Deep toned monochrome Fujifilm film recipe with a brown colour shift
If you’ve every experiemented with the Hipstamatic app, you may have come across the characterful mono setting called Claunch72. It has a tinted mono look, with dark border and vignetting.
One of my favourite IG follows is Woody95 who makes excellent use of this setting in his Hipstamatic photography in Scotland.
Personally, I love the style and wanted to try and capture the essence of it in a film recipe. Using an X-Trans IV camera makes this possible with colour tone applied to a mono image.

My interpretation of this look includes a colour shift that is perhaps a little less green than the Hipstamatic original, and of course, is missing the border and vignetting. However, as I’ve used this film recipe more and more, I’ve come to really enjoy its toned mono style.

Thanks, will give it a try. The one with house frontage is really great and reminds me Polish postcards from 60s showing views of old parts of towns.

First two images are not from there but I thing they are nice anyway. I add a heavy grain to the cityscape one.
