Juan Melara Print Film Emulation LUTs review
A focused Resolve collection for print-film looks, with free LUTs and paid PowerGrades.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Juan Melara Print Film Emulation LUTs is a focused collection for colorists and filmmakers who want print-film characteristics in digital grading workflows. It combines free LUTs for Fujifilm 3510, Kodak 2383, and Kodak 2393 with paid DaVinci Resolve PowerGrades for Kodak and Fujifilm print stocks. The collection is aimed at Resolve users working with digital footage, including supported ARRI, Fujifilm, Canon, Sony, Blackmagic, Red, Panasonic, and DJI cameras through the listed workflows.
Pricing is split between free LUT downloads and paid one-time products. Individual Kodak and Fujifilm YRGB PowerGrades cost $29.99 each, while the All PFE YRGB PowerGrades Bundle costs $89.99. The Kodak 250D + PFE YRGB PowerGrade costs $39.99 and combines Kodak 250D negative-film emulation with one print-film emulation. The paid offerings extend beyond a basic LUT: the collection includes Kodak 5207 250D and Kodak 5219 500T negative-film emulations, along with halation, grain, gate-weave emulation, and in-camera monitoring LUTs.
DaVinci Resolve is the decisive platform fit. The products include YRGB, Resolve Color Managed, and DaVinci Wide Gamut PowerGrades, with SDR and HDR grading support for RCM PowerGrades. Installation and usage instruction videos are also included. That makes the collection a strong choice for Resolve-based print-film work, especially when control over film-emulation elements matters. Editors using another grading application should choose a library with broader host-software integration, while Resolve users seeking a narrow, film-focused toolkit have a clear match.
