save vivid colors as permanent setting

[fxhofmann]

First of all sorry if this appears twice, tried to send the question yesterday but can't see it in the forum, so here it is once again.
Does anyone know how to set the color settings to vivid permanently? My A700 always reverts to standard when I switch it off. Since I switch it off frequently and always forget to change to vivid, the only way I found is to use raw format and to convert later.
thanks

You are probably using the "AUTO" setting which by default will return to factory setting each time you switch off the camera. Using RAW is a right choice IMHO, also do use either P, A, S or M. Personally I almost use A setting (75-80%) and the rest in the M setting. I don't remember using the S setting ever. As for P mode, just used it when testing the camera. In those 4 modes, whichever mode or parameters you set will remain as long as you don't change them. You could even preset and let the camera memorize on one the MR settings. Hope I answered your question.
