B. Initial camera setup
B6. Saving your preferred camera settings
If you have made any changes to the user menu, you can
save those changes to an SD or Card or Memory Stick in
the Utility card slot by going to
(MENU: Project – User
File)
. This may be useful should you wish to copy your
preferred user menu layout to another camera. User Files
also save the settings of the functions included within
the user menu, this allows you to use user files to save
settings such as scan mode or frame rate provided those
menu items are included in the user menu.
You can also use “All Files” to save not only the User
Menu settings but also a snapshot of the camera’s setup
including any other menu settings such as configuration
of the assignable dial, operating mode and scan mode
etc. All Files are very useful for switching quickly between
different frame rates and scan modes by saving an All File
for each preferred setup or to copy your preferred camera
settings from on camera to another. Be aware however
that “All Files” overwrite the cameras white balance
settings each time one is loaded. It may be preferable to
use a user file as an alternative to an All File to save your
preferred settings as User Files can be set not to overwrite
white balance settings.
