Cinestill 800T, alongside Kodak Gold 200 and Kodak Portra 400, is arguably one of the films that has significantly fueled the analog photography revival. Its siblings, Cinestill 50D and 400D, are a bit less famous but have also contributed to this resurgence.

Kodak Vision 3 is the motion picture stock underneath all three — the same material behind the look of films like The Hateful Eight and La La Land. Cinestill's remjet-free versions made it possible to shoot Vision 3 as a still film, and from there it became possible to build Lightroom color profiles that recreate that same cinematic character on any digital camera.

You don't need to photograph gas stations at night or Berlin subway stations to appreciate Cinestill films. In fact, they shine especially when used in ways that break free from Instagram clichés. Cinestill 50D finds its moment in urban landscape photography, while 400D and 800T are outstanding all-rounders capable of being both gritty and enchantingly soft.

Classic ECN-2 2025

The Classic ECN-2 Profiles 2025 capture the essence of these three films. Particular attention goes to Cinestill 800T, with presets spanning the spectrum from rough, gritty lab scans to meticulous home scans. Each film is represented by foundational profiles built to reproduce detail that's hard to replicate in Lightroom alone — with the 50D, 400D and 800T presets adding their own distinct adjustments on top.

The profiles are based on Frontier scans, with Noritsu scans planned as a free update.

This product works with Adobe Lightroom CC (cloud), CameraRAW (10.3 and above) and Lightroom Classic CC (7.3 and above). To use it with Lightroom Mobile, you'll need Lightroom CC or Classic CC running on Windows or macOS.
