Every Fujifilm recipe, film by film
Each recipe traced back to the film it emulates and the datasheet it came from. Filter by whose film it is, what kind of film, which simulation it sits on, or how fast the stock is. Every one publishes in full: the settings first, then why each control is where it is.

Built and validated on the X-T5. The X100VI, X-H2 and X-T50 use the identical X-Trans CMOS 5 HR sensor, so every recipe here transfers to them unchanged. X-Trans IV bodies (X-T4, X-S10, X-S20, X-E4, X-Pro3, X-T30 II and X100V) need the one documented conversion. Full camera compatibility.
