Playing around with Fujifilm Film Simulation Recipes - can someone knowledgeable ( @smoke665 ) tell me how realistic this is to Ektachrome??? Thanks!!!

If my old memory still works, it seems a bit too warm for Ektachrome. I recall a slight blueish cast to it.

Happy Thanksgiving! Like the above comment maybe a touch more blue/green

Which Ektachrome?

Another vote for a cooler look to Ekatachrome. If I recall, it had good greens and blues. Kodachrome was warmer like this, but both had more vivid colors, again, if I remember correctly.

ASA 64 was the one most people I knew used. I tried it but was not happy with it, Kodachrome was not that much slower and looked much better to me.

Edit to add: Ektachrome was one of color films that was reasonable to process at home though.

Thanks for all the input - I lowered the White Balance from 7100K to 6500K...will have to try it...to see the difference.

Again thank you!

I was late to E6 films. Only ever shot Kodak EliteChrome 100, E100, E100S and E100SW. Posted shot is way too warm.
