Milestone, a Classic Chrome for 10,000

A Classic Chrome film silmulation recipe with a 10,000K colour temperature base

It doesn’t seem long ago that I was feeling happy that 100 people had joined the Film Recipes Facebook Group and wondering if that was about as far as it would go. Well, we just passed through 10,000 members, and it’s still growing.

I started the group as a way to share the new film recipes that I added to this site, and as a place for film recipe fans to come together and ask questions and show their sample images. Bringing people together, the group is also the main place that people join in the Film Recipes challenge, that runs every couple of weeks. Details for this are in the panel below.

For this recipe, I thought it would be a fun challenge to see if I could make an everyday film recipe from the extreme 10,000K color temperature at the top of the scale in my camera. This is a very warm setting, and is almost tangerine orange without some taming, so it’s paired with heavy a correctional shift that brings it back to something more normal.

The result is a Classic Chrome with a warm toned mellow look, that is in part nostalgic and part film like. I think the look sits somewhere on the Kodak spectrum, sitting between Kodachrome and Kodak Portra. I’m really pleased with how it came out and happy to share it as a little celebration recipe as we pass the milestone of 10k members.
