Fujifilm Simulation Part 1: The Universal Model - Provia

There are some core competitions for selling cameras. For example, Sony is relying on hardware stacks, such as A7RII's 4200W pixels. These five-axis anti-shake products are all based on real-looking hardware "black technology." What about Fuji? In addition to the retro appearance, mechanical control of a very strong body, the biggest selling point is to say film simulation!

Here, it is estimated that there are children's shoes to be sprayed, "What? Nima you a filter, but also mean to blow it?", we have to open this topic today, really want to spray up and there is no edge, Simply talk about this thing is good or bad, what are the characteristics. Today, I “take the world’s big deal” and shamelessly opened up a series of film simulations. Please also bear in mind.

At the request of Xiao Bian, first look at Fuji X cameras with film simulations. . In fact, it is all. I chose X-Pro2 and X-T2, both of which have all kinds of film simulations.

Why? Fuji to be a film simulation

Everyone knows that Fujifilm used to be a manufacturer of film. To be precise, it is a manufacturer that combines film, camera, and print output. Even their full name is called Fujifilm. Afterwards, the film failed, and everyone played digital. Fuji always had something to eat and had to play to its strengths. Fujifilm's best shot is film, of course. They play film for about 80 years. Naturally, they need to integrate the film's set of things into a digital camera. So it's not surprising that film simulations have emerged.

Originally, the function of film simulation is understandable, but it has attracted many people to express their aspirations. But the conscience says: Under the premise that the photo quality is good enough, it's not a good idea to try to get the straight-out effect as good as possible. It's not for you to be late. Moreover, the fact is that not everyone can leisurely late, school coloring, late style, it is also quite troublesome, Fuji position is quite wide.

Well, the above nonsense chat a lot, the following return to the topic. There are many kinds of Fujifilm simulations, so far there have been 15 in total. Let's talk about Provia today. This mode is set by the Fujifilm camera as "standard mode". That is, by default, it is shot in this mode. What are the characteristics of this thing? Let's take a look at Universal Film Simulation today - Provia.

Provia features

* Versatility

There is a very interesting metaphor in the Fuji official Provia, the English text is like this:

Loading a B Translation: Provia is like a "king" when playing cards. It is the strongest card, so when you don't know what film to use, Provia is definitely not wrong.

Although it may be a bit exaggerated to say that Provia is a "king", this is mainly to show that Provia is very versatile. No matter what the shooting situation is, when you can't shoot, use Provia. Here is a diagram to explain:

The abscissa indicates saturation, and the ordinate indicates tone. Provia is exactly at the origin of the entire coordinate. Explains that Provia is the most neutral and versatile film simulation. In fact, although Provia is said to be a "standard model" on the camera, in fact, according to Fuji engineers, they prefer to call Provia called universal mode. The origin of the coordinates should be painted as a larger "big circle." Represents greater versatility.

* Basic film simulation

Just mentioned Provia has a lot of versatility, in fact, is more neutral than other film simulation, so Provia is more suitable for you to do the color adjustment. Fuji played all know that Fuji X series camera has a bunch of color settings, in addition to film simulation, you can also adjust for highlights and shadows individually, adjust these parameters when using Provia, because Provia is more neutral, so you can Intuitively, the performance of these adjustments comes out. The pot friends set up in the love drum machine may wish to start coloring with rich Provia.

In fact, when I use it, I think there will be a strange phenomenon. Although other film simulations seem to have more features, they are still used the most in the end, but Provia is used most frequently. On the one hand, other film simulations are more difficult to master and tend to be style-oriented. It will be more obvious; the other is that the color tends to be a problem. Just playing a photo shoot would like to have a high contrast, high saturation, and later through various "big wet" influences, but also turned back to the point "fresh style"?

* Come to the deception

In the end, a lost photo was taken. It was not good enough for everyone to lightly spray. All Provia went straight out and looked at the colors. Originally did not want too much evaluation of the hair color, but Xiao Bian children's shoes raised me again, let me enrich, okay, casually talk about.

X70

It should be said that almost all color films are sensitive to red. The exposure of this photo is more appropriate. It looks like the petal has more details. If you are using Velvia, it is estimated that the details will be eaten a lot. The feeling of Provia film simulation is to make the red hair color more natural, not So heavy pressure will not appear too frivolous.

X-T10&XF56MM F1.2

This light ratio is slightly larger, and the exposure is slightly overdue. Provia's green performance is “clear” in this sunny environment. Here you can take a look at the XF56 1.2 out of focus, or a good one.

X-T10&XF18-55MM F2.8-4

X-E2S&XF23mm F2 Provia

X-E2S&XF23mm F2 Astia

Provia's overall color performance will feel more "ordinary", and some people may prefer Velvia, which is more saturated. Compared with Astia, Astia's contrast performance will be softer, but it's hard to tell if it's a real thumb.

X-E2S&XF23mm F2

In the end, it is a blue expression, which makes people feel very pleasing. It is clean. Everyone can compare and contrast with other machines.
