Cinestill 800T, alongside Kodak Gold 200 and Kodak Portra 400, is arguably one of the films that has significantly fueled the analog photography revival. Its siblings, Cinestill 50D and 400D, are a bit less famous but have also contributed to this resurgence. You don’t need to photograph gas stations at night or Berlin subway stations to appreciate Cinestill films. In fact, they shine especially when used in ways that break free from Instagram clichés.
Cinestill 50D finds its moment in urban landscape photography, while 400D and 800T are outstanding all-rounders capable of being both gritty and enchantingly soft.
The Classic ECN2 Profiles 2025 capture the essence of these legends of modern analog photography. Particular attention is given to Cinestill 800T with three presets that span the spectrum from rough and gritty lab scans to meticulous home scans. Each of the three films is represented with three foundational profiles that, as always, include elements that are hard to replicate in Lightroom alone.
The presets for 50D, 400D, and 800T are built upon these profiles while adding their own unique adjustments. Currently, the profiles are based on Frontier scans. Noritsu scans will be introduced in late 2025 via a free update.
