Questions & Answers

Hi, I have already joined the club, but I wanted to ask you something. modern lenses are quite sharp, I understand by this that the detail value in the simulations has a value of -7 in most cases. I particularly use vintage m42 and c/y lenses, that's why I feel that the deterioration of the detail i

Hi I am new bee for Sony camera. I bought your Sony picture profiles. Could you please advise how these profiles are applied onto the plan. Thanks in advance Visakh

Does anyone knoe what the closest way to achieve an in-camera grain look? perhaps having max. iso but lowering aperture and exposure? i know that subtle noise can kinda mimic the look. i use a sony rx100v

Leicachrome 64 is my favorite simulation. Thinking I would get a preset for it I purchased the lightroom presets along the film simulations through PP, but it's not in there. Will you make one, and will I be able to get it without repurchasing the whole lighroom presets package? Thx

I tried the 3 picture profiles yesterday and didn't get the results I was expecting. It was ten minutes of partly cloudy while I shot these sunflowers. I'm sure that had something to do with it. For my nature and landscape daytime / sunrise / sunset photography, I shoot with the Sony vivid cre

Hi there, I was just hacking some of the PP into my camera and noticed, that Color Temperature and Color Filter settings are missing on some of the PP. Cinestill X and a lot of others. What does this mean? Color temperature and color filter settings have to be set to what values in case the setti

Do you have a video that discusses adjusting color temperature with the picture profiles for shooting in different lighting situations such as shooting at night under tungsten or fluorescent with profiles that are created for daylight shooting. I see that many profiles have several different color t

Hello! I am wondering what Sony picture profile to use for these different simulations? For example, I want to use Classic Chrome. Do I choose PP1, PP2, etc? Maybe it says somewhere on the website but I can't find it. Thank you!

Hi there! Finally someone has taken the time to make some nice film simulations for our Sony cameras! 😀 Easy to understand how to put them to use, but i have a suggestion for making it even easier! (Most)Regular film is balanced in daylight WB(unless tungsten labeled). If daylight setting would

Hello! When one purchases the access to the film simulations is that a one-time purchase or a monthly subscription? Thanks!

Hey! First off, I want to commend the creator of these film sims. They've really opened up a realm of possibilities with the Sony. We all know Sony cams have a lot of potential, but the time to get up to a working image is the price to pay. I'm testing the digital sims out and a review is in the wo

First off, thank you for making these simulations. I have been enjoying trying the different types and they've helped me learn more about my camera in the process. I have been using them mostly for photography but I also want to include them in my workflow for short films. What would you say are the

Hi, Firstly would like to thank the creator of these recipes, really interesting to see what sony cameras can achieve in this way. I am quite new to film/colorgrading and I am used to shooting in S-log3, overexpose and then correct the grade. However, what would be the best way to get the most out

I took this picture of a fountain with Daylight WB, 5.6 Aperture, ISO 400, AND standard as my creative filter. I LOVE the blues In the water and was wondering how close this is to Kodachrome? I'd love to have this as a picture profile. Can anyone help?

Hello, I was wondering if the film recipes are compatible with Sony A6300... I was looking for a way to simulate traditional black and whithe film but I would like to experiment with color as well, but only for stills. Please let me know. Regards, Paulo Correia Lisbon-Portugal

Not sure if I am using this correctly. Imported the preset into Lightrom. Viewed a Sony A7RV photo, the selected a "classic chrome" preset. Seems to use Adobe color as base profile and adjusts. Images my Fuji XT with classic chrome simulation produces are slightly desaturated colors but still rich

Hi Veres, Is it ideal to use one ISO for each simulation? For instance, should we shoot at 64 for Kodachrome 64, 400 for Portra. Or does it matter? If it does matter what ISO setting should we use when they are not an available when the Gamma is set to a particular setting?

Hey guys im new to the whole sony film simulations and wanted to try out the portra 400 on my 6300. i noticed that the gamma HLG and the color mode BT.2020 arent available on the a6300. What alternative settings should i use ?

Hi there, I recently joined as a member and I'm really loving the looking of the film simulations. I own an X100F and wanted to get more flavor SOOC from my sony. However, recently I've read on reddit and other websites that picture profiles are/should be used for video only. Should these film sim

Hey Veres, thanks for making this forum. Seeing your answers and passion behind this is nothing short of inspiring. So I am color blind, but I still love the look/vibes of film. Its gotten way to expensive to develop film for my camera and I have a rx100 m3 which does not support PP :( That being s

My muscle memory is so out of shape for film theory . . . I assume Cinestill 800T Recipe is meant to be used at night under Tungsten light. I've set the custom color temp and it sure is blue. I love your images you shot with this recipe and can't wait to use it in the city at night. Have you shot

Hey, thanks a lot for the sony film recipes. I am currently trying them out. I wonder if there is a simple way to download all the settings together with example images as one PDF? Thanks for your great work!

I have a a6400. The tempearture and color filter settings are stored under the white balance settings. How do people here do these changes in the field? My thought is to have a cheat sheet in the camera bag, something like this: PP1: Classic Chrome - Temp 4400 - Color Filter A7 M0.25 PP2: Kodak P

Hello, Deni! I loaded the Portra 160 recipe and tried to adjust the ISO to 160 on my a7III and it says I can't because it's not available for the Cine4 Gamma. Is this specific to my camera or does that gamma setting always require a minimum of 200?

Hello! I've tried shooting with Porta 400 tonight, 06/21/23 at around 8pm. Take a look at these two shots. The first one of the male was shot at 4000k, A 5.5 - G 0.5. It looked super blue and figured it was because of the time of day, so, for the second shot, I changed the color temp to 6800 but did

Hi, first, i'm from Germany, so sorry for my english ;-) and then thanks a lot for the picture profiles. Great work! And now my question about the picture profiles and the specified color temperatur. Is this a must to work with the picture profile? Because I don't understand exactly when you should

Hi there, Superdope stuff your work! Thanks a gazilllion for your efforts and sharing! I have a question: What exactly does «in progress» mean in case of the Kodak Tri-X 400? Of course I understand the expression «in progress» in general ;-)… When will it be finished or what exactly is missing to

Hi, I usually shoot in situations where I do not have time/opportunity to set the WB so I need to keep it at auto. I understand it would be better ideally to set a manual WB. But would it work at all to use auto WB with the recipe/PP settings you have on your website? Kind regards, Jonas

I just joined your subscription. I'm slightly color blind with the reds and greens. The red looks brown to me. The light green sometimes look yellow and the dark greens look grayish black. So I was going to purchase a fujifilm camera to help with my color deficiency and sell my sony. But I saw your
