With Creative Look you can now skip the hassle of editing your photos and videos, and have them ready to post in an instant. Here's a quick introduction to how Creative Look changes the mood of your stills and videos and a 3-step guide on how you can customise these presets to suit your style.
What is Creative Look?
Creative Look is a preset available within selected Sony cameras that offers 10 unique preset looks. These looks are achieved by changing a combination of settings from colour tone and contrast, to saturation, sharpness, brightness and more.
Full-Frame Sony camera benefits like accurate Eye AF tracking, smooth bokeh and a wide dynamic range, coupled with the convenience of Creative Look, unlock a whole world of creative possibilities.
