| Grainy B/W | Makes the image grainy and black and white. By adjusting the contrast, you can change the black-and-white effect. |
| Gives the image a soft look. By adjusting the blur, you can change the degree of softness. | |
| Gives the effect of a fish-eye lens. The image will have a barrel-type distortion. | |
| Art bold effect | Makes the photo look like an oil painting and the subject look three dimensional. You can adjust the contrast and saturation. Note that the sky, white walls, and similar subjects may not be rendered with a smooth gradation and may look irregular or have significant noise. |
| Water painting effect | Makes the photo look like a watercolor painting with soft colors. You can adjust the color density. Note that night scenes or dark scenes may not be rendered with a smooth gradation and may look irregular or have significant noise. |
| Toy camera effect | Gives a color cast typical of toy cameras and darkens the image’s four corners. By adjusting the color tone, you can change the color cast. |
| Miniature effect | Creates a diorama effect. You can change where the image is to look sharp. |
While looking at the Live View screen, you can shoot while applying a filter effect.
IMPORTANT
When you shoot with a Creative filter applied, only images applied with a Creative filter will be saved. If you also want to save the image without a Creative filter, shoot the image without the Creative filter and apply the Creative filter afterward, then save it as a separate image.

When selecting Fish-eye effect:
Depending on the level of the Fish-eye filter effect, the amount trimmed along the image periphery will change. Also, since this filter effect magnifies the image center, the apparent resolution at the center may degrade depending on the number of recorded pixels. Set the filter effect while checking the resulting image. The AF method will either be FlexiZone - Single (fixed at center) or Quick mode.
