I got myself the Sony Alpha 7CII because I read about the film simulations and that it'll be possible on the new models. Thanks a lot for your great work and recipes, looks really awesome! I still have a question about the Kelvin and White Balance adjustment: can I save those adjustments with the Picture Profile (e.g. PP1) or do I need to take those adjustments every time when changing the profile? Also can I rename those profiles on the camera (e.g. PP1> Kodak Gold) ? I didn't find information about this anywhere.

Thanks for your helpful answer. I will check the videos out. Maybe the rename feature will come with the next update or newer cameras. Would have been great.
Heihei!
Exactly like Fujifilm, you cannot set a unique Kelvin temperature to each individual film simulation or picture profile slot, so for example, when scrolling between them, each to have a separate temperature value assigned. When going through the available film simulations / picture profiles, all will have the exact same temperature settings.
However, like Fujifilm, you can save multiple film simulations separately with custom temperature settings and switch between them in just seconds, with the help of the Memory Recall Mode. Unfortunately, you cannot rename picture profile slots, and I agree that would be a great feature.
I have a playlist showcasing the basic workflow when using Sony film simulations, you can check it out here:
