Standard works with every camera. Professional adds a neutral profile for your camera model underneath the film stock, so a wedding shot on two bodies comes out with one look.

  • 374 camera modelsNot listed? Use Standard, which works with every camera.
  • Both come with every editionStandard and Professional are in the same download. AVS Lab Tech picks Professional for you when your camera is supported.

        I'm enjoying these profiles more than any presets I've bought. They feel more broadly useful. I'm a hobbyist who does not enjoy editing so I'm looking for a way to process my photos more quickly - this is helpful.
        Casey K.Fujifilm, Nikon · Travel & LandscapeVerified buyer
        It’s rare to find profiles that respect the natural colors of a landscape while elevated portraits so effortlessly. These don't rely on heavy, contrasty gimmicks; instead, they provide a perfect, timeless foundation that makes skin tones look amazing and greens/earth tones blend seamlessly. A phenomenal solo project that beats out many massive preset brands.
        NathanielCanon · Portrait & EditorialVerified buyer
        The profiles and toolkit give a solid starting background. I love it to quickly complement iPhone photos to photos taken on other cameras of same event to provide more cohesive gallery.
        JOEYVerified buyer
        Very impressed with these profiles. I shoot a lot of film for personal projects, but for cost and practical reasons mostly shoot digital for commercial work and casual photography. It's great to be able to achieve a very convincing film look with the conveniences of digital. …
        NeilCanon · Architecture & InteriorVerified buyer
        Purchased this pack for the profiles but the workflow tools and lab tech plugin are where Im impressed. Great functionality with subtle accurate shifts.
        Matt S.Fujifilm · Travel & LandscapeVerified buyer
        Absolutely loving the profiles and the colors they're producing. Sebastian is a great help and has answered any questions I had in regard to the workflow as well. …
        Joseph D.Sony · MixedVerified buyer
        … I am really happy with both the tools and profiles and think they are great value for money, there are a lot of options within the pack. I would recommend!
        Rachel K.Sony · Portrait & EditorialVerified buyer
        Worked great in clean light to match my film. I had to do more tweaking to get my film to match when working in more challenging conditions but that is to be expected. Overall I have enjoyed working with these.
        TheoNikon, Fujifilm · Wedding & EventVerified buyer
        I am so skeptical to buy into products that market towards achieving a specific end goal (especially in the saturated market of film-like presets/profiles) but this is the real deal. ... This is a WORTHY tool to invest into.

        07Before you buy

        The 3D LUT-based profiles work in Lightroom, Camera Raw and Photoshop, and the ICC-based styles in Capture One.

        What you get there
        Lightroom Classic 7.3+3D LUT-based profiles and the AVS Toolkit. The AVS Lab Tech plug-in needs Lightroom Classic 12 or newer.
        Lightroom 1.3+3D LUT-based profiles and the AVS Toolkit, on desktop and, after one import on a desktop, on your phone.
        Camera Raw 10.3+3D LUT-based profiles and the AVS Toolkit, also in Photoshop.
        Capture OneICC-based styles for the camera you choose before you buy. Checked in Capture One Pro 16.8 on Mac.
        Other editorsNo. These are Lightroom profiles and Capture One styles, not .cube files.

        Questions photographers ask before they buy

        Which program do I choose?

        Choose the program you edit in. A purchase covers one program: Lightroom and Camera Raw, or Capture One.

        Can I use a pack in both programs?

        Yes. Add the second program to your order for €49 / $59 and you get the same pack for the other program.

        My camera isn't on the list. Can I still use the profiles?

        In Lightroom and Camera Raw, yes. Use the Standard version, which works with every camera Camera Raw supports. Both versions come with every pack.

        Which camera do I choose for Capture One?

        The one you shoot with most. The ICC-based styles are built for that camera. Every further camera is an add-on, and its price for this edition is shown under the camera field.

        Can I buy more than one pack?

        Yes. Packs share their files, so a profile that two packs contain is installed once.

        Can I buy single film stocks?

        No. Film stocks come in editions. The smallest are the Cine and B&W Editions, three film stocks each.

        Where are the limits?

        The profiles are built in daylight. They stay flexible in other light, but there is no promise of a perfect match at night or under extreme color. Professional needs a raw file. Capture One styles are built for one camera model.

        Can I try it first?

        Yes. Kodacolor 100 and Vision 3 250D are free at 0 EV, Standard version, for Lightroom, on the free film profiles page.
