Comparison of Noble, Refined and Kindred film presets

It’s always difficult to decide what presets to buy and which of them would fit your unique style well. There are so many film presets and profiles these days, the buying process really turns into something overwhelmingly annoying.

And, what is more interesting, hardly anyone compares those presets and profiles online.

Well, here at the Ginger Lab we not only take care of all your photo editing, cropping and culling needs – we also want to make everyone’s lives easier. So we’ve come up with a big test of film emulating presets and profiles.

This time let’s have a look at how Noble presets, Refined presets, Kindred Essential and Kindred Technical presets compare to each other. Hope you’ll find this useful! Let us know in the comments below what you think and what other tests we can run for you.
