I Am a Camera's night recipe on Cinema (Green), made after shooting Soho and Chinatown alongside a roll of CineStill 800T. White balance sits at a tungsten 3200K with a strong push toward green, so neon and street light take on a cool, green-leaning cast. Sharpness and Clarity come down for a softer frame, with a little grain on top.

From the creator

He says up front that it will not give you the red halos around bright lights that CineStill is known for. For glowing highlights he points to the HDF models, or a black mist filter on the GA-3 adapter, and suggests a 1/4 strength to get close to the HDF. If you want brighter, poppier color at night, he suggests trying Positive Film as the base.
