Mastin Labs has released a new collection of presets for Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop that aim to emulate the look of three iconic Kodak film stocks.
Titled ‘Kodak Everyday,’ this new preset pack includes film emulations for Kodak Ektar 100, Kodak Gold 200 and Kodak Tri-X 400 film stocks. In Mastin Labs’ words, this ‘pack has three distinct looks: bright and vivid, gold and lush, or rich black and white tones.’

In addition to the base presets that come in the pack, Mastin Labs also includes toning profiles, custom white balance settings, and grain settings that replicate 35mm and medium format film grain structure. ‘Our color science recreates the micro-contrast of real film for a clean, three-dimensional look,’ says Mastin Labs on its product page.

Mastin Labs says the presets are color-calibrated for Canon, Nikon, Sony, and Fujifilm X-series cameras (except for the X100). If you’re using another brand camera, Mastin Labs suggests using the Canon preset, which will give you similar results with only a ‘slight reduction in accuracy.’
The ‘Kodak Everyday’ preset pack is the fifth set Mastin Labs has put out to date, including its Ilford, Fujicolor, Fujicolor Pushed, Portra and Portra Pushed packs.

At $ 99, the ‘Kodak Everyday’ pack is identical in price to DxO FilmPack 5 Elite Edition and a bit steeper than Visual Supply Company preset packs, which run $ 59 a piece.
The Kodak Everyday pack requires Adobe Lightroom 7.3 or Adobe Camera Raw 10.4 or later and work with both MacOS and Windows computers. RAW, NEF and RAF RAW files are all supported.
