Mode Lock ON/OFF

When enabled, this function preserves the camera mode functions set when the camera power is turned OFF. As a result, the same mode settings are restored when the power is next turned ON. When this function is disabled, any mode functions previously set will be returned to their default values when the power is turned OFF and then turned ON again.
