Deep dives into settings, feature walkthroughs, and honest tips based on how these cameras actually behave in the field.
Use the search option to find specific articles, or head to the main blog to browse camera reviews and longer pieces.
For camera reviews, other thoughts, and longer reads that are not Fuji-related, the main blog has everything not covered here.
Search works best with short, specific terms. Try x100vi settings, classic chrome recipe, back button focus, or film simulation comparison. If you're looking for help with a specific camera model, just type the name.

quick to load, fun to tweak.
Fujifilm cameras are great for shooting straight out of the camera, and film simulations are half the fun.
Below you'll find a collection of go-to JPEG recipes: some built for specific looks, others for certain light or moods. They're tested in real-world conditions. You can adapt them, break them and make them yours.

— Lightroom presetsFilm-inspired Lightroom presets
for RAW shooters.
If you shoot RAW and want to speed up your editing — or give your images that final bit of polish — these presets are built from years of processing real-world images. Subtle, filmic, and designed to work across weddings, street, and documentary work. Especially useful if you want your RAW files to feel like they belong next to your JPEGs.
— Lightroom pluginsLightroom Classic
plugins and toolkits.
If you use Lightroom Classic, these plugins extend what it can do — particularly for Fujifilm-specific workflow, monochrome processing, and batch editing. Built from the kind of frustrations that come from editing thousands of images and wishing the software did something slightly differently.
Fujifilm X100VI Armoury - Lightroom Toolkit Plugin
Mullins X100VI Armoury is a Lightroom Classic plug-in built specifically for Fujifilm X100VI photographers who shoot RAW and want a faster, more enjoyable editing workflow.
Mullins Monochrome Studio Lightroom Plugin
Mullins Monochrome Studio is a Lightroom Classic plugin built for photographers who want brilliant black-and-white without messing about for half an hour.
— Kind wordsFrom the Fujifilm community.
“Kevin, your incredible knowledge and grace of giving has been a huge help for me over the years. Ten years ago it was you that made me choose Fuji, and I've learned so much from you in that time.”
“I’ve watched countless YouTube videos, but Kevin’s guides are the first that actually made sense of my Fujifilm settings. I finally feel like I understand what my camera is doing.”
“I never understood back button focusing until I read the article here. It's completely changed how I shoot. I recommend it to everyone in our camera club.”

— About KevinThe photographer
behind the hub.
I've been shooting Fujifilm since 2009 — first an original FinePix X100, then the X-Pro series, and eventually the GFX alongside it.
In 2013, I became the first documentary wedding photographer to be appointed a Fujifilm X-Photographer ambassador, a role I held for over a decade.
Along the way, I've photographed nearly two decades of weddings — more than 800 of them — which means I've used these cameras in real conditions, real light, and real pressure.
I've given talks and training in Buenos Aires, New York, Tokyo, and at conferences across the UK. But I still get just as much satisfaction helping someone finally work out their film simulation settings on an X100VI.
This hub is an extension of that: practical, independent, and based on what's actually made a difference in the field.

About Kevin
I was one of the first official Fujifilm X-Photographers in the UK and have used Fujifilm gear professionally across over 800 weddings, countless street photography workshops, and personal documentary projects. As part of my career I often speak at events for Fujifilm in places as wide ranging as Photokina in Germany, Store Openings in China, Fujifilm Festivals in The United States and many other places.
This course isn’t about theory — it’s about helping you shoot quicker, more confidently, and with purpose using a Fujifilm setup that works for you.
