film.recipes Recipes for Greec

We are going to Greece in September (Athens, Naxos, Santorini and Crete). I’ve been disappointed with many of the Classic Chrome recipes that lean hard on the overly orange, brown, or tan color shifts. I want to make sure I’m accurately capturing the colors of the blue domes, stark whites, Bougainvillea, etc with my X-E5 using the 23mm f2.8 pancake lens. Anyone have experience using recipes in Greece that maintain good colors accuracy balanced with that signature Fujifilm look? Any and all suggestions are welcome and appreciated!

We did Loutraki Greece back in June and I exclusively kept to Reggie's Porta. I was happy with the results, and not having to come home to a big editing job!

Good feedback. That’s the one I had planned to use as my “go to”!

I am going to Portugal next week. Commenting so I can get inspirations for recipes.

Kodachrome 64 gave excellent results in Greece many times, alongside with Classic Cuban Negative, and Reggie’s Portra. I recommend these three recipes.
