Fuji film simulations in Lightroom 6

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

Proud new owner of an X Pro 2 here...

 

As I'm getting to know the camera one of my first tasks is to learn the various Film Simulation modes.  I have figured out both how to change the film "stock" and also to bracket film simulation modes (great feature!).

 

However, when I bring the jpegs into the latest version of Lightroom CC there is no field that says which film mode the photo was taken in, so there goes my learning process.

 

Is there any way to display this information in Lightroom, or if not, in perhaps some other software?  Worst case scenario I will have to write down the name of a film stock and walk around taking photos with the sign in the frame -- talk about old school...

 

Another related question:  I feel I read somewhere that Lightroom can do its own post-processing using simulacra of Fuji film stocks.  Is this a pug-in I need to download and install, or Presets that need to be downloaded.

 

Thanks for any help.

LR only shows a small subset of the available EXIF data. If you want to see all, including the film sim, then use EXIFTOOL.

 

If you want to see all data in LR then use the plugin, available here

The plug in uses the EXIFTOOL to view in within the LR interface.

 

Second question - you can use the Fuji sims within LR on the RAW versions of the file. This is without plugin, it's within the LR Develop module. Only available to RAW files, not JPGs, which already have the sim "baked" in. With the RAW files LR allows you to change the sim in post processing.

 

Personally I've used the plugin I mentioned, and it works. However I just don't care anymore, I just take pics in provia and have done with it. There's really not much difference in any of them and provia works for me.

    • Hello. Thankyou,now Is all more clear: I have take some time in your link. Let tell you. I has totaly forget this machine have "compress picture option" and not Only "compress lossless" anyway not change the experiment. RAW  and this last two format look like same result about Number of recording picture. Can tell all results in this: in raw you can make 17 pictures for second. Is wrong. Is about One single Press and wait buffer. Full 30/20/10/8 not change. After 17 Need Press again. You not can Press before "redgreen light recording Is on".   With preshot you can have 25  are more 7 pictures . The story change Only in jpg shot only. In jpg at 30 you have 30 picture but redgreen light off very Fast so you can shot very quicly. At 20 shot Is about start look like infinite shot. 60. So the best performance are this last One  about Speed and recording picture after camera working witout big limit. I want take a shot about Italy cyclet Just for passion. I think i Will use this last setting.  After Need check when battery not are full change and ambient temp.  Anyway my cam look like exactly specific about you link. Im Happy my cam working perfectly.
    • I do not use Flickr, so I do not know what their BB code is. All I did was copy the second link you provided, (starting at https: and ending at  _k.jpg — leave off the [img] and [/img] tags) and pasted it into the message. After a moment, a message popped up asking if I wanted to paste it as the image or as a plain link. I did this twice, the first time I had it paste in as the image and the second time as a link. Nothing fancy or tricky.
    • So do I just copy the BB code from flickr and paste it anywhere on the page like other forums or is there some other trick I need to perform to get it to post?
    • All software is the latest between camera and app. All settings are correct on camera. I have both lossless and uncompressed RAW files on the card in the camera. I have been up and down every reddit thread to no avail and am losing my mind… I’m doing all of the right things. It even sees my camera. It just doesn’t create the “drive” for it (see attached image screenshot).  Please Help!

    • Not sure how to delete threads, but I figured out what was wrong. In short, I was partially misunderstanding the view-mode's function. Also, the "+LCD Image Display" part requires that you have the Image Disp. setting set to anything but Off. Then it will display your last image on the LCD. If it's off, it's behavior will be exactly like the plain Eye Sensor setting.
