Positive color films
Color-positive or slide film is transparent and its colors and contrasts are adapted for projection. The concept was developed from Kodachrome, which first appeared on the market in 1936. Slide film was greatly appreciated both by the general public who made use of it for “slideshow evenings,” and by professional photographers who published their photos in books and magazines.
Negative color films
Color-negative films, whose colors are masked by their orange-brown film support, must be printed on photo paper in order to view the captured scenes with the right colors. Before the advent of digital cameras, this film enjoyed the largest market share among the general public, who used it for family photos, vacations, and informal events. There were, of course, other varieties used by professionals, most commonly for studio portraits and wedding photography.
Black and white films
Black and white film has always been considered by the majority of photographers as the quintessential photo art medium, and the relative ease of chemical development of these films means that it has remained attractive for amateurs. One can distinguish between the traditional films, with their large and somewhat irregular grains, and those of the 1990s, whose grains were smaller and more geometrical (the well-known T-grains, stands for tabular grains). There are also more exotic films, such as infrared films and chromogenic color films, characterized by ultra-fine grains and smooth image structures

For a golden, romantic effect, Emo enhances contrasting colors. Select Infrared to bring a strongly contrasting look to your black & white portraits.
Filters
Filters for black and white, red, orange, yellow, blue, and green: in practice, as with gray tones for black and white, color-specific filters will selectively enhance certain colors and weaken others, leading to color-based changes in contrast for a given set of original colors in a scene, instead of relying on shades of gray.
Cross-processing
A technique in contemporary fashion or creative photography that uses a chemical treatment to reverse colors, either by creating negative film effects on positive film or by creating positive film effects on negative film. DxO FilmPack includes these two simulations. The images obtained by these methods are high in contrast and with a dominant color cast.
Toning
The technique of toning involves applying chemical products to images printed on silver-halide paper to produce a particular global hue (for example, sepia tones). Naturally, the effects are most pronounced when applied to black and white originals, with or without color filtering.
Creative vignetting
DxO FilmPack lets you shade the borders of your images to create a particular atmosphere or to draw attention to the center of your image. Thanks to DxO FilmPack, vignetting effects become a real asset in bringing an even greater dimension of originality to your images. Adjust your vignetting effects with the help of several intuitive cursor controls.
