Ilford HP5 Plus Lightroom Preset for Nikon Zf (and Friends)

Because your therapy bills weren’t high enough already.

Congratulations. You’ve stumbled upon the HP5+ preset — Ilford’s most beloved offering to anyone convinced that sadness is a valid creative vision. The real film comes with grain, contrast, and just enough melancholy to make your subjects question their life choices. This digital version? Well… it comes with sliders.

Designed for Nikon’s 24MP lineup (Zf, Z6, Z5, Zfc, and whatever other Z you panic-bought during lockdown), this preset delivers two key promises:

  • Your photos will look like they’ve been marinating in regret since 1989.

  • You’ll finally have a reason to post that blurry street shot of a bin bag and call it “commentary.”

Download it, apply it, and then tell yourself the crushed shadows are “moody.” We won’t tell anyone you just missed the exposure.

📦 What You’re Getting

This pack includes:

  • Z24 – HP5+ – Gutter Press – Perfect for photographing a lone pigeon and insisting it’s about late-stage capitalism.

  • Z24 – HP5+ – Bleak Chic – Because nothing says “I love you” like making someone look like a Bergman extra.

  • Z24 – HP5+ – Crisis Contrast – Shadows deeper than your self-esteem and whites bright enough to fry an eyeball.

All three come in one tidy .zip. Unpack, load into Lightroom, and pretend you’re the Ansel Adams of existential despair.

T‑MAX Lightroom Preset for Nikon Zf (and Friends)

Because your photos weren’t mediocre enough already.

Congratulations. You’ve found the T‑MAX preset — Kodak’s gift to anyone who thought their perfectly serviceable digital files just weren’t lifeless enough. This preset has it all: subtle grain you’ll pretend to appreciate, bland contrast that whispers “Instagram influencer in denial,” and the uncanny ability to make even your most colorful shots look like they were taken during a minor existential crisis.

Designed for Nikon’s 24MP lineup (Zf, Z6, Z5, Zfc, and whatever else you’re hoarding), this preset guarantees two things:

  1. Your mum will still pity‑like your photos.

  2. You’ll convince yourself that desaturation equals art.

Download it, apply it, and then tell yourself it looks “filmic.” Deep down you’ll know better.
