The phone also boasts of having Creator mode “powered by CineAlta.” This feature is inspired by Sony’s Master Monitor color reproduction technology, which is used in Hollywood studio productions. Sony promises what with the Xperia 1, users can “record movies with the same parameters and colour settings as the professionals.”
