Do you know the names of each Sony a6500 picture profile? These are the official names and how they look. ► All gear linked below*.
The a6500 has 9 picture profiles (PP1-PP9). It's not obvious what each of these is named by Sony. I found some videos and info online but nothing that was a definite confirmation of each profile's factory default name. Here they are, as listed by Sony:
PP1: "Movie"
PP2: "Still"
PP3: "Natural"
PP4: "Faithful"
PP5: "Cine1"
PP6: "Cine2"
PP7: "S-Log2"
PP8: "S-Log3" [S-Gamut3.Cine]
PP9: "S-Log3" [S-Gamut3]
This seems like it should be obvious but it does not list these in the camera itself or in the manual that comes with the camera.
Only when I scanned the QR code on the front of the included users manual, did I find each picture profile listed with additional details.
You can see these for yourself via:
helpguide.sony.net/ilc/1640/v1/en/contents/TP0001211745.html
These are also the same picture profiles for the Sony a6300.
