Fujifilm film simulations

Fujifilm has made 20 film simulations since the X100 in 2011, but no older camera has all of them. Here is what each one looks like, which cameras have it, and how closely RAF Film Lab matches the camera's own rendering.

Which film simulations does my camera have?

Each camera with its latest firmware. A RAF doesn't contain a film, so the gaps aren't permanent: RAF Film Lab renders every film on RAFs from every camera here. Acros and Monochrome each count four, with their filters.

How close each film is to the camera

Measured on 31 X100VI RAWs against the camera's own renders from X RAW STUDIO. Colour films are scored in CIEDE2000 (ΔE), black and white as lightness difference (L*), over flat areas of each frame. How we measure.

Questions

How many film simulations do Fujifilm cameras have?

Twenty, counting Acros and Monochrome with each of their yellow, red and green filters, plus Sepia. No camera has all twenty unless it's one of the newest: older bodies have between 8 and 20, depending on generation and firmware. RAF Film Lab renders all twenty on any RAF.

What is the newest Fujifilm film simulation?

Reala Ace, introduced on the GFX100 II, in 2023. 12 cameras have it: X-T30 III, X-E5, GFX100RF, X100VI, X-T50, X-M5, GFX100S II, X-S20, GFX100 II, X-T5, X-H2S and X-H2.

Can I add a film simulation to an older Fujifilm camera?

Not to the camera: only Fujifilm can add films, by firmware, and it rarely adds them to older bodies. But a RAF doesn't contain a film, so software can apply any film to it later. RAF Film Lab renders every film on RAFs from every camera on this page.

Does Lightroom have Fujifilm film simulations?

Lightroom has Camera Matching profiles that approximate them, offered per camera. They don't apply the rest of a recipe, such as Grain Effect, Color Chrome or Dynamic Range. See the comparison.
