Gorgeous! Which RNI Preset did you opt for this time? I swear RNI+Pentax+FA Ltds is a match made in heaven!

Thank you! Indeed it seems to be a great match. I went for the Polaroid 600 one. Slightly modified the temperature and bumped the 'texture' up a bit, which is the new feature in Lightroom after their last update. I have the RNI demo version for now - a set of 4 presets, as I'm still working on convincing myself that buying the full package will be worth it. In the meantime I am saving the money, hehe. But it feels OK that their narrative is "we are a bunch of pros developing this and we're focused on quality" and you don't just slap a gimmicky filter on top of your image - maybe the limiteds bring out the best of the presets too

I do have the pro version. It's (really) nice. lol. BUT... you can suffer the issue of just having so many presets it's hard to get started. I kinda wish I stayed on Lite

Yeah I need to update my LR...

Yes, that's another problem. For instance, I tried DXO's pro filmpack before and they seem to be too many

.

My issue with the RNI ones is that their Lightroom CC presets are just 10 at the moment and I am kind of getting used to the CC workflow. They cost the same price as the Lite version for Lightroom Classic which is like 40+? It doesn't add up, unless they haven't updated their website properly recently.

Ah yeah, I noticed that the other day too. One of the things that has stopped me from using LR CC is the lack of plugin and preset support, however I did notice that RNI have ported across some RNI presets (which I guess we have to be thankful for). I dunno if they will port more or not, personally I think I will be remaining under LR Classic for a good while yet (and thus make sure I get my monies worth).
