This is because the code is loading the last used values (previous defaults) from EEPROM. You have to use Kevin's menu system to modify the value or alternatively (since you changed the default values) reset the configuration to default.
Yep. If the software finds a valid camera and/or tracking configuration in EEPROM it will use that information for configuration. To save values from the header file into EEPROM select load default values from the menu and then hit the save changes key. You can see where the software gets the configuration data by enabling debug messages in camera.h.
