I am blown away by the response to this video. I worked extremely hard on the presets, the shop, the fake film box I made in Blender (for no reason other than I wanted everything to be perfect) and, of course, making this video. I have an exam tomorrow and hustled like crazy the past week to finalize everything and also study for the exam, with 12h+ sitting at my desk every day. It makes me so incredibly happy that the effort seems to be paying off. Thank you everybody ❤ Also I just realized, after 3 days, that PayPal checkout hasn't been enabled the whole time since launch... Very unfortunate, but it was my stupid mistake 🤦♂ So, if you are seeing this and couldn't purchase the presets because you don't have a credit card, I am very sorry. But now, finally, PayPal checkout is enabled 😊
"You have now successfully taken made a photo taken with 4 grand worth of camera gear look like it was taken on a $15 disposable camera..." God, I love editing photos.
This is my first time seeing your videos and it was amazing. I love the fun intro, I love the good quality audio. I love all the b-roll and example shots. I love the story telling. I love that you flow admiration to other creators. I love that you created something you were excited to sell and then provided an additional exchange with your audience and showed editing tips. I also loved the way you showcased the editing screen and your a-roll together. This had everything you could want in a video. I am blown away!
I made a few home made diffusion filters using silver and black spray paint on the inside of cheap uv filters. It's a little more work than hairspray, but it is more permanent. You can use acetone to clean the filter if you make a mistake. The silver filter is on my X100V all of the time.
This is the first video of yours I've seen, and I subscribed after 2 minutes. You've made a masterpiece, it is better than most of the popular photography youtubers'. Thank you. I'll buy your presets, they are useful.
Thank you so much! It means a lot coming from you 🙏 I really enjoy your film emulation process and I'll definitely continue to play around with it in different situations. I'll have to try combining my presets with your more sophisticated grain process.
@FUTC Thank you so much for creating this tutorial! I've been trying to expand my horizons with the way I edit in LR and this video helped me gain a valuable understanding of the underlying properties of that groovy, nostalgic filmic look! Already tried applying these techniques to some raw shots and I am so stoked on how the edits look.
I got a Glimmerglass filter recently and I think it was worth the money. The softness and incredibly beautiful blooms it adds to my video have to be seen to be believed - instantly makes my footage stand out in an ocean of same-same digital sensor videos. I think the trick with this type of filter is that "less is more" - a subtle effect is best.
Hey man, realize you’re a new creator. Just want to say you’re killing it. This video is funny, informative, entertaining, and well put together. I’ve subscribed, keep up the great work!
I've been experimenting with an analogue look for digital images for a couple of years now. Tried all the same things you've mentioned in your video aswell: lens filters, color editing, presets, vintage lenses. But I think there is a certain limit to lightroom / capture one / or whatever when it comes to emulating these looks. Furthermore it gets difficult if you want to have consistent results. Film behaves very differently. The amount of light can already change the outcome of a certain film stock. Personally, I think the closest you can get to film is the Dehancer Photo Plug-In for Lightroom or Capture One. It was mainly created for filmmakers who wanted to enhance their color grading game, but they decided to also create a stills only version. Honestly, that plug-in is just superior to everything out there at the moment. DxO is good, but can't compete with it. RNI is not even close. And all "filmic" presets are not worth mentioning (no shade btw). I think you should try Dehancer out or even make a video about it. You could compare real film stocks with the digital emulation from Dehancer, even though that has been done before. But still, it's crazy how accurate you can get your digital photos. Also you have access to halation- , bloom- , compression- , overexposing-behaviour- and grain-tools (these tools react dynamically with the input source). Would love to see or hear what you think about it, since you are an experienced film shooter and know how these things are hard to recreate in lightroom alone since these parameters are too static in LR.
Thank you for your input, I appreciate you taking the time 🙏 That sounds super interesting and I’ll definitely look into it! I tried to do my best in Lightroom but native support for halations, bloom, etc. sounds amazing
Thank you, never heard of that plug-in. Sounds like it might be the ultimate thing! I even pondered at one point if I could make a plug-in for highlight bloom and halation and especially grain. There are no plug-in that does grain like film does. Maybe this is it.
@@SamBorgman Glad I can help. I myself have been looking for ages and it's just very convenient now. And the results speak for themselves. Dehancer is pretty expensive though. Maybe you should try out the free trial version first and see how you like it. Dehancer themselves also have a very specific guide on how to get the best results - worth looking into when trying the trial version. Worth mentioning: even though it's a heavy price for the plug-in, it's not a subscription. So you only pay once and than you are good to go for the rest of your digital editing life 😅
@@p_syv8053 Oh thank god! I can’t deal with subscriptions. I moved to Capture One because of greedy Adobe. No one should be using subscription based software.
100% Dehancer is the best thing on the market to emulate film right now. It’s not even close, honestly. And you’re right again, LR and other software simply do not have the tools to reliably and consistently match film, because film has a non-linear color reproduction which is very different to the way that LR processes RAW data. I’m definitely not an expert, but my understanding is that film responds to color and light with different “outputs” than you’d get with digital. Everything you do in LR has an equal but opposite reaction. You can try to mitigate it a bit, but the product usually ends up being a quite over processed looking photo which has something “off” about it. Sure, you can push the skin tones to be more yellow and less red as you might see in Portra 400 on a Frontier, but you end up losing the detail and gradient in the tonality and they end up looking like a pallor alien. Or you can push the yellows in one direction, but that also influences the greens, which are already being processed to try to make them look like “film greens,” but when you get the yellows looking right in the skin tones or the light on the side of a wall, now the greens look too processed. Film doesn’t have this problem because it’s exposed “as is,” and any changes made on top of that are made on a non-linear reproduction, so the ratios of colors and the way they interact (or more specifically the way they DON’T) isn’t changed nearly as much. I think LUTs are the best thing we have right now to replicating film, but even then, we’re a long way off because frankly, the resources don’t really exist outside of cottage industries trying to pull off this very niche feat. But I agree with you on Dehancer.
I really love your content about how to make digital photos look like film, I hope you can create more detailed content like this. I'm looking forward to it 😊

It's true that film generally retains much more of the highlights because of the log-like response vs the digital linear response, but it's a oversimplification to say digital retains more of the shadows, it greatly depends not just on the dynamic range of the digital sensor but also on what raw value the camera's manufacturer decided to be mid-gray. A high raw value for mid-gray will give a lot of shadow information and clips highlights sooner, where as a low raw value for mid-gray will give less shadow information but retains much more of the highlights. You can influence this by setting an exposure compensation in camera. Highlight compression is one of the defining features of film vs digital, so you can under-expose a few EV in camera and then in post boost the exposure and compress the highlights to emulate it, this is greatly dependent on your camera's capabilities though so mileage may vary.
Thank you very much for this. I've been trying to mimic the film look and watched many videos, but it was hard to replicate it as a beginner. Exactly as you demonstrated, I could easily get the most stunning film look image I've ever achieved. Thank you.
I loved this video so much! Just purchased your presets because I love what you are doing. The video quality, the message behind it, the editing. EVERYTHING. I enjoyed this video so much! I've made a bunch of my own "retro" presets, but I am so excited to try yours out. Thank you!!
This is also the first video that I see from your channel. Three points that I wanna make known: 1. You've earned another sub 2. I will support you by purchasing these presets. 3. You should have wayyyyyyy more subs. Great job.

I appreciate that more than you know! My goal is to pack as much value as I can into these videos. I get annoyed by some of the bigger channels just waffling about for 17 minutes without any intention or value. I promise I'll always do my best to bring value to the viewer!

As someone that also has a set of DIY diffusion filters, shoots Fuji, loves the Fuji 27mm, and used to shoot film almost 2 decades ago, you hit all the key points. Shadow, Mid, and Highlight color adjustments advice is spot on as well. Fuji also does better with highlights in my opinion and handles that over exposure for the film look nicely. Also, got a good chuckle out of the cheapest UV filter and hair spray bit because that is almost exactly what I've done with a bunch of filters. Though I've also tried fixative for working with chalk (glimmer glass vibes) and chalk board paint (pro mist vibes) with some success. And if you want a more film shooting experience and can swing the cost, an XPro2's OVF with the 27mm is just perfection. Just the right amount of room around the framelines to easily adjust your composition without things feeling tiny.
Thank you! I should definitely experiment with more DIY filters! As for the X-Pro 2, I reviewed the X-Pro 1 a couple of months ago and quite enjoyed it, but I was conflicted on the optical viewfinder as the offset made it hard in many situations to compose very accurately. But I would love to try another X-Pro camera in the future, especially in combination with the XF27mm
@@futc.photography The parallax at closer focusing distances takes a while to adjust to for sure - I just love rangefinder style cameras and the little boxes they look like. Going along with using vintages lenses for their less refined optics - cheap manual lenses from companies such as 7artisans, TTartisans, Pergear, etc. generally have the flaws that are associated with fast film lenses. Some favorites of mine are the TTartisan 17 1.4, Pergear 25 1.8, and 7artisan 35 1.2 Voigtlander as well but that's $$$
This video came up on my homepage, i never watched anything of yours before and said "what the heck" and clicked on it. I'm blown away by the content you just packed into the video. Subscribing and also buying your presets. Thank you!
I've never bought someone's LR presets before, but I was so impressed with the results in this video that I went and dropped that $5 on yours! Looking forward to using these
Dope video, I’m getting film for the first time tomorrow and I’m super exited because I get to use my grandpas old film camera (Minolta XE-1) for the first time ever
Just a note for Fuji shooters, you can not shoot RAW with film simulation. Simulation works with JPEG only. If you shoot RAW, you'd have to edit the image in post processing for the film like feel
At 8:20 you talk about the prominent colors present in Fujifilm and later on you talk about kodak. How do I find more information about other film reels and which colors they have in highlights shadows and midtones?
hey ! i know one of these photos are taken in Duisburg at the tiger and turtle, you also speak german accent. i wonder if you are near this town ? becouse i come from moers. i´m really into photos ! i own a a6300, gh5, canon 5d, 80d, 700d and a old voigtlander film camera. i start with a fujifilm 5mp and did not stop since then.
The voigtlander Nokton 23mm is a great start to get the film look! Film will always be film, digital will always be digital. Can get pretty close though!
Enjoyed your video and it was great timing because I am creating a video for my own channel, reviewing some presets and recipes for the Fujis. Thanks mate :)
Don't underestimate your work. I've found some good free film presets for Capture One (you may like it). But your recipe showed me how to do that by myself. While other presets use complex color grading with the curve tool, your way uses some tools I better understand. Every time I changed one of these curves, the whole thing ends in a complete mess. Now I can make some modifications by myself. That's great. Thank you very much. Hope your exam is going well. Ich drücke die Daumen.
Mach mal bitte mehr Content. Es kann nicht sein, dass ich jedes Video mehrfach anschauen muss! Die sind qualitativ einfach mega, muss man schon so sagen.

@@futc.photography jaa, das glaube ich dir! Ich schaue aber auch sehr gerne deine V-Log Formate, wo du einfach nur durch die Gegend läufst und Fotos machst. Gerne davon auch mehr. Grüße aus dem verschneiten Leverkusen
Just bought the presets! First presets I’ve ever bought, great price! It definitely looks better with photos that were taken on a lens with a diffusion/bloom filter and photos with interesting lighting. I’m happy with the purchase and look forward to using them more!
I think there is another way to get this Film vintage look we all like By using old vintage lenses on any Mirrorless camera I do use couple of old vintage lenses on my Sony A7 sometimes and the results are not bad at all Thank you for the video by the way Please keep doing nice content for us …
After watching this I bought both your and Oliver Keys presets. Although Oliver Keys are great, I feel like yours are miles ahead. Oliver Keys take a bit more tuning with each image as just applying the preset left me with an almost unusable image every time with me needing to adjust far more than just exposure. Yours will most likely be my go to preset to use on my everyday photos. I threw an old canon 50mm on my A7iii and very light hairspray on a uv filter method and the photos I'm getting are the closest to real film I've personally achieved. Its really inspired me to get out and take more photos especially with the warm tones on the F400K preset, thanks for presets
I shoot either the flat or monochrome presets on my Nikon Z FC with a 60 year old lens that has fungus on it. Jpeg popping straight off the camera looking like I spent 6 hours messing with a .NEF to get it to look like my old Minoltas. Get the oldest lens with a wide aperture you can and a mirrorless with an APS-C sensor. People will complain about crop factor, but it turns my lens into a f/0.74 low light portrait TITAN
New subscriber here. I bought you preset just because I wanted to support. I wish you all the best and I will keep an eye out for more videos. I’m a Fujifilm shooter and look forward to more content!
i accidentally made a bloom filter a couple years ago. i had atmosphere aerosol i was using next to some spray paint. i grabbed the spray paint accidentally and sprayed for a couple of seconds before i realized what i did. it got on my uv filter and pretty much gave me extra bloom, i still use it sometimes.
Are fuji recipes and film look only work for taking photos on Fuji cameras? or they work while taking videos also? I mean videos with fuji cameras also would give real film look with organic grains?

I've been enjoying these presets a lot. Thanks for making them, and sharing them with us. I look forward to your future work.
Thank you! That means a lot! 🥰
Dope video, I’m getting film for the first time tomorrow and I’m super exited because I get to use my grandpas old film camera (Minolta XE-1) for the first time ever
Blessed be the RUclips Algorithmus für dieses Video inklusive peak film photography humor auf meiner fyp, wirklich gut gemacht und sehr hilfreich
Danke!!!
“At a distance of about two bananas”, 😆 love it.
Thank you for this!!!! Bought the presets and wishing you all the best.
Just a note for Fuji shooters, you can not shoot RAW with film simulation. Simulation works with JPEG only. If you shoot RAW, you'd have to edit the image in post processing for the film like feel
FINALLY! Someone that uses the universal distance measurement of the banana
At 8:20 you talk about the prominent colors present in Fujifilm and later on you talk about kodak. How do I find more information about other film reels and which colors they have in highlights shadows and midtones?
I would have never thought that I end up watching a video about dreamy photos and end up seeing photos of Aachen.
Haha, I’m full of surprises 😉
Viele Grüße aus Köln-Ehrenfeld! Starkes Video :)
hey ! i know one of these photos are taken in Duisburg at the tiger and turtle, you also speak german accent. i wonder if you are near this town ? becouse i come from moers. i´m really into photos ! i own a a6300, gh5, canon 5d, 80d, 700d and a old voigtlander film camera. i start with a fujifilm 5mp and did not stop since then.
nice positive vibe throughout the video. Thanks for the tips!
The voigtlander Nokton 23mm is a great start to get the film look! Film will always be film, digital will always be digital. Can get pretty close though!
Enjoyed your video and it was great timing because I am creating a video for my own channel, reviewing some presets and recipes for the Fujis. Thanks mate :)
OMG man I didnt photograph for a while but today I tried what you said and went outside and it was the most I had with photography for a long time.
Don't underestimate your work. I've found some good free film presets for Capture One (you may like it). But your recipe showed me how to do that by myself. While other presets use complex color grading with the curve tool, your way uses some tools I better understand. Every time I changed one of these curves, the whole thing ends in a complete mess. Now I can make some modifications by myself. That's great.
Thank you very much. Hope your exam is going well. Ich drücke die Daumen.
Subscribed for the unique humour alone. Love it.
amazing, when you think about, not many want the exact, but want the experience
your colours are amazing wow! some of the best I've seen
I recognized almost instantly this place, … Aachen. Been living here for years 😅
Also the jupiter 8 do soft, warm imaging. I like do portrait photos with it on my e-pm1.
"at a distance of about two bananas" just made my entire night 🍌😂
First time watching your video. Definitely buying the presets. Amazing video. Keep it up!
Just love your enthusiasm!
Thank you!
Mach mal bitte mehr Content. Es kann nicht sein, dass ich jedes Video mehrfach anschauen muss! Die sind qualitativ einfach mega, muss man schon so sagen.
Ja wegen der Qualität dauert das zum Teil echt lange haha. Ich versuche auf jeden Fall irgendwie alles ein bisschen zu optimieren dass ich noch regelmäßiger videos rausbekomme in 2024. Aber vielen Dank dass du meine Videos rewatched das ist echt das größte Kompliment 🥰🙏
@@futc.photography jaa, das glaube ich dir! Ich schaue aber auch sehr gerne deine V-Log Formate, wo du einfach nur durch die Gegend läufst und Fotos machst. Gerne davon auch mehr. Grüße aus dem verschneiten Leverkusen
@@timb8744 Mit dem ganzen Schnee hab ich ganz viele fotos gemacht, da kommt wohl doch sehr bald ein neues video haha 😄
Love the video ❤❤❤
Keep doing it man, u’re doing it!
I appreciate the kind words! Thank you! 😊
Just bought the presets! First presets I’ve ever bought, great price! It definitely looks better with photos that were taken on a lens with a diffusion/bloom filter and photos with interesting lighting. I’m happy with the purchase and look forward to using them more!
Glad you like them! Thanks for your support!
I think there is another way to get this Film vintage look we all like
By using old vintage lenses on any Mirrorless camera
I do use couple of old vintage lenses on my Sony A7 sometimes and the results are not bad at all
Thank you for the video by the way
Please keep doing nice content for us …
Agreed. The Helios 44-2 is still my go to lens. The price is so cheap but my favourite photos all came from the Helios.
After watching this I bought both your and Oliver Keys presets. Although Oliver Keys are great, I feel like yours are miles ahead. Oliver Keys take a bit more tuning with each image as just applying the preset left me with an almost unusable image every time with me needing to adjust far more than just exposure. Yours will most likely be my go to preset to use on my everyday photos. I threw an old canon 50mm on my A7iii and very light hairspray on a uv filter method and the photos I'm getting are the closest to real film I've personally achieved. Its really inspired me to get out and take more photos especially with the warm tones on the F400K preset, thanks for presets
distance of two bananas had me laughing for 5 minutes straight hahahaha
"Well I paid for the whole grain slider so of course I'm gonna use the whole thing" - I'm dead.
Actually laughed out loud when you looked away from the camera and said, "We need to over expose, babyyyy."
Really nice presets, one of the best film simulations I've seen! Keep up the great work.
Thanks, will do!
“Two bananas.” Cracked me up. 😂
The DIY bloom was amazing haha. I had just bough one too 😥 Great vid man
I shoot either the flat or monochrome presets on my Nikon Z FC with a 60 year old lens that has fungus on it. Jpeg popping straight off the camera looking like I spent 6 hours messing with a .NEF to get it to look like my old Minoltas. Get the oldest lens with a wide aperture you can and a mirrorless with an APS-C sensor. People will complain about crop factor, but it turns my lens into a f/0.74 low light portrait TITAN
That hairspray trick was awesome!
Omg hairspray!!!! Love it, and wish I knew before grabbing diffusion filters 😭 Anywho, great video and thanks for sharing all your tips👌
Thank you so much for this video man. Very entertaining and so incredibly useful and informative!
You (re)invented digital photography! 😁
Man what a great video! Such a cool dude, loved the tribute to Oliver Keys' work❤️
I am excited to try these Presets with my Ricoh GRIII.
I can feel your passion for photography oozing from this video. Subbed!
Wow haha that makes me very glad, I am super passionate about this stuff so it's really great that you noticed it :) Thank you for subbing!
Okay that hairspray hack 👁👁 I'm trying that asap
Love the giant D20 in the back
New subscriber here. I bought you preset just because I wanted to support. I wish you all the best and I will keep an eye out for more videos. I’m a Fujifilm shooter and look forward to more content!
wish you created a Capture 1 version of preset! it looks so amazing
i accidentally made a bloom filter a couple years ago. i had atmosphere aerosol i was using next to some spray paint. i grabbed the spray paint accidentally and sprayed for a couple of seconds before i realized what i did. it got on my uv filter and pretty much gave me extra bloom, i still use it sometimes.
Fujifilm xe1 with a vintage manual lens and a pro mist filter. Pro mist keeps the sharpness and contrast. Done!
just purchased, especially for the useful tips at the end- shows great creator integrity!!
I appreciate that so much!
Congrats for this video ! Now I just want to go outside and shoot, thank you for the inspiration 🤝
Just bought the presets and they look great, thank you.
Nice video. Got a cheap filter for 11€ and bought the presets right away.
But honetly, nothing can beat film.
Are fuji recipes and film look only work for taking photos on Fuji cameras? or they work while taking videos also? I mean videos with fuji cameras also would give real film look with organic grains?
This video is magic my guy 😭
Bought your presets to be used with my A7iii. Thank you for the DIY tip on the bloom filter. 👍
Awesome work mate and I enjoy the humour 😂
I appreciate it 🙏😊
your sick preset is sick and better than any one i have seen
Thank you!
