Fast, Nondestructive, and Adjustable

These actions run fast – about 3-4 times faster than similar software such as Nik Color Efex. All of the layers are fully editable and nondestructive. You can adjust the settings of each layer simply by changing the layer opacity.

Accurate Colors

In terms of color and accuracy, I say it’s in between Nik’s Color Efex and VSCO’s Lightroom presets. Some films (ex. Fuji 160C) look almost exactly like VSCO’s Lightroom presets while others (ex. Fujichrome Velvia 100) look almost exactly like Nik’s Color Efex without the oversaturation. SparkleStock is pretty good with their colors and they’re popular for creating the most accurate Instagram effects for Photoshopand Lightroom. The image below shows a comparison between different products using the Fuji 160C preset. You can find the photo that was used on ShutterStock.

Seamless Film Grain Made From Real Film Scans

When you add digital noise using the Photoshop or Lightroom noise filter, it looks fake. That’s because they simply add dots to your image with no control over the size and shape of the grain. To increase the realism, this product is the only one that utilizes a unique film grain for each action. And the grain textures look great because they’re created from real film scans.
