Want your own custom styles?

Fujifilm "film recipes" are a great way to pre-process your photos so you don't need to post-process. But the ones you find online may not match your own style.

Learn how to create styles unique to you in your Fujifilm X/GFX camera.

"An absolutely brilliant course! Without John's courses, I wouldn't be able to maximise the use of my Fujifilm camera at all. He makes it understandable, and achievable. Now for the fun!! :-)"

This is a great course for guiding you through the steps of building and fine-tuning your own recipes to capture just the right look that you had in your head. It also covered some gotchas I wish I'd known about before I made some mistakes in the field.

Rick Rohles

The complexity of customizing Film Simulations using Fujifilm cameras along with X RAW Studio is simplified, well paced and brilliantly explained in this course. A “must see” if you want to get head around this powerful Fujifilm feature.

Bianca Elizalde

This is perhaps the most comprehensive course out there on Fujifilm film simulations and how to modify it to your liking. It's easy to follow, presented wonderfully with good video and explanations, it will change the way you shoot with your Fujifilm camera.

David Lightner

Thank you, this is the concise information in learning how to create the film look I want. This is an extremely comprehensive approach and takes a lot of the trial and error out of using the Fuji x cameras successfully.

This course will work for nearly any Fujifilm X and GFX mirrorless cameras. However, some cameras do not allow you to program custom settings into the camera. These are the X-T100, X-T200, X-A5, and X-A7. The X-S10 does allow this, but you only get four settings while other cameras allow for seven.
