So a short bit of additional information here, just bought and tortured the X-S10!

The recipes do still exist, but operate a little differently than I would have expected. And yes you can custom name the settings

I was able to recreate my custom black and white presets exactly, however I could not figure out why the aperture ring was not working.

I could not find a menu option to prioritise aperture over shutterspeed, so I made a workaround:

• Move the dial to aperture priority

• From here save the settings as a custom setting to each placeholder Custom 1, Custom 2, etc

• Customize each setting and save as required

Coming from an X-T10 I notice a few changes

- Highlights and Shadows are now a combined "curve" setting - but can be set the same way

- Noise reduction is missing and his now "High ISO NR"

- There is also now the added setting of "Clarity" that seems to enhance micro-contrast and especially skin smoothing/detail. It does feel like this is a way of simulating a lower aperture when lowered, could be interesting for kit lens optimization

Hope this helps someone.
