I would love to have a standard or custom setup be used as an automatic fallback after my camera is idle for a while.
Eg. I hate shooting F2.8 ISO6400 on a morning following a late night, or gets badly exposed pics because of an unfinished bracketing mode after 3 minutes...
Ie. think of it as a "temporary setting" timer, that sets the camera back to something more usual after it is idle for a while. Probably speed, ISO, and may be exposure shift if it really needs to be simple. On the opposite it would be multiple user-configurable timers that each fall back on different configurations (would be hell to configure though), eg. one short-lived for HDR, one long-lived for ISO and speed.
Cheers - amazing work that fixed most of my needs already :)
good idea.
although i would make it "per-session" as i sometimes shoot 12800 to test smth
and a hour later i want to make "snapshot" photos in P and forget to turn ISO down again.
after power-off -> revert to some default settings.
So true, every camera owner I know of stumbled upon it!
The issue with me is that I do not switch my camera off that frequently, so the "end of session" would happen rarely. I cannot think better than an idle-based timer may be the only solution to this... May be a huge blinking something somewhere to warn me I am running an unusual setup, but this is probably quite intrusive.

My pull request already does this: it loads c-1 at startup if enabled
check it since i suppose it's really a dirty part of code but it worked :D
