Read Time:2 Minute, 17 Second

I love the stock film Fujifilm Natura 1600 since I owned my first film camera of Natura Classica decade ago. I love Natura Classica definitely for its outlook, lightweight and the photos taken with it. I have had few rolls of Natura 1600 purchased with the help from my friend back to early 2020, after the announcement of its end of production. I don’t wanna use them but I really love the tone the film created that no other stock films coud satisfy me so far.

Sample of my Natura 1600 recipe, SOOC, taken with X100V

I got my X100V two weeks ago after struggling for weeks between GR III and X100V. I have tried so many existing recipes from Fuji X Weekly since then. Most of them work great honestly and among the choices there, Superia 800 is my top favourite at the moment.

Indeed, I prefer a recipe of one-for-all so I decided to create my own style, make my photos in a consistent look when I take with my X100V. As you may guess it, my first attempt was to create the one I love most – Natura 1600.

Having my X100V for just two weeks, I haven’t shot enough with Fujifilm X-Trans IV in RAW by myself. I even don’t have various shooting environments with the Natura films too, especially after its end. Nonetheless, I tried my best and I love this recipe so much even though I can’t tell whether it looks accurate as Natura 1600 film or not.

Few days ago, I had published few of my sample photos on 2 Facebook Groups, which one of them is called Fujifilm Film Simulation Group, and I’m so grateful that I’ve received so much positive feedbacks. That encourges me to make this article so people who love this recipe could come and take a look.

Now, I encourage all of you to shoot in diifferent shooting environments, kindly send me back your feedback and any improvement that I could further work on this recipe. Here are the gallery and the recipe of it. Again, all taken with X100V, JPEG SOOC, no edit but just resize 50% using MS Paint (yes, no professional tool). Thank you for visiting my blog, and hope you enjoy it.

Yeah I know, the recipe here:

Enjoy!
