GETTING READY

IMPORTANT!

Recording images without configuring the clock settings causes incorrect time information to be stored with image data. Be sure to configure the clock settings before using the camera.

A built-in backup battery retains the date and time settings for about two days if the camera is not supplied with power. The date and time settings will be cleared when the backup battery goes dead. The following are the conditions when power is not being supplied to the camera.

The date and time setting screen will appear on the monitor screen the next time you turn on the camera after the date and time settings have been cleared. If this happens, reconfigure the date and time settings.
