About this recipe

Panchromatic 400 +Red is a free Ricoh GR recipe by Ritchie Roesch, based on the Hard Monotone image control. It works with the GR IV, GR IV HDF, and GR IV Monochrome. Enter the settings below on the camera; no file is needed.

Hard Monotone tuned like panchromatic 400 film shot through a red filter: a warm 7000K reference darkens skies in B&W, shadows lift +4 so street detail survives, and grain finishes the print.
