+With few exceptions, these settings can also be changed from Canon menus or controls. Sometimes, ML lets you specify values outside the normal range allowed by Canon's user interface (for example: Kelvin white balance, AFMA values, intermediate ISO/shutter/aperture values).
 A few settings are changed temporarily during certain operations (for example, autofocus for bracketed shots), but these settings are saved by Canon firmware in NVRAM. If you take the battery out in the middle of the operation (for example, in the middle of taking a picture), ML won't be able to restore these settings back to your initial values, and you'll have to change them back from Canon menus.
