>>4327995all presets look like shit because the people that make and sell them aren't colourists and have no idea what colourimetry is. you legit need to shoot film to get the film look because the editing you do to the image after is going to be to your taste, which has a different character than anyone else's film images. thus there is no "conversion" directly from digital to film look. once you have shot a heap of film you will know which characteristics specific to you create that look, then you can try to apply them to digital images. it's extremely difficult though because fractional changes in exposure drastically alter the pallet and tonal response on film, where as digital will reproduce colours linearly across exposure settings. e.g. grass +1 stop on film will be rendered pastel green leaning towards cyan, the identical exposure on digital will just render the grass as grass green with twice the luminance.
