Classic Chrome film simulation recipe for Fujifilm X-Trans IV cameras
Cinechrome
Cinematic tones can be many things, but for me it means a low saturation smoothness with a subtle retro tint. This recipe gives you cinemtatic tone with the classic chrome simulation, so it’s called Cinechrome.
As well as softness from reduced saturation and low contrast, this film recipe has a 5800 base temperature, with a subtle blue colour balance. This cools the image a little, giving an aged nostalgic feel to pictures without appearing too creamy. Grain is off for a clean, smooth look.
