CONNECTING TO A COMPUTER
Read this section carefully before connecting the camera to a computer. Details on using and installing the DiMAGE Image Viewer Utility software are found in the sup- plied software manual. The DiMAGE manuals do not cover the basic operation of com- puters or their operating systems; please refer to the manual supplied with your com- puter.
SETTING THE DATE FORMAT
The date format that is displayed or imprinted can be changed: YYYY/MM/DD (year, month, day), MM/DD/YYYY (month, day, year), DD/MM/YYYY (day, month, year). Simply select the format and enter it by pressing the center of the controller; the new format will be displayed on the menu.

Camera images can be displayed on a television (p. 112). The video output can be changed between NTSC and PAL. North America uses the NTSC standard and Europe uses the PAL standard. Check which standard is used in your region to play back images on your television set.
