[QUOTE="sharp shooter, post: 667503, member: 37965"] I have a D500 and I find the Memory Banks to be a disaster. They do not remember your basic settings - they change as you modify your settings throughout the day. The D500 is such a great camera, but I find myself very limited as there are so many settings to remember and change from one situation to another, so I find myself setting it up for Birds, and using my old D7100 with its U1, U2 for landscapes etc. Give me back the U1, U2 settings please. Better still, get a REAL set of user settings! How about ... Settings> User Settings>Choose from 0 to 99 So we would simply set up our camera to suit ourselves, and select 'save user settings' and press OK, then we are given the option of naming them on the touch screen. I would set the Fn2 button to select 'User Settings'. Having 100 user settings would be marvelous! As it stands, changing from my 'birds in flight' to ... say ... 'night sky' to 'small JPEG snaps' throughout the day is a pain. Being a 'bird' photographer, I would probably have a dozen or so 'bird' settings, ranging from birds in flight to perched birds, fast birds, slow birds, white birds etc. I would then have Landscape, L'scape on tripod, Night Sky, small jpeg, --- the list goes on! I imagine 'professionals' might feel more secure turning up to a wedding with User 1 'Wedding' selected, than fiddling about resetting the camera from the weekend landcape outing. Please Nikon ... give me 100 user settings. [/QUOTE]
