Picture Profiles (PP) provide hardware-level control over the camera's gamma curve, black pedestal, knee compression, and 6-axis color depth matrix before video compression is applied.
Default standard video profile with moderate contrast and saturated colors.
Color rendition modeled after camera still photography JPEGs.
Natural skin tone color science utilizing the ITU709 standard matrix.
Calibrated broadcast color fidelity matching standard ITU-R BT.709.
Gentle cinema gamma curve with softened shadow-to-highlight transition.
Similar to Cine1, with output limited to 100% video signal.
Legacy log curve optimized for 8-bit cameras like original A7S and A7R II.
S-Log3 with S-Gamut3.Cine; recording bit depth and usable dynamic range depend on the camera.
S-Log3 paired with ultra-wide archival S-Gamut3 for maximum color gamut.
Hybrid Log Gamma for direct high dynamic range display without grading.
S-Cinetone combines a gamma curve and color rendition intended for a quick video workflow.

Cinema film emulation modeled after Kodak Vision3 500T/250D motion picture film stock. Soft highlights, rich filmic shadow roll-off, and subtle teal/orange color depth matrix.
Warm vintage aesthetic inspired by 1970s Technicolor prints. Cine4 gamma expands dynamic range in the highlights, paired with amber-skewed color depth and softened digital detail.
Natural cinema skin tones straight out of camera without post-processing. Leverages Sony's Venice-derived S-Cinetone color science with gentle saturation lift and organic texture.
Dramatic black-and-white picture profile inspired by classic film noir cinema. Crushed blacks, specular highlights, and deep midtone shadows.
Emulation of Fuji Eterna motion picture stock. Muted contrast, lifted blacks, soft pastel greens and skin tones suited for cinematic indie films.
Designed for documentary and street photography to mimic the microcontrast, saturated primaries, and organic reds of Leica M digital rangefinders.
Emulates the characteristic gentle highlight roll-off and warm highlight bias of the Arri Alexa Rec.709 look on Sony sensors.
Warm golden skin tones, flattering highlight glow, and rich midtones inspired by Kodak Portra 400 negative film for natural light portraiture.
Tailored for nighttime cityscapes, neon signs, and moody low-light portraits. Boosted red depth and cyan skew emulate CineStill 800T tungsten film halation.
Standard high-end 10-bit cinema capture setting for maximum 15-stop dynamic range and pristine highlight retention in Sony FX and modern Alpha bodies.
Hybrid Log Gamma 3 with wide BT.2020 color gamut for direct playback on HDR monitors and YouTube without requiring heavy color grading.
Recreates the iconic National Geographic look of Kodachrome 64: dense shadows, punchy primary red and yellow saturation, and crisp slide-film contrast.
