Photoshop experts - simulating Kodachrome look?
« on: April 10, 2006, 09:37:15 PM »
Does anyone know what filters I can apply to a digital camera image to simulate the grain and "warm sunny day" palette of Kodachrome film?

I'd suggest an 81A to give the shots warmth. As far as grain goes, you could play with the noise level in the shots a bit.

You could always shoot Kodachrome film...  Tongue

I have two rolls of Kodachrome 64 in my freezer.  Dunno what I'm going to do with it, but I have it.

I didn't find anything on that first site (?), but I tried out a demo of the software from the second site.  Didn't really work to my satisfaction.  Thanks though.

I too have a roll of K64 in my freezer.  Maybe I can do a test shoot sometime and make a project of coming up with my own process.
