Negative Lab Pro 2.3 Tutorial - Matching Lab Scans

An in-depth tutorial going over some of the features of Negative Lab Pro v2.3.0 and how they can be used to further replicate the look of film scans you may be accustomed to from a lab. Better yet, you can use these tools to simply create whatever look you want in your film scans; whether they are inspired by lab scans or otherwise. I go over multiple film stocks and formats, and share some basic protocols in NLP as well as Lightroom which you might find useful in your own workflow.
