This recipe emulates the ultra-vivid, fine-grained look of Kodak Ektar 100, delivering deep blues, rich reds, and crisp textures with professional-level color precision. Using the Vivid base and subtle sharpening, it produces punchy landscapes, vibrant objects, and striking details while maintaining a clean, filmic feel.

A slight amber and magenta white-balance shift keeps skin tones natural under daylight, while low Active D-Lighting preserves contrast and fine grain. Ideal for sunny outdoor shots, this preset highlights the bright, bold colors and sharpness that make Ektar 100 a favorite for travel, nature, and colorful scenes.
