Sony User LUTs: Monitoring and Recording
Check your camera and firmware
Creative Look, Picture Profile and User LUT import are separate features. The α7 IV supports Creative Look and Picture Profile; do not infer User LUT import from those menus. Check the Help Guide for your exact model and firmware before preparing a LUT.
Monitoring and recording differ
A monitoring LUT can change the displayed image while log footage remains available for grading. Other recording modes can apply a look to the recorded image. Check each output and recording setting separately rather than assuming a display LUT is baked into the clip.
The α7C II Help Guide documents PPLUT1–PPLUT4 for recording movies with a user LUT applied. Those slot names and behavior should not be generalized to every Sony camera.
File preparation
Follow the body’s documented grid size, file size, filename and memory-card folder requirements. Resampling a .cube file does not establish camera compatibility or the correct input color space.
