Setting the clock in the camera
The camera’s internal clock keeps track of the date and time you capture each
image. This information is useful, and in some circumstances important, so
take time now to set the clock.
The camera must be connected to your Macintosh. (For instructions, see
“Connecting the Camera to Your Macintosh,” earlier in this chapter.) If you
want to check the date and time on the Macintosh before you set the camera,
use the General Controls panel.
1 If necessary, turn on the camera by sliding open the lens cover.
2 On your Macintosh, open the QuickTake Image Access control panel.
3 In the box that appears, click the “Set the camera’s clock” checkbox, then click Connect
to Camera.
IMPORTANT
If the batteries in your QuickTake camera go dead or you remove
them and don’t replace them immediately, the camera’s clock stops. To
guarantee that the clock in the camera matches the clock on your Macintosh,
you must connect the camera to the computer and repeat the procedure
described here.
