura recipe, I found myself inspired to go for round two and create a new masterpiece. This time, I am excited to present to you my mimic of the beloved warm and high-contrast CineStill 400D film stock, optimized for use on any Fujifilm X-Series camera with the Classic Chrome film simulation.

About The MetroChrome Obscura Recipe

Created using Classic Chrome film simulation for all Fujifilm X Series cameras, MetroChrome Obscura is a fantastic option for street photographers wanting great warm tone results both during the day and at night. With its tested ability to capture stunning images in various lighting conditions, this warm cinematic film simulation recipe is a must-try for any photography enthusiast who is looking for a Classic Chrome based film recipe. MetroChrome Obscura is an excellent choice for low-light conditions. With the addition of a diffusion filter, you can further improve your photography and achieve a more cinematic look. Its fine-grain structure with the film grain settings set to minimal and warm tones make it ideal for capturing captivating portraits with a nostalgic feel. Trust MetroChrome Obscura to deliver exceptional results every time. It took me several attempts to perfect the white balance shift and Kelvin temperature adjustments for the MetroChrome Obscura but I ended up setting the White Balance to Daylight. My goal was to achieve a balanced tonality while preserving the unique warm tones during rapid lighting changes throughout a scene. If you're using an older Fujifilm X-Trans sensor camera and want to try out the MetroChrome Obscura, don't stress over the settings. The most important thing is to adjust the white balance shift. Don't fuss over any custom settings if they're not readily available on your camera. For portrait photographers that uses film simulation recipes, MetroChrome Obscura can be a great alternative to the popular Downtown Bloom or High Fashion recipe. With its subtle yet distinct tones, MetroChrome Obscura adds an extra layer of depth to your photographs, making them stand out in any setting. So if you're looking for a fresh take on a warm film recipe, give MetroChrome Obscura a try and see the difference for yourself.

MetroChrome Obscura For Vivid Cinematic Tone

Thank you so much for your continued support and interest in my Fujifilm recipes! As a result of high demand from my photographer friends and readers who have already tried my recipes, I have created MetroChrome Obscura specifically for Fujifilm users who are seeking a new warm-look film recipe with Classic Chrome. I truly appreciate all of your encouragement and I am grateful to have such an amazing community of photographers to share my passion with.This film simulation recipe is intended to be used on older Fujifilm camera models X-Trans III and X-Trans IV, as well as new sensors X-T5, X-H2, and X-H2S, the X100VI, and perhaps the latest Fujifilm X-T50.This CineStill 400D film recipe is one of the Obscura recipes & Classic Chrome recipes that came to my mind all of a sudden and using Classic Chrome is also another option to eliminate some bluish tone when shooting at night. Trust me, there were some unwanted tones when I tested Classic Negative, although I originally wanted to use that for this recipe. So, it's always wise to experiment when creating film recipes to find the one that truly works.

Chroma X Recipe - Classic Chrome Street & Portrait Edition

Fujifilm recipe for striking images on all cameras with Classic Chrome film simulation. Great for street and portraits with high contrast. IvanYolo Introducing the latest and most challenging recipe yet - Chroma X! This Fujifilm film simulation recipe is guaranteed to test your skills as a photographer, as it requires specific lighting conditions to achieve a stunning look. While it may not be for everyone, if you're up for the challenge, give Chroma X a try!Chroma X is a custom setting created for streets and only works on high-contrast locations. To achieve this look, it is best to shoot slightly underexposed images for the light and shadow under bright sunlight while taking into consideration the areas you're shooting, such as places with buildings and dark shadows. This truly is one of the most challenging recipes out there.

About The Chroma X Recipe

After endless hours of tinkering with the settings and experimenting, the Chroma X recipe was inspired by the esteemed Downtown Bloom film simulation, known for its ability to capture stunning street photography shots. Classic Chrome recipe users have yet another reason to celebrate - the breakthrough Chroma X recipe can be used on older Fujifilm camera models and is based on the Classic Chrome film simulation.After conducting extensive testing, I have come to the conclusion that the Chroma X performs optimally without the use of any filters. This allows for the production of photos that boast vivid colors and high contrast. Upon reviewing the sample photos, it is clear that the tonal balance differs between each shot. This can be attributed to various factors such as the use of different lenses including the SIRUI Sniper lens and the Fujinon XF35mm f2 lens, as well as the varying times and locations at which each photo was taken, with and without the use of diffusion filters.The white balance shift is so subtle that it's almost imperceptible. However, this shift has been intentionally made and has slightly shifted to a colder tone, which maintains the aesthetic of Classic Chrome while also achieving some different tonal range.

Chroma X Recipe Challenge - Ready?

I hope you guys thoroughly enjoyed shooting with the Chroma X recipe and are now ready to take on this exciting challenge. As you put your photography skills to the test, I challenge you to push your limits and strive for excellence. So, are you ready to step up to the plate? ^^. Be it portraits or street photography, I would love to feature your photos in this Chroma X sample photos section, you can DM me on my Instagram @equilibrium.tt to get featured. All photos are shot with the Fujifilm X-T4.

Fujicolor Pro 400H Film Recipe For Fujifilm X-Trans IV Cameras

Japanese Color Tone for Fujifilm X-Trans IV Cameras

Mood: Japanese, Vintage, Blueish Cool Honestly, the Fujicolor Pro 400H film recipe is one of the most complex Fujifilm recipes I have ever created. This was made based on the actual sample photos of discontinued 35mm Fujicolor Pro 400H film stock. I was happy to have the Fujicolor Pro 400H as the latest addition to my Fujifilm recipes which has the characteristic Japanese film-look colour tone. This Japanese film-like recipe is not created just by referring to Google image search but from the actual 120mm film photos like the images below. I like the blueish tone of this film and so I've decided to create based on this colour palette.

Hasselblad 500 C/M // Fujicolor Pro 400H - Photo credit - Lisa Marie Kaspar

Pentacon Six TL // Fujicolor Pro 400H - Photo credit - antmark

Rolleiflex 3.5E // Fujicolor Pro 400H - Photo credit - kalloflexia

What Is Fujicolor Pro 400H Film Recipe All About?

This is one of the hardest and most complex ways during the creation of this film recipe. This film-like recipe is based on the Classic Negative and required certain lighting conditions to achieve the look. There are no right or wrong when creating a film recipe, because of the constant changing of lighting conditions, expired films, lens quality or different camera settings, the tone will certainly be changed as well too. If you are into film photography you will certainly know what I mean. Whenever you're shooting with this Fujicolor Pro 400H film recipe make sure you have your compensation exposure set and expose your shot properly because this film recipe required you to overexpose one stop or more. I'm sure you don't want to ruin your holiday photos just like that or forget to set to shoot JPEG+RAW (this happened to me for few times) but ended up shooting on SOOC JPEGs but in the end, you don't like the results. But still, I do like SOOC JPEG, not much editing is needed.The Shadow setting of this Fujicolor Pro 400H is set to +2, so you need to shoot overexpose to compensate according to your liking and to brighten your photo to get the tone to shine. If you like more contrast and deep blueish green, then you can shoot slightly overexposed. The Clarity is set to -2 to create a little dreamy look but it is better if you use the FX filters to create the dreamy effects if you don't want to have slowness with the Clarity setting.If you like Japanese film-look recipes, you can also check out the Fujifilm Superia X-TRA 400 or Natura Classic. Happy shooting with Fujicolor Pro 400H, hope you like this new film recipe.

Fujicolor Pro 400H Custom Settings

Film Simulation Classic Negative Highlight -1 Shadow +2 Color +3 Sharpness -1 Noise Reduction -4 Grain Effect / Grain Size Strong/Small Color Chrome Effect / FX Blue Strong / Strong White Balance 3500K, Red 0 & Blue -5 Exposure Compensation Up to +1 ISO Auto up to ISO 6400 Clarity -2 Dynamic Range Auto

Nordic Bliss - Scandinavian Themed Fujifilm Simulation Recipe

Nordic Style and Scandinavian Themed Recipe for Fujifilm X-Trans IV Cameras

Mood: Nordic, Gloomy, Cold, Warm, Bliss This minimalist/travel recipe which is called Nordic Bliss is created after some brainstorming and extensive fine-tuning of the custom settings. The name of this recipe is based on a Nordic / Scandinavian theme. I know it is impossible for me to shoot in European countries as I'm in a South-East Asia country, so all sample images are shot in a Scandevanian-themed location to suit the mood of this recipe, therefore this is still an experimental recipe.

What Is Nordic Bliss Recipe All About?

Nordic Bliss has no characteristics of a 35mm film look or mimics any film stocks but it's more theme based. It is suitable for travel, creative, minimalist interior shots and also for shooting landscapes. Feel free to try out the Nordic Bliss recipe if you're in cold countries. Created using the Classic Chrome film simulation, you might find something special about this recipe's characteristics, warm inside and cold outside, which is a cold tone when shooting outdoors and a warm tone when shooting indoors. Nordic Bliss is also great for Fuji shooters who are into minimalist photography give this recipe a try! There is no restriction to shoot Nordic style only but can be used to shoot anything. The Daylight white balance is set with a blend of White Balance Shifts to somewhere off the neutral tone. Film grain has been turned off for this recipe to maintain the image quality. If you noticed, there are two versions of Nordic Bliss, one for muted and another version that changes according to lighting conditions to warm or cold (hopefully it works lol). If you happened to test and shoot with the Nordic Bliss recipe, feel free to share or tagged your images with me on Facebook or Instagram. You will have the chance of having your photos get featured in this post. For this recipe, I might be using some images that have already been used for other recipes. If you are looking for more Fujifilm recipes for travel, you can check out the Nomadic Mood, This recipe is created for the Fujifilm X-Trans IV sensor cameras including the X100V, X-T4, X-T30II, X-E4, X-S10 and X-Pro3. Happy shooting.

Vision Obscura - Kodak Vision3 250D Fuji Recipe

Vision ObscurɅ Kodak Vision3 250D Fuji Recipe

Fujifilm X-Trans IV Motion Picture Film Recipe - Version I

Mood: Warm, Modern Classic, Urban, Cityscapes Obscura sounds like dark magic used by Doctor Strange or a mysterious movie title name but it is actually one of my latest Fujifilm film simulation recipes which are named 'Vision Obscura'. This recipe is inspired by the 35mm motion picture film, Kodak Vision3 250D and can be used for streets including travel, cityscapes and street photography. I'm sure you might find a lot of interesting and weird film simulation recipes here on this blog with different tones compared to other sites.The name Obscura used for this recipe came from the camera obscura, which is a type of camera that uses a hole in the wall to project an image onto a screen. This type of the camera was first invented in the 16th century and has been used for photography ever since. Camera obscura photos are often considered to be some of the best because they capture the true depth and perspective of an image.

What Is Vision Obscura Film Recipe All About?

Vision Obscura is inspired by the Kodak Vision3 250D / Eastman 5207 and uses the Classic Chrome film simulation to simulate the motion picture film stock. Honestly speaking, it is not possible to mimic a film stock with 100% accuracy. This film recipe is created and took hours of work to fine-tune based on the sample photos. This film recipe uses the custom Kelvin white balance to add some warm tone similar to the motion picture film stock and blends with a slight blue and green white balance shift.I get some feedback and requests from Fujifilm shooters who have tried out a few of the Fujifilm SOOC recipes but some might not have the latest film simulations such as the 'Classic Negative' or 'Eterna Bleach Bypass' on older Fujifilm X Series cameras. So, I've decided to create Classic Chrome film simulation recipes instead.

* The Best Way To Shoot With Vision Obscura

It is recommended to shoot during the daytime as if you are travelling, doing street photography in bright sunlight to get the tone out of this film recipe. This film recipe works for Fujifilm X-Trans 4 sensor cameras including the X-T4, X-T30II, X-T30, X-E4, X-S10, and X-Pro3 just to name a few. For older Fujifilm X-Trans III sensor cameras, you can still try and use this recipe to see what it looks like.It is optional to use a diffusion filter to add a more film-look effect and glows to the highlights, you can kickstart with a lower density diffusion filter and see how it will look. This recipe is ideal for shooting under harsh sunlight or shooting light & shadow to obtain a lively colour tone or colour "pop," based on test shots and feedback from one of my friends.

Final Thoughts

This will be the first version of Vision Obscura and there will be different versions of Obscura recipes released in the future. I guess you will love and enjoy shooting with Vision Obscura. Based on the name itself, you might find it more enjoyable when shooting by looking at the viewfinder. This film recipe is tested with different Fujifilm cameras, thanks to the contributions of a few Fujifilm shooters who are interested to try out the recipe beforehand.Hopefully, this Vision Obscura can be your one of your weekly recipes when you're out on the weekends for a nice stroll around the city while travelling or shooting street photography.I would like to thank Alvin Herp from Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam who has been contributing the photos and trying out this film recipe. Alvin has submitted a few Vision Obscura sample photos which were shot using the Fujifilm X-100V with Cinebloom 10% density diffusion filter.You can check out their featured sample photos along with individual Instagram links to view more of their photography work below.

Vision Obscura Custom Settings

Boudoir Chrome - Fujifilm X-Trans 4 SOOC Boudoir Recipe

Boudoir Chrome

Fujifilm X-Trans IV SOOC Boudoir Recipe

Mood: Dreamy, High Contrast, Moody, Dramatic If you own a Fujifilm mirrorless camera and enjoy boudoir photography and want to shoot SOOC with little retouching, this film's custom settings may be for you. The Boudoir Chrome is an indoor boudoir portraits recipe which works well with indoor natural or artificial lighting such as studio lights. This special recipe works great if you would like to shoot and get instant results by playing around with the lighting to create the 'light and shadow' mood for the boudoir.Boudoir Chrome is created based on Classic Chrome and further adjustment has been made to the film simulation settings to match for creative boudoir portraits shoot. I'm not an expert in boudoir shoots but this recipe gets a first-hand compliment for giving the mood and sensual feel of a boudoir. Boudoir photography is a great way to boost the model's confidence and feel empowered.Plus, it's a lot of fun for both the photographer and model because there are many creative ways to explore boudoir photography. The recipe gives a high contrast chrome tone with a heavy shadow look because this type of photoshoot required good lighting to create the mood. Boudoir Chrome is created during my second sensual boudoir photoshoot with Yumiko which was shot under indoor natural light and the use of a studio strobe.Most of my images are shot straight out of the camera with the Fujifilm X-T4, Fujinon XF35mm F2 R WR, Viltrox 56mm F1.4 and didn't go through any editing software so I think this recipe is good for Fuji shooters who would like to shoot boudoir in SOOC too. A diffusion filter can be used along with this recipe to create a dreamy boudoir look and the grain setting has been turned off to retain a clean image.You can easily access the menu on the camera and store the film recipe in the custom settings menu. This recipe works for all newer Fujifilm X-Trans IV sensor cameras including the Fujifilm X-T4, X-E4, X-T30II, X-Pro3 & X-100V models.
