Example of stored characters
●Setting PROGRAM AE to LOCK always engages the Auto Date Record mode, and disables all other modes.
●In the Auto Date Record mode, if the date changes while you’re shooting, the date indication is recorded for about 5 seconds from that point. It is not recorded during any other recordings made on that day.
