ALL file
In the ALL file, the setting data of all of the menus are

of the camcorder that you already set by loading the data
from the “Memory Stick”.
Items included in the ALL file are marked with an “A” in
the “File” column on the menu list.
Scene file
In the scene file, the setting values of event items adjusted
to shoot a particular scene are saved. You can save up to
five scene files in the camcorder memory and up to 100
scene files in a “Memory Stick”. For example, first adjust
the settings to shoot a particular scene at the rehearsal and
then save them as a scene file. Then load this file before the
actual shooting so that you can quickly recreate setup
conditions that are the same as those in rehearsal.
Items included in the scene file are marked with an “Sc”
in the “File” column on the menu list.
Lens file
In the lens file, the setting data used to compensate for the
characteristics of lenses, such as flare, white shading,!and
auto iris gain, is saved. You can save up to 32 lens files in
the camcorder memory and up to 100 lens files in a
“Memory Stick”.
Items included in the lens file are marked with an “L” in
