PL8 definitely an improvement

I use FilmPack every week for my colour work. I do fantastic work with FilmPack. There are long posts here where I discuss the nuances of different Color Renderings with examples. But FilmPack BW is incredibly depressing stuff. I’m using Silver EFX from Nik v3, I’m not sure if DxO have removed the original BW film treatments in Silver EFX to the anodyne ones in FilmPack.

I will give you this – you certainly feel more strongly about this issue than I do.

For what it’s worth, I don’t particularly like any of the versions above.
