This Fujifilm simulation recipe for Kodak ColorPlus 200 captures that relaxed, vintage look. Whether you’re shooting on a sunny afternoon or under some light cloud cover, this one gives your JPEGs that mellow Kodak warmth—without the cost of film or waiting for scans.
Kodak ColorPlus 200 is often described as “warm and forgiving.” It leans toward yellow and red tones, especially in daylight. Blues are muted. Shadows keep detail, and it has a slight vintage tint even when fresh. It’s not super sharp or high contrast, which makes it great for portraits, casual shots, and everyday life.
Want a little more punch? Set Color to +2 and Highlight to 0. For a softer mood, try DR100 and bump exposure by +1.3.
Inspired by the actual film stock, this film recipe is based on the Classic Chrome and tweaks the settings to match the tones of the real Kodak ColorPlus 200 film.
You’ll get the best results from this Kodak ColorPlus 200 film recipe when you’re shooting everyday street scenes, soft portraits, or moody golden hour frames. It works especially well on overcast days or in warm-toned travel spots, where the colors feel nostalgic and mellow—just like the film. Skip bright midday sun, though; it tends to wash things out. Try late afternoons, indoor daylight, or early morning shadows instead. That’s where this recipe really starts to feel like film.
Try shooting during golden hour for a warmer tone; else if you like a stronger yellow-green shift that feels more like film, shooting at a different time of day works best. Check out the more golden hour film recipes if you want a warm tone.
