Wondering how to store film simulation recipes custom setting? After showing what are the best vintage film simulation recipes I’m using on my Fujifilm X-T30, this post will reveal the steps on how to store custom film recipes on your camera.

By using the Q button on the Fuji camera, we can quickly access and select any film simulations, including the original and the custom film recipes. As I mentioned before, we can store up to 7 custom film simulation recipes setting on Fujifilm cameras.

As for the white balance of each film recipe, it is recommended to choose a custom film recipe with a different WB selection. To make it simple, I choose each recipe that uses only one white balance for one recipe. For example, CineStill 800T uses Fluorescent Light 3 and I only set the WB just for the recipe and avoid using another recipe with the same Fluorescent Light 3 white balance. The white balance adjustment is shared across all custom film recipes, if you alter the White Balance Shift, it will also affect the WB shift of other recipes as well. So it is best to use only one specific white balance for one recipe. Kodak Portra 400 recipe for portrait photographers, uses Daylight White Balance, so make sure you only use the White Balance just for the recipe itself.

As for which film recipes custom setting to use, you can either choose the custom film simulation recipes from Fujixweekly or customize one to your liking. You can also refer to some of Fujifilm’s most popular custom film recipes used by other Fujifilm shooters.
