This slightly desaturates almost every color, drops exposure slightly, raises mids to compensate, and adds another point of amber. CLASSIC CHROME is the color analog to monochrome film. Tonality (contrast) is the key. It’s the opposite of Velvia — taking color out and focusing on the tonality or contrast to make the picture. In fujifilm’s description the shadows are hard, but towards the highlights contrast gets softer. I think this is what pushing the mids accomplishes.
