Fade in camera: Saturation -1, Hue -4, Key +4 and Contrast -3 with both contrast splits at -4 make a matte, washed print, and a Shade base warms it like an old album page. The most faded look on his site.

The ISO here is the author's suggested Auto-ISO ceiling - noise at high ISO reads as film grain, so it's part of the look, not just exposure.

From the creator

Ritchie suggests exposure compensation between 0 and +2/3.

Camera compatibility

Originally created for the GR III - popular on the GR IV too. Every value dials straight in; the presets and settings are identical across bodies. The GR IV's newer sensor renders a touch warmer and brighter, so treat this as a starting point, not a guaranteed match; if it looks too warm, a small white-balance nudge toward blue brings it closer.
