Exactly, it's just another option.  I personally haven't tried to emulate film with digital, but there is a lot of creative potential in this option .

Forget about the fact that it is called film pack, just call it "tastes" like Silkypix does and it will become more acceptable all of a sudden. :-)

I agree that this is the right way to regard this tool.

Does any one have favorite "Tastes" based upon past film experience?

he he he :-)

At the risk of looking like a film nostalgic, I  like the way DxO renders Provia and Astia, just like I like(d) the look of these films.

Cheers,
Bernard

Chocolate is good.  

Marc, why don't you just scroll through them with an image open and see how they effect it? That is the best way to get familiar and see if there will be any use for specific destinations you have in mind for various work. You will see the changes as you scroll through them. The grain will only be visible when viewing at 100% I believe. If nothing blows your skirt up then you can just turn filmpack off, select your camera body and go on with it.

I will be looking forward to any comparison reviews with DXO and other raw converters. I have had years with ACR and DPP now and don't even think about them after using DXO for one off images which is how I work. They have taken control to a whole new level. I haven't used any of the other raw converters though.

Yes when I have time I will. What I would like to accomplish is to see what others like. I know my likes and dislikes (white chocolate!) I’m more curious to learn why others like what they like. I might learn something along the way. I am a big fan of DXO having used it for a year now. I have not used many raw converters but I find silkypix and acr wanting. I get better colors sharpness etc with DXO.

Apologies for digging up an old topic.

I downloaded the filmpack last night, and had a play this morning:
