V500T, a free Vision3 500T style night film filter
Cool, flat and cinematic: V500T is inspired by Kodak Vision3 500T, the tungsten-balanced movie film used for night and interior scenes.
About Kodak Vision3 500T and V500T
Vision3 500T is a fast color negative motion picture film balanced for tungsten light. With its remjet backing intact, it doesn't produce the red halos CineStill is known for, and it has a famously wide latitude.
V500T gives you a cool, low-contrast, cinematic color balance with smooth shadows and no glow. It's ideal when you want the night-movie mood but clean highlights.
