What this look does

Warm, magenta-leaning colour with punchy reds and comparatively weak greens — the opposite bias to Superia. Contrast is moderate, grain is visible but tidy.

About Agfa Vista 200

Sold cheaply in UK chemists until 2018 and hoarded by photographers when the last batches ran out. The red response is what people miss.

Agfa Vista 200 is no longer made — what to use instead

Agfa Vista 200 went out of production around 2018. Remaining stock, where it exists at all, sells for several times its original price, and expired rolls do not render the way fresh film did.

The practical substitute is to shoot something current and apply the look afterwards, which is what this page is for — the 1 rendering here reproduce Agfa Vista 200 on any photograph, free.

If you would rather shoot film, the closest options in this library are Agfa Ultra Color 100, Fuji Superia 200, Kodak Elite Color 200 — check each for whether it is still in production.

How to use this LUT

The download is a standard .cube 3D LUT, so it loads in almost anything: Lightroom Classic (Profile → Browse), Photoshop (Color Lookup adjustment layer), Premiere Pro (Lumetri → Creative), DaVinci Resolve (LUTs panel), Final Cut Pro (Custom LUT effect), Affinity Photo, Capture One and OBS. See the step-by-step guide if you have not loaded one before.

Photographers who work in Lightroom often call these presets. Strictly they are profiles rather than presets, and the difference matters when you want to edit the look further — that distinction is explained here.

If you only want the finished picture, skip the download: open the tool, drop a photo in and export at full resolution. Nothing leaves your device.

Questions

Is Agfa Vista 200 still made?
No. Agfa Vista 200 was discontinued around 2018, which is why its look is now reproduced digitally. The 1 renderings on this page emulate it, free, with no film to buy.
Can I use Agfa Vista 200 as a Lightroom preset?
Effectively, yes. The download is a .cube LUT, and Lightroom imports those as profiles — Develop → Profile Browser → Import Profiles. A profile behaves like a preset and adds an Amount slider for strength. See LUTs versus presets for what differs.
Is the Agfa Vista 200 LUT free?
Yes. Every rendering downloads as a .cube file with no account, no email and no watermark, and the browser tool exports at full resolution for free as well.
