I like the feature of saving exposure settings, Render settings ( aspect ratio ) for each camera.
So I have a scene setup with multiply cameras which are setup for different times of
day, with different aspect ratios, I no longer have to right all the settings down
and when it comes time to render put in all the settings back in.
I realise theres manage scene states which should cater to this, but I have had trouble with it
saving exposure settings. It would be much easier if it was saved into the camera.
So all I have to do is change camera and all the settings change.

I have seen some scripts out there with a similar idea.

I wrote a script to do that. A simple CA on camera
Not finish yet.
Now it can saving Time interval, Render settings(width, height, render time, save path) to camera.
more feature adding........

If necessary, I suggest you use some pass manager.
LPM is good.

Looks like a nice script.
Does is save mr_sun info, longitude latitude ? does it save mr_photographic exposure settings ?
These are the main things I am after.

A while ago I checked out L-pass manager, it is really powerful, very similar to XSI’s pass/partition manager.

cheers
