Understanding presets

I have been using preset #7.
I'm wondering if the presets also affect such controls as sharpness and shutter speed??
What shutter speed / edge sharpness combos are you guys shooting with at 30f?

thanks!

Sharpness -- yes. Shutter speed -- no.

The fundamental camera controls such as aperture, shutter, gain and white balance are not part of what makes up a Custom Preset (although certain Custom Presets work better if used in conjunction with particular gain, frame rate and white balance settings, as indicated in the user notes on my Custom Preset download library spreadsheet.
