Will these Sony Creative Look recipes affect my RAW files?

No. Your RAW files remain untouched and 'clean,' while your JPEGs are instantly stylized directly in-camera.

Which Sony cameras are compatible with these recipes?

These are compatible with any modern Sony camera supporting the 'Creative Look' system, such as the A7 IV, A7RV, FX30, A6700, and ZV-E1. You can verify compatibility by checking your camera menu for 'Creative Look' under Shooting settings.

Can I customize the recipes after applying them?

Yes! These are base recipes. You can further tweak contrast, saturation, and sharpness directly in your camera’s Creative Look menu to match your personal style.

Are these the same as Picture Profiles or Lightroom Presets?

No. These are specific Creative Look in-camera settings. They are NOT Picture Profile settings, and they are NOT Lightroom or Capture One Presets.

Is there an alternative if I want more control than Creative Looks?

Yes. If you want deeper control over gamma curves, color response, and tonal shaping, Picture Profile film simulations offer more flexibility, especially for video work.

Rating is 5.0 out of five stars based on 1 review

39 custom Sony Creative Look recipes that emulate the look of classic film stocks, straight out of camera. Each look is carefully rebuilt from my full library of 90+ Picture Profile film simulations, adapted specifically for Sony’s Creative Look system.

I’ve built them with simplicity in mind. The result is a collection of Sony Creative Look recipes that are easy to use, fast to apply, and made for those of you who want film-like footage without post-processing.

NOTE: These are Creative Look in-camera settings! NOT Picture Profile settings, and NOT Lightroom or Capture One Presets.
