Saving and Loading Camera Settings
The camera’s shooting modes, menus, Custom Functions, and other camera settings can be saved to the card as a camera settings file.
When this file is loaded by the camera, the saved camera settings will be applied.
Convenient when you want to load the camera settings from a different EOS-1D X body and set the camera in the same way. Or you can save and load different camera settings for different shooting situations
 | 1 Select [Save/load cam settings on card]. 2 Select [Save to card]. 3 Select [Start]. Turn the < > dial to select [Start], then press < >. The camera settings will be saved to the card, and the screen in step 2 will reappear. If you select [Change file name], you can change the file name (8 characters) and save the file.
For the procedure, see “Changing the File Name”. The number of characters that can be entered will be different, but the procedure for entering the file name is the same |
