I love Nikon's Picture Controls. They're functionally equivalent to r/ricohGR and r/fujifilm recipes. Unfortunately, there's not enough adoption from the community, which might be because it's hard to try them out quickly.

(Also because Nikon barely markets the feature, and their official creators only have one sample picture per recipe. That makes it difficult to know whether you like the recipe or just the picture).

To get the picture controls, you need to transfer them to your camera - 9 at a time. With 110 official recipes, that just takes too long. Nikon does not publish the direct .NP3 file for us to download. So I made a repo with them all included!

The idea is, you can load 100s of recipes at a time into NX studio, and then cycle through the recipes on your existing photos really quickly. This lets you try the recipes on existing photos you like, and also lets you try many at a time very quickly.

What's in it:

• 110 Nikon Creator recipes: the full official set from Nikon's global creator program (GoldenHourGlow, CineM, DGFilmLook, the full CineBias series, vintage film looks, B&W emulations, and a lot more)
• 30 Nikon Color Grading presets: the official Bleach Bypass, Color Mode, and Negative series
• 2 NikonPC classics: Kodachrome and Kodak T-Max 400
• 44 third-party recipes from Alex Armitage, Filmstill, Scott Tucker, and Stephen Morais — mostly analog film stock emulations (Portra, Ektar, Velvia, Provia, Ilford, etc.)

How I Downloaded The Recipes

1. Connect your Expeed 7 camera to Nikon Imaging Cloud
2. Browse and save recipes - add favorites to Saved Recipes, then send up to 9 at a time to your camera.
3. Shoot one RAW photo with each newly loaded Picture Control active.
4. In NX Studio, open each photo and go to Basic Edit Palettes → Picture Control → [recipe name] → Add to Custom Picture Controls and save.
5. Export the custom picture control to a file.

As you can see, this quite a manual process. That is why I went through all the profiles so that others may simply download their favorite profile with ease.

All .NP3 and .NCP files, are also ready to drop on an SD card and load straight into your camera.

Nikon Zf Nikkor 28mm Imagens diretamente da câmera com as film simulations, sem edições

I don't have much experience in astro photography, but I could miss the chance os taking those photos in a place that is considered one of the best night skies in Brazil.

Nikon Zf Nikkor 28mm f2.8 Most photos in ISO 20000 and exposure time between 13s and 15s

Just sharing a few captured moments with my Nikon ZF

Color X B&W

I know I’m not alone in this. feeling grateful for falling in love with photography, and finding joy in capturing moments. 📸

And during this trip, I realized something too:

no matter what lenses I brought with me, the 24-120 f/4 S always stayed on my Zf most of the time.

But once the sun went down, the 50mm f/1.8 S somehow always found its way back onto my camera.

Location: Hangzhou China .

The B&W switch on the Zf makes it so fun and easy to take Black and White pictures, with and without the film grain options. I really like the JPEGs this camera produces. I didn't use to take many B&W pictures before getting this camera. Loving it so far, especially since I'm usually too lazy to edit pictures.

Compared to the Voigtlander 40/1.2 Nokton and the Nikkor 40/2.
