Permanently change default settings of camera parameter settings?

tapanojum

Hello, I'm wondering if it's possible to change the default parameters for all created cameras. For some reason, the Focal Length of cameras has a Max value of 5200 when the normal operating range is usually within 28-200m. This makes using the sliding scale impossible and one has to put in the length manually. I've started setting the Max value to 200 from 5200. Is it possible to save this change for all future scenes?

Not as a default for newly created cameras, unless it could be done with a script triggered when a new camera was created, but you could set up a scene with one or more modified cameras and use Edit>Preferences (Daz Studio>Preferences for a Mac) to load that on strt up and new scene (two tabs, Startup and Scene, allow you to set a file to load).

Thanks for the quick response Richard. Is it possible that the max value of 5200 was a mistake and to be adjusted in the future? It's obviously not a big deal to manually adjust this with every additional camera in a scene, It's just that the parameter slider is essentially non-functional with the default settings and feels like a bug.

You could open a Technical Suport ticket to ask that, and suggest a lower default value in future regardless https://www.daz3d.com/help/help-contact-us
