About AlphaLook: Sony Film Recipes
AlphaLook is a curated library of Creative Look film recipes for Sony Alpha cameras. Pick a recipe, plug your iPhone or iPad into your camera with a USB cable, and AlphaLook writes the whole look into the body, then reads every value back to confirm it landed. It's for stills photographers on the a7 IV, a7R V, a7C II, a6700, ZV-E1, a7S III, a1 and a7CR who want finished, film-style color straight out of camera (SOOC) in the JPEG, instead of editing at home. No laptop. No memory card. No scrolling through eight adjustments in a nested menu while the light goes. RECIPES YOU CAN TRUST • Every recipe is published, shot and tested on a body by one editor. Nothing is user-submitted. • Each recipe is a complete color: Creative Look preset, all eight tone parameters, white balance with Kelvin and the A/B–G/M shift, and D-Range Optimizer. • Real sample photos, shooting notes, and recommended exposure compensation and ISO range for each recipe, plus a suggested lens. • Parameters are shown in the same order as your camera menu: Contrast, Highlights, Shadows, Fade, Saturation, Sharpness, Sharpness Range, Clarity. SEND TO CAMERA OVER USB • Connected Camera Check compares the recipe with your camera, read-only, before anything is written. • Only the settings that differ are changed. Every value is then read back from the body to verify. • Undo Apply and Camera Restore Points save your previous look before every write. • Works over a standard USB-C data cable, with a guided first-time setup. BUILT AROUND YOUR GEAR • Pick your Sony bodies and lenses once. The library shows only recipes that run on your camera. • An illustrated, step-by-step apply guide for your body explains how to enter any recipe by hand, in the camera's own menu wording. YOUR LOOKS, YOUR SLOTS • Save Current Camera Look reads the active look from your camera so you can name it, keep it and re-apply it. • My Look Bank mirrors the camera's six Custom Look slots. Fill them from recipes or saved looks and send them all over USB. • Share looks as .alphalook files and banks as .alphabank packs. • Turn any recipe into an Instagram-portrait share card in three layouts: Specimen, Full-bleed or Contact sheet. FIND THE RIGHT LOOK FAST • Pro filters narrow the library by weather, scene and mood, matched to your gear. Try Golden Hour, Street, Retro. • Save favorites and collections with Sign in with Apple. • The library is cached for offline use in the field. The editorial, photo-first design works in light and dark mode. GOOD TO KNOW Creative Look recipes affect JPEG/HEIF, not RAW.
