A GelForm is a thoughtfully crafted balance of temperature and contrast—bundling them into distinct looks that are both intuitive and reliable. Whether you prefer a clean, true-to-film rendering, a punchy high-contrast feel, or something with a bit more warmth or coolness, there’s a GelForm that fits your style.

We’ve created a set of unique formulas (GelForms) that unlock endless possibilities—making your photos more personal and distinctive. These are not presets, but in-scanner adjustments to get the best from your film.

HOW IT WORKS

Choose the GelForm that best fits your style and application – we apply carefully tuned formulas based on contrast and temperature. For specialty GelForms, we can also preserve details like sprockets or the rebate edge.

Each formula is unique and will render a different result. Explore the possibilities of your images by experimenting with each GelForm. (Note: Results may vary from sample images, and depend on the film stock chosen, exposure settings while shooting, and film storage).

SCANNER INFO

Each GelForm is made possible by professional film scanners that evoke different styles. To understand which GelForm relates to each scanner, refer to the table below.

  • pull film-1024x1024 PULLING FILM
    Developing film for a shorter time, which can help recover some detail in pictures that turned out too bright. However, this technique is less common for color negative film and may not always be necessary.
  • box-speed-1024x1024 NORMAL DEVELOPING
    Developing film for longer to brighten up pictures that turned out too dark. This can help bring out more details and make colors pop, but it can also make the picture a little grainy.
