MEMORY - STORING CAMERA SETTINGS

Three sets of camera settings can be saved. This feature saves time under frequently repeating conditions by eliminating the need to set camera functions. Except for the AF/AEL button, subject programs, data imprinting, and instant playback settings, all recording-mode camera settings will be saved including the position of the Flex Focus Point, the custom white balance setting and changes made with the function dial and digital effects control. Although the the bracketing drive mode setting can be saved, the type of bracket, exposure, contrast, or color saturation must be set again with the digital effects controller.

Camera settings are saved with the memory function in the custom 1 section of the recording-mode menu (p. 80). Initially, each memory location contains the camera’s original settings.
