The recipes have been instrumental in keeping that film feeling alive for me. I stopped shooting film because I couldn’t afford it long term but keeping everything manual on my x100f and using these recipes gives me that ‘wow’ feeling when I finally open up my files. Would love to see you and Molly play around with them in another video!
The price of film is getting pretty absurd.. I’ve decided to cut waaay back on my film shooting, not really for that reason, but I can’t lie, I’m excited about the savings. Glad you’ve got something that works for you! That’s all that matters ❤️👊🏻
@@mattdayphoto are you going to talk about why you decided to cut way back? I think this is a topic that a lot of have been thinking about. I assumed it was mostly due to cost.
Thank you Matt! Very inspiring. I loved to crossprocess film back in the days so I was happy finding a recipe on Fuji X Weekly that i used on my x100 mk1. Works very well
I’ve only shot JPEG once I picked up the X100v. I love the Portra 400 & HP5 pushed look. Honestly it’s saved me so much money from switching over from film and I may not go back anytime soon
I know Matt probably won't see this comment but one of the things I like about Capture One (not sure if Lightroom does this) is that when you choose "auto" as your profile with a raw photo, you get the same look at it appeared on your camera, as the starting point. Meaning that you still have the look of the recipe with the flexibility of a raw image, as the starting point.
CHALLENGE ACCEPTED In all seriousness, I didn’t know this! I’ll try it on Lightroom first but I’ll check that out on Capture One! Thank you for the tip!
On Lightroom you can also do that. When you import the file just not apply anything and leave as shoot and you will get the same look. In fact that is my workflow
@@mattdayphoto For me it works when i change this setting in Lightroom under Preferences -> Presets -> Global Settings from Adobe Default to Camera Settings. Of course I only have one camera so in your case you would probably use the setting below Global Settings and just adjust this for your x100v. Still this does not apply every setting from the camera like shadow and highlight adjustments but at least the white balance (+shift) and the film simulation chosen in camera are applied.
I go through phases with my X100F of shooting Raw and shooting JPEG. Currently in a Raw phase because the Raws from this camera are just soooo good and edit soooo well; but I am eager to dive back into the JPEG recipes and simplify my process with the X100F once again. Ideally, I want to keep my X100f in JPEG for just my EDC camera, then keep my EOS R in Raw for work related shots.
Welcome to the JPG club ! I went into fuji system a year ago after discovering this. With less time to edit and losing interest in editing, i thought it was the perfect thing, and a year later I never use LR anymore. Started with some recipes, and slowly kept some, deleted others, or even made myself my own ones using X RAW studio. In camera settings is the future. Excited for what fuji will make in camera with their next system.
I shoot almost exclusively jpeg, and have for years, as for the day job I spend 8 hours a day in front of a computer, and I don’t want to spend my downtime doing the same. Yes, there are trade offs, but as Matt said, sometimes "good enough" is just that, good enough. Having discovered Fujifilm's jpeg engine, I've found my happy place 😀👍
I shoot Jpeg and raw these days, just to have a back up if I really need to adjust an image, but rarely do. Shooting jpeg has improved my photography as I’m more aware of getting it right in camera
today i changed my x100v bw setting to hp5. the old setting is the portra 400 recipe with monochrome film simulation. the only noticeable difference i saw was increasing the shadows from -2 to +1. color chrome on/off didnt seem to have any effect in monochrome. also i like strong small grain over strong large grain. large grain looks odd to me when zooming in. cool that you're enjoying your x100v. it's the first camera i've purchased for myself as an adult, i think. i feel validated that you like yours :) great vids. some of those shots you have of your dad while you guys are working look awesome. i especially like one of the portraits in the truck you shared.
Second. This is great, Matt! Been shooting jpeg for a while now for personal stuff. I LOVE it. I’ve got some wicked good recipes I’ve built myself I should send your way.
There is a half way house if you shot raw only, where you don’t need to edit in post on a pc. You can select files on the camera and convert using the recipe.
Great video! I've had my X100V since Dec. 2021 and I absolutely love it! I use recipes from a few different people, but mostly I stick with one for color shots and one for black & white. I do still shoot raw+jpg. Don't like to give up the raw files. lol
Have two Xpro 3's. Sold off a load of unused gear to obtain the second one. For fun have entered the X-weekly recipes for mono selection on one and colour on the other. 14 film sims to play with on two cameras! And can readjust if necessary using Raw - how flexible is that compared to the old days when I started in the 60's. who would have believed it.
Nice! I know I’ve mentioned the HP5 recipe in previous comments myself. It’s my GoTo black and white setting on my V. I love the images Matt, keep the content coming.
As I use Canon cameras, I use Film emulation software and still use raw for my images. I gives me the looks I like and I don’t have to use JPEG as I enjoy the whole process including editing.
@@mattdayphoto The recipes are based on which Sensor your camera has, but they are all pretty close you can “fudge” a setting or 3 and make it work. I just wish Fuji had given us actual savable film type memories instead of “C1-C7”. Like you have to memorize what C value goes with whatever you program in, or carry some cheat sheet in your wallet or phone. The app supports a great website and its like $19.95 a year. For the price of a pizza you have some cool settings.
Would love to see you and Molly talking about this. Just to hear both opinion. And if I'm not remembering wrong Molly should be the one with the longest experience with the V? And maybe she has a totally different experience with the recipes. Always nice to hear different perspectives either way. Hope you can make it happen. All the best. /Robert
It’s the perfect photo escape for me. Shooting sports and the same sport 82+ times a year makes RAW files, photo mechanic, culling, the uploading etc really monotonous despite loving the work. With the film recipes it’s such a drastically different experience that not touching it in post makes it an experience I enjoy both more because of it. Love this and glad you touched on it.
I can imagine with shooting sports! To be honest, I never thought about it for professional uses in scenarios like that. This would have been convenient for a LOT of event coverage I did back in the day. 😅
@@mattdayphoto ah sorry! that was confusing. I’m still using like pro model mirrorless sony’s for sports, but use x100v with essentially the same subjects you do. wife & daughter, Lake Erie, ne Ohio etc. I will say though that pulling this out with a film simulation for like bts type photos makes some really personable stuff of athletes I work with. breaks that fourth wall a little more if you will.
@@jimmylongo8660 oooohh! Gotcha! That makes total sense! I have seen friends that are cinematographers and DPs that have a Fuji or Q2 or something like that on them throughout the day to shoot quick BTS that they can turn around for content, send to clients, etc. Pretty smart!
I don't shoot with recipes but I did set my fuji to a B&W setting and and I shoot RAW. I get better exposures that way and contrast in my images. I then post process in camera to the look I like latter. Many ways to shoot with a camera I guess.
Since switching to a monochrome EVF, I’ve found it’s much easier for me to dial in my exposure just by eye and I don’t even have to think about it. It’s nice!
I have always been very lazy when it comes to post. Shoot jpeg 95% of the time. Forces me to slow down when I am taking photos knowing I am limited to how much post work I can do.
I’ve felt this too! When I know I can’t get real lazy (already lazy enough with this camera) I do try to be a bit more precise in exposure. Good habit!
I shoot weddings and other things and I've given clients next day photos because I shoot raw+jpeg never had a client being upset about getting a jpeg from my camera. I do edit my wedding photos but those take longer for the client to get. Olympus has good jpegs and the new OM camera can shoot a few different jpegs. Also Fuji can do this also. I do own the Fuji X-E1 but if you shoot three different jpegs it won't shoot raw also. So anyone looking look at the new Fuji and OM cameras if they can shoot a few different jpegs and raws. I think that's the best thing for some people that like jpegs out of the camera but also want the raw files.
I only shoot jpegs on my fujifilm xe4 and tweak them in light room I'm fairly new to digital photography so this is a really convenient way to shoot for me
no point of using the x100v if it's not for the intentional limitation one puts on himself to think and try to get the setup done before he clicks that shutter. That's how film worked and this puts one closer to that experience. I carry sony m4 for work that I have to make sure it can be post processed to what I like. But I reserve that now for "boring" work.
Thank you! And no, I don’t work with Marshall Carpet One & Rug Gallery, I’m just down the road in Chillicothe. I’m just a fan of Marshall Carpet One and what they do because when you’re there, you’re not just a customer, you’re family. ❤️
@Phillip Banes I did a wedding a few weeks ago and only a few of the images were shot in RAW, I must tell ya, I felt somewhat liberated! Much faster editing time, my computer was faster due to the smaller files, also truth be told, only an expert could have distinguish the difference, my client certainly could not. I am not lambasting the virtues of RAW, however I am saying, JPEG ant bad at all! Thanks PB.
Why not just shoot jpeg and RAW, and then you've got the jpeg with the simulations, and you've also got the RAW to process as you normally would if you want or need too .... But I just knew you'd say that at the end.
The whole "RAW or nothing" mentality is old and outdated, stuck way back in the mid 2000s when digital DSLRs were new and in camera JPEGs did indeed suck. It changed not long after that though. Canon has been producing excellent looking JPEGs for over a decade now, and so have Sony and Fuji in more recent years. Its always funny where you see the usual UA-cam reviewers shocked how good JPEGs look on new cameras they test and post photos of because there are no RAW profiles yet. Does anyone look at those and know those were shot JPEG and not RAW just by looking at them? Of course not. Ive been shooting professionally for 15 years, been published everywhere from Playboy and Maxim to GQ and Muscle and fitness magazines, every single photo published has been a JPEG. Never had a single complaint from an editor or an art director about the files I delivered to them. Ive experimented with RAW of course but I know my gear and Im never in situations where I need to lift 4 stops of shadows in post, which is the only major advantage RAW files have. More colors in RAW? Sure, but the viewer is never going to see that In the finished product once that RAW file has been resized and compressed. Ive done many a test on social media posting RAW and JPEG photos, no one can ever tell which photo is which. RAW is massively overrated.
Shooting jpg is limited? Isnt that the same as shooting BW HP5? Or Ektar? You already limited yoirself to a color pallet. Not sure what has happened to this channel.
Shooting a JPEG is the same as shooting HP5 or Ektar? What? I said shooting in a jpeg format is limiting your flexibility in the processing compared to a raw file, which is just the objective truth. I don't understand what you mean what happened to this channel...
I like you so much! .. but I just don't get it .. all these shots could have been done with an iPhone. Truly! .. Please explain in an upcoming video why why why a Fuji X100V and not use an iPhone. Thanks so much !
@lorem honestly, you could take ANY photo with an iPhone… BUT, it won’t look this good. I own this camera (and others) and the latest iPhone and even shooting RAW with iPhone and editing in post, iPhone photos usually lack depth, dynamic range, and feel. And as a photographer, using a real camera connects you further to the moment and is a much better tool for taking serious photos vs an iPhone. And don’t even get me started on the colors… 😂
First and foremost, thank you for liking me. Hahaha. I get the sentiment in what you’re saying. I use my iPhone for plenty of family snaps but in terms of getting the same end result, there’s no comparison for me. If I’m trying to make anything compelling or even just a pretty picture, I use my iPhone when it’s the last resort/only camera on me.
None of these images look like film. You paid $1000 for a glorified video still, when you could have spent 50 cents for a film still. Want it to look like film? Shoot film.
First
But not last :)

As a professional sports photographer, I only edit jpgs.
I also shoot pro and the editors only accept JPEG image. If the light is " tricky," I may shoot RAW but must convert before delivering the images.
I can understand why for sports!
@@RickMentore yeah, RAW for back up. Jpg’s are just so good for most cases. I had one picture this year that could only be saved using a RAW file.
