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. Deep tone recipes, such as Squid Ink, are unlike any other, whereas at the softer end, Soft Cinnamon is a very usable day to day recipe.
Join the fun! The Film Recipes Facebook Group is a great place to chat film recipes, or share photos you’ve taken with the recipes. The Karmachroma challenge is on. Shoot with Karmachroma and share by Sun, Oct 2nd. Everyone is welcome to share photos from around the world. A selection will be added to the site. Let’s go!
More Eterna Bleach Bypass Film Recipes
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.
