Hi members,
Just curious and doing some research for an upcoming podcast.
1 - Do you use the custom functions on your camera?
2 - If so what are your faves?
(Please name your camera make and model in the reply)
many thx!

Hi Marko,
Love custom functions, one of the best features ever...
I have tweaked my menu a few times but currently it is:
Mirror Lockup
Flash Control
Format
AEB
High ISO speed noise reduction
Long exp. noise reduction
Canon 450D
I'm confused...do you mean the custom/my setting feature or just camera features we use most often?
Yea what she said........Quote:

I'm talking about delving into the camera's menu settings and customizing them for yourself.
Noise reduction on long exposures and mirror lockup are good examples here. In many cameras they are set to "OFF". You need to customize the menu to even use them.
Autofucus and how it operates in YOUR particular camera is another good example. You can tell the camera which buttons or dials control autofocus and how it is controlled. If you never go into the menu settings, then you are always shooting in default mode.
Hope that's clearer - Thx! - Marko
Ok, so if I get this now you want to know how we take esoteric functions on the camera and utilize them in certain ways or under certain conditions. Using your AF mode example, I have turned off some of my sensors for greater specificity...like that?
I've activated back button auto focus, instead of focusing with the shutter button on my canon 450D, which is working out really well for me now I've got used to it.
precisely. :)Quote:
