About Fuji Neopan 1600

Widely used in Japanese street photography and discontinued in 2011, which is a large part of why its rendering is sought out now.

Fuji Neopan 1600 is no longer made — what to use instead

Fuji Neopan 1600 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 5 renderings here reproduce Fuji Neopan 1600 on any photograph, free.

If you would rather shoot film, the closest options in this library are Ilford Delta 3200, Kodak T-Max 3200, Kodak Tri-X 400 — 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 Neopan 1600 still made?
No. Fuji Neopan 1600 was discontinued around 2011, which is why its look is now reproduced digitally. The 5 renderings on this page emulate it, free, with no film to buy.
Can I use Fuji Neopan 1600 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 Fuji Neopan 1600 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.
