AF100a Default Scene Files

[jtczere]

I just purchased a used AF100a and have been playing with it, trying different scene files that are loaded in the camera's menu. When I select F3 scene file from the menu, and then look at the info displayed on the LCD, I see the scene file is called "Spark". I cannot find such a scene file listed in Barry's AF100 book. I think the prior owner must have load some different scene files into the camera. My question is, what are the default factory installed scene files and how do I get them back for selection from the LCD menu. Hope this makes sese, I'm looking forward to shooting some nice stuff with he AF100. I have 2 AC 160's, but really never use scene files with them, need to learn how all this works. Any help/info would be appreciated. John C

SPARK is the name of one of the original scene files. But you can force it to reload the factory scene files, one at a time. Go to the end of the scene file menu and look for load/save/init. Choose "init" and it will initialize that particular scene file back to the factory original.

Barry:Thank you. I have been going back and forth from the AC160 scene files to the AF100a scene files trying to make sense of them. I think I'm getting to understand what is changing with the AF100. It also switches from video to film cam type with the scene file changes. Again thanks for the help.John C
