You aren't shooting film. It is really that simple.

Sorry bruh but the lens maketh the shot, and using high resolution modern lenses are always going to give a different look than older designs. Go buy a first gen EF 50mm or nFD 50mm and adapt that to your camera. Or better yet just shoot film.

Let me respectfully explain to you why what you're doing is retarded."Film look" exists because film is engineered to provide you an automatic color and contrast corrected image. Digital cameras are engineered to produce images that look closer to reality. In a sense, you could think of film as an automatic jpg export preset with the caveat some stuff is not reproducible digitally due to how film physically works.So, first, "film look" is not a generic thing. Evey different film stock is made to work in certain conditions and produce certain images. So you need to pick which stock you would be working with in a certain situation, and copy it.In other words, for every shot you take, you need to think what is the purpose and mood of this image, and what type of post processing would work. You cannot just move sliders around using a recipe. And now you're doing... digital color grading. That's literally it. Just learn digital color grading. Why would you want to imitate "film lookw, that is color grading engineered to work on a completely different technology that is never gonna look the same on your current, more powerful and open technology? Nigga. Just learn color grading.It will take you much further. Now you're not just blindly imitating Instagram vibes. You're thinking about the image you want to create, and learning how to make it, with a post processing workflow that uses fully the strengths of digital cameras.Nevermind, you don't care, you just want retarded film look? Use one click presets. You're not gonna do better than this. Better yet. SHOOT FILM YOU RETARDED ZOOMER.

if you want the film look, just shoot film, or buy a fuji with the simulation thingi mostly stick to video when using digital, so here is my takethe most film like sensor ive used is alev 3, second to that is the og blackmagic. pocket cinema, the 1080 one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ol1rGyNiKyg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Js4K-4ip2BAwhen you shoot sony with moden glass and you have no idea how to grade, you are going to get the digital look.but even after all that, its all lighting, lighting is everything. you can literally shoot on iphones if the lighting is good enough https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZsJ-BHohXRIshoot in raw, fuck around and find out with the sliders in photoshop, download some film "simulation" lut packs if you can find some free ones and just have a look to see what works. make sure you protect the highlights when shooting, you need to keep that information for editing.

If you genuinely want help, you should post some examples of photos that show what you mean by "film" look

Too sharp and not enough grain. A lot of regular lenses were a bit soft and being really sharp is a pretty digital thing, so it needs a little more softness/blur to it. Get a black mist filter with 1/4 strength and try that out.

>What am I doing wrong? You're looking at it in a digital display screen rather than a live of paper like we used to do in the 90s.
