Fuji film simulation recipe for X-Trans IV cameras using Eterna Cinema
Eterna 8K
One of the fantastic skills of recent Fujifilm cameras, is to be able to shoot and record movies directly in the Eterna Cinema film simulation. This wonderfully soft simulation adds instant mood and sophistication to many shots.
It’s no suprise then that there are a number of excellent film recipes based on Eterna, including ones especially for night use, or that work well in the golden hour. Take a look at the YouTube videos by ‘Eteernuh’, such as Beach Day Eterna and Sunset F2 Eterna as examples.
These two in particular inspired me to experiment further with Eterna and come up with an adaptation that would bring softness and warmth to shots I took in morning and afternoon light. This recipe uses an 8000K colour temperature, and enhanced shadows to find a balance between softness and everyday usability.
