DATE AND TIME

It is important to accurately set the clock. When a recording is made, the date and time of the recording are saved with the file and are displayed in playback mode or with the DiMAGE Viewer software included on the CD-ROM. See page 20 for how the set the date and time.

DATE FORMAT

The date format that is used in monitor displays and for date imprinting 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. The date format does not affect date folder names (p. 67). The date format is set in the custom 2 section of the setup menu (p. 74).

VIDEO OUTPUT

Camera images can be displayed on a television (p. 73). 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.

TRANSFER MODE

The transfer-mode option switches the camera between a data storage device and a remote camera. To transfer files from the camera to a computer using the USB cable, the data storage option must be selected. The remote camera option allows the live video feed from the camera to be seen on a com- puter. For more on connecting the camera to a computer and the remote camera function, refer to the data-transfer section of the manual.
