[QUOTE="nickt, post: 604397, member: 4923"] As typed, that will not work. Settings were saved to old card, not the new card. Read on for explanation.... I don't have the DF, but they are all similar. Your settings are all stored in camera as the others said. Just put the new card in, format it and go. Don't worry about transferring pictures, that's just wrong in my book. (but you probably could do it if you really needed to) The 'save settings' is for if you have two DF cameras and want the settings identical between the two cameras. You would save settings to current sd card, remove that card and move it to an identical camera. On that 2nd camera, you load settings. Then both cameras will have identical settings. That's one way how 'save settings' is used. Or you can use it as a backup. Save your settings to the card, then get wild and totally change all your camera settings and try new settings. Hate it? Reload the old settings back that you saved. I keep and old 32MB card in my bag with my saved settings just in case I have a problem and need to do a full camera reset. I can get back to all my customization easily. Keep in mind if you use it as a backup like this, use a separate card. The backup file will go away if you format the card. Most of us format the card every time we off upload pictures to the computer. [/QUOTE]
