Using the scene files, data for specific shooting conditions are stored in memory of this unit, and stored data can be retrieved.

Up to 20 scene files can be registered, and scene files can be stored in a Memory Stick. A scene file stored in a Memory Stick can be copied to other DXC-D50/ D50P/D50WS/D50WSP cameras to easily share the same setup among several cameras.

For details, see “Storing and Retrieving a Scene File” on page 70, and “Storing to and Retrieving from a Memory Stick” on page 71.
