I might be an oddity but I never ever used those banks. Worst : If I were at Nikon, I would erase those banks. I have quite a lot of friends in photography and I never seen them using any kind of custom settings. Worst II : I use my camera almost always as she come out of the box. This can be cool sometime. I discovered how the d9 function in the D700 menu can be useful with long lenses... four darn years after having bought the cam (my only menu settings are about raw).Starting with the D2X in 2005, I have tried to figure out how to best use the shooting and custom settings banks A/B/C/D. Let's just say I'm still trying to figure it out.
Anyone like to share how they use those banks? Different scenarios? Multiple users? Weekdays?

Ha ha... and I thought I was the only one? I use my Nikon cameras more or less the same way I used the OM-1, except I've switched to aperture priority. Now I have to figure out what d9 is :loco:I might be an oddity but I never ever used those banks. Worst : If I were at Nikon, I would erase those banks.

Does it stopped me shooting almost everything during those years ? never
Those banks are only useful, IMHO, for very very quick changes in professional situation such as weeding or dynamic reportage (outdoor/indoor...).
Photographers can survive without it, easy.
Nice list, partly because it gives the full overview at one glans, or at least with less scrolling than what is required at the back of the camera, and partly because the sheer size of it explains why I have never bothered to even try.
