Film Stocks Master List — the Canon of Top Stocks & Recipe Coverage

The reference canon of the most important film stocks per manufacturer, with this bank's coverage status. Use this to decide what to emulate next.

Datasheets: official technical datasheets for nearly every stock below (46 PDFs, characteristic curves, spectral sensitivity, granularity) are archived in X-T5/_reference-sources/datasheets/, organised by manufacturer. Gaps are listed in that folder's README.

Coverage legend: - ✅ original. Validated/research-derived recipe in X-T5/originals/ - 📗 reference. Attributed recipe in X-T5/reference-recipes/ - 🔎 available, a known X-Trans V recipe exists (Fuji X Weekly unless noted) but isn't in the bank yet - 🔶 IV-only, only an X-Trans IV recipe exists; needs porting (raise CCFXB one notch, see x-trans-v-and-conversion.md) - ❌ gap, no known faithful recipe; original-derivation candidate - ⚠interpretation, an original in X-T5/originals/ that deliberately departs from the stock (e.g. the AP set, retuned for Indian skin tones). Listed here so the stock's coverage is complete, but it does not count as neutral emulation coverage of that stock

🎬 Motion-picture stocks: the full survey (added 2026-07-27)

The Kodak cine stocks are listed under Kodak above. This section is the wider motion-picture universe, surveyed against Wikipedia's List of motion picture film stocks (the standing reference, checked via the MediaWiki API) plus manufacturer and trade sources. It exists because the bank had seven cinema originals and all seven are Kodak, a real blind spot rather than a considered scope.

The standout gap: Fujifilm's own cine line

The bank uses the ETERNA film simulation constantly and has never made a recipe for the ETERNA film stocks it is named after. Fujifilm ceased all motion-picture film production on 31 March 2013, so these are historic, but they are the direct ancestors of a simulation on the camera, which makes them the most defensible cine gap in the bank.

Stock Code Intro Note Coverage
Eterna 500T 8573/8673 2004 The flagship — the stock the simulation is named for top priority
Eterna 250D 8563/8663 2006 Daylight companion
Eterna 250T 8553/8653 2006 Tungsten mid-speed
Eterna 400T 8583/8683 2005 Discontinued 2011
Eterna Vivid 160T 8543/8643 2007 Higher-saturation variant line
Eterna Vivid 250D 8546/8646 2010
Eterna Vivid 500T 8547/8647 2009
Reala 500D 8592/8692 2001 Fourth colour layer, and "the fastest daylight-balanced colour motion picture stock ever offered". Ties directly to the Reala Ace simulation high value
Super F-series 8522/8532/8562/8572 1999 F-64D, F-125T, F-250D, F-500T — the pre-Eterna generation

Other manufacturers and lines

Stock / line Status Why it matters Coverage
ORWO NC500 / UN54 / N74–N75 in production (FilmoTec, Germany) The only genuinely new colour cine negative in decades, plus a current B&W line. The one gap here that is a current stock rather than history
Kodak Tri-X Reversal 7266 Available (16 mm) B&W camera reversal — a projected positive, a different tonal class from every negative in the bank
Kodak 2393 In production The higher-saturation print stock; the natural companion to the bank's 2383
Kodak Vision2 (5201/5205/5218) Discontinued 2007–12 The 2000s look — between Vision and Vision3
Kodak Vision (5246/5263) Discontinued The late-90s look
Kodak EXR (5245/5248/5293/5296) Discontinued 1989–2006 The 90s cinema look — a genuinely distinct era
Kodak Plus-X Reversal 7265 Discontinued B&W reversal, slower companion to Tri-X Reversal
Agfa XT / Agfapan cine Discontinued 1993 Last in the ASC Manual 7th ed. ❌ low priority
3M, DuPont, GAF/Ansco, Svema, Tasma, Forte, Slavich Long discontinued Historic completeness only ❌ not pursued

Recommended order, and the honest constraint

  1. Eterna 500T 8573, the simulation's namesake. 2. Eterna 250D 8563. 3. Reala 500D 8592. 4. ORWO NC500 (the only current stock here). 5. Tri-X Reversal 7266. 6. Kodak 2393.

⚠The constraint that governs all of these. Fujifilm's cine datasheets are not in this bank's archive and Fujifilm no longer hosts them, so an Eterna recipe would start where ColorPlus started, at the weakest evidence tier, unless a datasheet is found. Theatrical footage is also structurally blocked as scan evidence (frame-grabs carry the DI grade, see the 2383 validation). Do not open these as datasheet-derived originals without first checking whether a Fujifilm cine datasheet is actually retrievable.

Priority queue: ✅ closed 2026-07-16

All six 2026-07-15 priority items are now covered: Ektar 100 and Pro 400H as datasheet-derived originals; CineStill 400D v2, Kodachrome 25, Plus-X 125, and T-Max 100 (Hard/Soft Tone) as attributed reference recipes; Delta 3200 and Pan F Plus 50 as datasheet-derived originals (the two ❌ derivation candidates). See CHANGELOG-archive.md (2026-07-15 entries) for details.

2026-07-25: Delta 100 / 400 closed

Ilford Delta 100 and Delta 400 are now datasheet-derived originals, the datasheets had been archived since 2026-07-15 but never actually read into a recipe. Extracting them turned up a real, citable contrast target for Delta 400 (Gbar 0.62, "normal contrast") and confirmed both films' shared T-grain lineage with Delta 3200, which is now documented as a cross-cutting axis in the B&W README. Both are datasheet-tier only, no real-film scan yet for either.

Next tier of gaps (candidates for a future pass)

  1. Astia 100F 🔶. Port an X-Trans IV Astia recipe (CCFXB one notch up).
  2. Superia 100 / Fujicolor C200 🔎. Fetch FXW recipes to round out the Fuji consumer-negative family.
  3. Vericolor III 160 🔎. Portra's direct ancestor; fetch FXW recipe.
  4. Agfa Ultra 100 / Scala 200 🔎. Fetch FXW recipes; Agfa datasheets (APX, Scala) already archived.
  5. CineStill 50D ❌, no confirmed X-Trans V recipe found yet.
  6. ~~XP2 Super 400 / SFX 200~~ ✅ closed 2026-07-25, both derived from the archived Ilford sheets, the second instance of the "datasheet archived but never read" pattern. SFX carries a documented partial-fidelity caveat (see its row above).
  7. ~~FP4 Plus 125~~ ✅ closed 2026-07-25. Third instance of the archived-but-unread pattern. The sheet yielded the largest quantified latitude spec in the collection (six stops over / two under) and corrected four values in the attributed recipe.
  8. Still archived-but-unread, in rough value order: Kentmere Pan 100/400 (Ilford, ❌ and not listed above), Fomapan 100/400 (❌ below), Agfa APX 100/400 + Scala 200x (❌ below). ~~Eight~~ Seven unread PDFs as of 2026-07-26 (Ortho Plus closed). Check _reference-sources/datasheets/ against originals/ before searching the open web for anything new.

Additional recipe source, Ross McConaghy (rossandhisjpegs.com): 6 of his creative looks are now in reference-recipes/ (ross-chrome-fog, -canned-heat, -fruit-pastel, -sherbet-lemon, -pumpkin-soup, -salted-slate). His site also has film-emulation recipes that map to open gaps above and could be fetched next: Ultramax Electro (UltraMax 400, Provia base), XP2 Electro (Ilford XP2 Super, Acros+R), Fujipop Trio 1–3 (Fujicolor C200, three bases), Lomo800 Electro (Lomography 800). Note: several of his recipes were published without a stated sensor generation. Apply the CCFXB IV→V check where the base is Classic Chrome/Neg/Eterna.
