Xpro Teal
About this recipe
Xpro Teal is a free Ricoh GR recipe by Ritchie Roesch, based on the Cross Processing image control. It works with the GR III, GR IIIx, GR IV, and GR IV HDF. Enter the settings below on the camera; no file is needed.
Cross Processing aimed at teal: the Blue color tone with contrast collapsed to -4 everywhere for a flat, cyan-washed scan. Cooler and calmer than cross-processing has any right to be. Published with full settings in the Street Collection on ricohrecipes.com; hosted here with credit and a link to the collection. His page prints the Cross Processing color tone as "Blue" - kept verbatim.
