About Fuji Astia 100F
Astia existed because Velvia and Provia were unusable for people. Discontinued in 2011; the closest thing to a portrait transparency film ever made.

Fuji Astia 100F is no longer made — what to use instead
Fuji Astia 100F went out of production around 2011. 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 2 renderings here reproduce Fuji Astia 100F on any photograph, free.
If you would rather shoot film, the closest options in this library are Fuji Provia 100F, Fuji Sensia 100, Kodak Portra 160 — 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 Fuji Astia 100F still made?
- No. Fuji Astia 100F was discontinued around 2011, which is why its look is now reproduced digitally. The 2 renderings on this page emulate it, free, with no film to buy.
- Can I use Fuji Astia 100F as a Lightroom preset?
- Effectively, yes. The download is a
.cubeLUT, 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 Fuji Astia 100F LUT free?
- Yes. Every rendering downloads as a
.cubefile with no account, no email and no watermark, and the browser tool exports at full resolution for free as well.
