Visual Supply Co., more affectionately referred to as VSCO, has built an empire around its impressive collection of film emulation presets. To date, the Oakland-based company offers seven complete collections of film presets for desktop editing software, each of which encompasses a specific collection of presets inspired by various film stocks, both new and old.
Individually, these preset packs sell for $59, which seems a fair price to pay for the amount of work that’s gone into each respective pack. The problem is, it’ll take some thought to figure out what specific pack best fits your needs as a photographer, because different packs work best depending on the style of photography they’re being used on.
To prevent buyer’s remorse, VSCO has put together a little sampler pack for newbies just getting into the game. Appropriately titled “VSCO Film Essentials,” the pack features a hand-selected collection of the most popular film emulations from each of the seven complete collections VSCO offers.
Below are the film stock emulations included in the pack, sorted by the complete package they represent:
Like VSCO’s seven other offerings, this particular pack costs $59 and works within Adobe Lightroom and Adobe Camera Raw. To purchase the VSCO Film Essentials pack, you can head on over to VSCO’s online store.

Full-frame cameras tend to be chunky beasts, but Sigma wants to prove that big imaging doesn't need a big body. Enter the Sigma FP2, the successor to its tiny, boxy fp mirrorless camera. It keeps the same modular design but packs in some serious upgrades, including a 24.5-megapixel partially stacked full-frame sensor, improved autofocus, 6K video recording, and 70GB of built-in storage. Sigma calls it the world's smallest full-frame camera, and while it might be tiny, the same cannot be said for its price tag.
Sigma FP2 brings faster shooting and 6K video
A phone thermal camera is one of those tools you don’t think you need until the first time it saves you from an expensive problem, and the Thermal Master P3 just got easier to try. For Halloween, it’s discounted with the code THERMCAM10, a 10% cut that works out to $107 off the total. It’s also fresh off a win at the 2026 Tom’s Guide AI Awards for best phone thermal camera, which is the kind of third-party nod that separates a serious tool from the cheap clip-on sensors that flood this category.
