   Those are my settings in GPG.CONF:

default-preference-list S7 S1 S10 S3 S4 S2 S9 S8 H3 H8 H9 H10 H11 H2 H1 Z1 Z3 Z2 Z0
personal-cipher-preferences S7 S1 S10 S3 S4 S2 S9 S8
personal-digest-preferences H3 H8 H9 H10 H11 H2 H1
personal-compress-preferences Z1 Z3 Z2 Z0

You don't need to say "Sxx Hxx Zxx" in preference lists. You can give the whole algorithm name if you like. The Sxx Hxx Zxx form is just for backwards compatibility with a much earlier version of GPG before it understood the algorithm names.

Also note that Camellia is not yet part of OpenPGP. GPG has some support for testing as Camellia makes it through the RFC process, but it is disabled by default. If you enable it (and ignore the warning message you will get every single time you run GPG), you could use them... but there is no guarantee that those messages will be decryptable, ever. You've got a gun pointed at your foot. Be careful you don't pull the trigger.
