The presets are tuned for RAW files from Canon, Sony, Nikon, Fujifilm, and most modern mirrorless cameras. A free starter pack contains three presets, one each for Moody, Travel, and Portrait. One-time paid options range from ₹149, paid once for Starter Pack to ₹899, paid once for Ultimate Collection. Packs include installation guidance and lifetime access, with future collection updates at no extra cost. Downloads arrive through a Google Drive link after payment confirmation; the FAQ says sales are final because these are digital goods.

Mextures offers photo-editing textures, overlays, film presets, and apps for creating film-like effects. Its iOS editor supports unlimited layers that can be moved, hidden, rotated, and adjusted for opacity. The product page lists more than 200 stackable textures, including grain, dust, light leaks, and color gradients, along with 30 film presets and more than 300 Formulas. Formula Manager lets users import Formulas from others and export their own to share. Console is a free Photoshop plugin in beta; it works with Photoshop CC 2016–2023 on Windows 10 or newer and macOS 11 or newer. The maker warns that the current Console version crashes with the latest Photoshop and macOS Sonoma. Film Presets are compatible with Console, Lightroom CC 2021/2022, Final Cut Pro, and Adobe Premiere, with separate software-specific versions required for separate purchases. They are not conversion LUTs, so RAW or LOG footage needs to be normalized first. Listed options include the iOS app at 1.99 USD once and the X-Film Overlay Pack at $10 a month.
