Hello everyone! I'm really excited about finding this community because I love shooting film, but due to the cost, wait time, and other factors, shooting film is not always the case. So, I'm happy to find something that will help my photos look the way that I want them to. I was envious of Fuji shooters because they had this and we as Sony users didn't, until now. Anyway, I am in the process of setting up my camera with the Kodak Ultramax profile and I seem to have everything set correctly. I'm struggling with the White Balance Custom setting. Under WB custom 1, I can change the A-B and G-M, but I cannot adjust the Kelvins. Maybe I don't know how to get to it on the menu or it cannot be done. Please let me know if there is a comprehensive tutorial on how to update picture profiles and white balance settings on Sony cameras or if there is a section in the video where Veresdenialex has mentioned this! It would be much appreciated! I'm excited to get out there and start shooting. Thanks in advance!

ah thanks for that clarification! Looks like I'll have to set up to shoot RAW + Jpeg! I was only shooting RAW.
Hope you can see the video i posted to get a clear idea
You can see how in the color temp/filter you can set both the kelvin and the color filter as you wish. This is where is usually play arpund with color. The other 3 custom white balances are saved presets generated with the help of the last option on the list, called 'white balance custom setup'. This is a tool that will generate a custom Kelvin value that is closest to the correct white point and it's used in combination with a white or grey card to get accurate results, or to get kelvin values that are bellow 2500 or above 9900 K. I have a video on this subject called Cinestill 800T Recipe Film Emulation, go check it out. You can also use these 3 custom presets to save some of your favourite or most used temperature, for situations where you don't have time to dial in the settings, let's say a wedding. You can set custom white balances for morning, daytime and nightime to make it faster to access. This is the basics of it, hope it helps! Have fun shooting!
