How To Quickly Access Your Fujifilm Film Simulation Recipes and About the Missed Film Simulation Dial Opportunity

Share

We just reported about the dedicated Film Simulation Photowalks that Fujifilm USA has organized together with Fujifilm X Weekly.

Well, one more thing just came to my mind, and I thought it is worth to talk about it in this article.

To me, it seems that Fujifilm USA has (finally) understood how important film simulation recipes are for the Fujifilm community.

Sadly we can’t say the same of Fujifilm Japan, who is not putting any marketing effort into promoting film simulation recipes.

Sure, Fujifilm Japan did give us the film simulation dial on the Fujifilm X-T50, but the fact that you can’t assign a recipe to the FS1, FS2 and FS3 position to the dial shows that Fujifilm Japan has not yet understood the importance of recipes for us Fujifilm shooters.

I hope Fujifilm Japan takes a marketing lesson from Fujifilm USA and gives us a simple firmware update that allows us to assign recipes on the film simulation dial.

But with all that said: there is a quick way to access your recipes. You have to go through the C position on the dial and then you can select between 7 recipes that you’ve set. Fuji Guy Francis will run you through it quickly below.

That’s nice and good, but it would have been fantastic to have our favorite top 3 recipes set right on the dial (FS1, FS2, FS3) and accessible with a simple turn of the dial.
