X-CHROME brings the power of a black & white darkroom into your Lightroom workflow

The truth is, film emulation isn't enough. The real power of the black and white darkroom is in the combination of three key ingredients:

  • The Film.
  • The Chemical Developer. 
  • The Toner & Paper Type. 

It's only by using all three of these tools together that the masters of black and white were able to create legendary photos.


 Film + Developer + Toners & Papers

X-CHROME includes film emulations, chemical developer emulations, toner emulations & paper emulations. And they all work together to give you total control over the way you develop your black and white photos.

Each group of emulations is designed to interact intelligently with the other. So, for instance, the grain structure for Kodak TRI-X 400 changes when you use Rodinal vs XTOL for development, just as it would in real life.

Here's what's inside:

FILM:

  • Polaroid Type 55 // push // pull
  • Fuji Neopan Acros 100 // push
  • Kodak TRI-X 400
  • Kodak TRI-X 800
  • Kodak TRI-X 1600
  • Kodak TRI-X 3200
  • Kodak TRI-X 6400
  • Ilford HP5 400
  • Ilford HP5 800
  • Ilford HP5 1600
  • Ilford HP5 3200
