![]() Price & Availability: DxO FilmPack 5 (PC and Mac) is available now from the DxO online store at special prices until November 14, 2021: The extra color channels offer more precise control over colors and users can select their own hue in the highlights and shadows of their images, as well as combining colors and realistic split-toning effects. For a final flourish, DxO has also included 15 new frame designs including matte, black frame and film border that can transform an image with an original look and finish.įinally, DxO FilmPack 6 has a new color-rendering engine based on eight channels instead of the six channels used in previous versions. There are 15 new light leak patterns with each adding subtle plays of color. This new software also provides creative possibilities with 20 new effects to give images a vintage look. There are also seven film-simulation modes found in the X-series of Fujifilm digital cameras and there are six cinema renderings inspired by the latest trends in cinematographic color grading. DxOĭxO FilmPack also offers 15 new film renderings, including Kodak’s classic Ektachrome Professional Infrared EIR color slide film as well as the monochrome instant film used in Polaroid 600 cameras. Most brands of camera makers jumped on the bandwagon.The color rendering engine of DxO's FilmPack 6 uses eight color channels rather than the more usual. It was squarely aimed at the mass market: simple folk could load the simple cartridges in equally simple cameras. For those unfamiliar with the 126 format, it was launched by Kodak in the 1960s. ![]() I use DxO Optics Pro 8, not the most up to date program but it does the trick for me. I’ve added it twice to make up the full complement of 24 frames (the original frame 5 came out blank) and to highlight the orange colour cast that you often get with film that is well past it’s date.Īll the photos here have required some post processing, most notably pulling the RGB white balance towards the cooler, blue end to compensate. You may have noticed that photos 5 and 6 are the same. Here it is then – a whole roll, in number order, shot over a few days in January around my home city of Medway, Kent… The results can be slightly unpredictable, although big grain and orange casts are usual features. So here is my whole roll of expired film, long expired film (Kodak Gold 200 dated 1992 to be precise), and even a camera from an expired format i.e the Agfamatic 200.Įvery now and then I like to go lo-fi and will shoot a roll of 126 or 110 cartridge, when I can find some. I have gone for a whole roll where all the photos have the potential to be mishaps or alike. ![]() In the end, I have chosen a sort of wild card. I feel this roll might fit into the second category of images too similar, so maybe save this one for now. Who wants to see 24 pictures of trees? I really thought my first ‘whole roll’ post would be of a 2015 trip to the Isle of Arran in Scotland. And as soon as the challenge was set to share a whole roll, I knew this something I wanted to do.Ī quick skim through the folders on my PC (all my negatives are scanned these days) and this appeared to be harder than I first thought: either there were too many mishaps per roll or too many comparable shots per roll. After all, it is all about seeing other peoples’ work, not just their words but in particular their actual images. As soon as I saw the post by Jeremy Strange on April 3rd, I thought what a great idea – a whole roll of photographs to look at.
