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.
