These four black-and-white looks start from the same portrait, so the differences come from the recipe rather than from a new subject. None of them is calibrated against a real film stock, lens, or print.

Open the ACROS example. Each link below loads that camera with animation off and playback paused at zero. Lower Mix below 100% to blend the source color back in. The 65% example shows what that does.

The untreated color portrait of a person in a black hat among leaves and trees.

Fujifilm X100VI: ACROS

Try ACROS · Read its controls

  • Simulation: ACROS
  • Exposure (EV): 0
  • ISO: 800
  • Clarity: 0%
  • Highlights: 25%
  • Grain: 0
  • Noise: 1.25
  • Seed: 17
  • Mix: 100%
The portrait in black and white with the ACROS simulation, Grain at zero, and Noise above zero.
ACROS at Grain 0. Fine texture is still there because Noise is above 0.

ACROS texture follows sensitivity and brightness. It is separate from the Grain control, so Grain 0 does not clear it while Noise stays above 0. ISO 800 here is the texture setting for this interpretation, not a claim about the camera’s file.

Set Mix to 65% and leave the rest. The dress and leaves pick up the source color again.

The ACROS portrait at 65% mix, with blue and purple returning in the dress and green in the leaves.
Mix 65%. The monochrome treatment is still the base, and the original color shows through.

  • Recipe: HP5 / darkroom print
  • Exposure (EV): 0
  • Lens Softness: 15%
  • Output Contrast: 62%
  • Grain: 1.00
  • Seed: 17
  • Mix: 100%
The same portrait with the softer contrast and grain of the Nikon F3 HP5 darkroom interpretation.
HP5 / darkroom print. Grain is part of this recipe. The F3 body does not have its own color response.

The look belongs to the lens, film, and output chain named in the recipe. It is not a measured HP5 curve.

Holga 120N: HP5 / orange filter

  • Recipe: HP5 / orange filter
  • Exposure (EV): 0.10
  • Edge Softness: 55%
  • Falloff: 50%
  • Grain: 0.85
  • Seed: 17
  • Mix: 100%
The portrait in black and white with a clearer face and softer, darker corners from the Holga recipe.
HP5 / orange filter. The face stays clearer than the corners.

The orange-filter direction uses approximate RGB weighting. It is not a spectral measurement of a glass filter. A subject in the corner is softened and darkened more than one near the center.

Polaroid SX-70: provisional black and white

Try the SX-70 recipe · Read its controls

This recipe is provisional. The reference material does not establish the stock, batch, body, and scan for a matched print. It is a monochrome treatment you can use, not a verified SX-70 black-and-white response. The effect also does not add a white instant-photo frame.

  • Recipe: B&W / modern reference
  • Exposure (EV): 0
  • Diffusion: 40%
  • Print Range: 62%
  • Color Drift: 0%
  • Unevenness: 12%
  • Seed: 17
  • Mix: 100%
The portrait softened by diffusion, with compressed tones, in the provisional Polaroid SX-70 black-and-white treatment.
Provisional B&W. Diffusion softens the face and the leaves together.

How this example was made

The photograph is the same CC0 flower-hat portrait used for the digicam example: creator not identified on the source page, original 5760 × 3840 from a Canon EOS 5D Mark III, prior processing unknown, resized proportionally to 3600 × 2400. Each treatment was rendered separately with the production effect, animation off, at time zero. This page was prepared with AI assistance and checked against the implementations and the rendered files. Camera and film names identify the inspiration. No manufacturer endorsement is implied, and rendering can vary by device.
