Setting the Time and Date

The COOLPIX 100 records the year, month, day, hour and minute of exposure in the file information header of every image taken. The camera's internal clock-calendar can be adjusted from the control panel display, which can be set to show either the date or the time. To change the date/time display, turn the camera on while pressing the QUALITY button. Once the camera has finished its initial check, the date/time and battery level will be displayed. Press the QUALITY button until the date/time display stops flashing. The style of the date/time display can then be changed by pressing the MODE button.
