Film recipes using the Eterna Bleach Bypass film simulation
Eterna Bleach Bypass is one of Fujifilm’s newer film simulation modes, available on most, but not all, X-Trans IV cameras. It is modelled after a particular film processing step, or that the skipping of a step, and has a muted, contrasty look that is unique.
For creating film recipes, the unique look leads to some interesting styles, and through adjustments in the recipe,to quite a wide range of looks. In fact, as a recipe creator, I feel that I get more variety in style from Bleach Bypass than any other simulation.
Top 3? Go for Soft Cinnamon, Hipsta Ray or the deep & unique Squid Ink
➡️ The Film Recipes Challenge is now on! Shoot with the recent look, Age of Aquarius, and share your photos, either in the Facebook group or the recipe page comments. The deadline is end of Feb 15th. Everyone is welcome, from all around the world! For inspiration, see previous galleries. ➡️ The Film Recipes Facebook Group is a great place to share film recipes, ask questions and join the challenge.

With this simulation being newer and with a somewhat unique base style, there are fewer film recipes out there on other sites. I’ve brought together a few of the more interesting ones here.
