Highlight -1 and Shadow 0 give softer highlights. Colour +1 pushes saturation, Colour Chrome Effect Strong adds density to saturated colors, FX Blue Weak deepens blues, and Auto white balance shifted R +1 / B -1 makes it warmer. Clarity -2 softens midtones, light, coarse grain, and High ISO NR -3 keeps more texture.

Against Fujifilm’s starting point for Nostalgic Neg., Colour goes up to +1 from 0. Highlight, Shadow, Sharpness, and Grain stay at the stock value.

Exposure: ISO Auto up to 3200, exposure compensation +1/3, and DR200.
