Make defaults specific to camera serial number . Turn on this checkbox if you have
more than one of a particular camera model; for instance, if you carry two bodies of the
same model with different lenses, or if both you and your spouse have the same camera

You don't have to create default settings to save the changes you make to a particular photo.
If you just want to save the settings for the photo or group of photos you're working on right
