Custom Settings

[dlevek@comcast.net]

When and how are costume settings invoked on the X-T1?  I'll primarily shoot in Manuel mode, but also use apeture priority or shutter priority, setting ISO usually at 200.  Doing so, I have no idea what is being used for dynamic range, film simulation, white balance, color setting, sharpness, highlight tones, shadow tones, etc.  How do I know when a custom setting is being used and when my choice of dial settings are taking precedence over everything else?  Confused...  Dave

actually all these settings are not " custom “ or not because you use automatic exposure with aperture priority, you can change them all, but you simply leave the default ones. You can chose all of the above yourself! The camera is NOT taking over, you have simply never bothered to change the factory settings.

 

 

Most will affect only the jpeg though and my hunch is that that all you are using.

 

As for what these setting mean for you (or not)...If you are mentioning this much in one breath it means that you need a photography course or at least a book to understand the working of each and every of these. You are practically mentioning the workings of the whole of the camera!
