Time stamp function

The date and time of recording can be recorded to video images.

Select [ON] in the [TIME STAMP] item on the settings menu [RECORD SETUP] screen. When the TIME STAMP function is [ON], [ R ] will

be displayed in front of the date and time display in the viewfinder and the LCD monitor. In addition, the month display will change from a numerical value to an English name display.

•[ R ] display itself will not be recorded to the video.

•The size and position of the time and date characters recorded to the image will vary depending on the recording format.

•The size and position of the time stamp characters in external output displays may vary from the displays in the LCD monitor or viewfinder.

•The recorded time and date display will follow the settings made in the [DATE/TIME] item on the [DISPLAY SETUP] screen. If this item is set to [OFF], the date and time will not be recorded as a time stamp.

•To avoid date and time displays overlapping when clips with timestamps recorded are played with this camera, set the [DATE/TIME] item on the [DISPLAY SETUP] screen to [OFF]. You can also hide the date and time display by pressing the <DISP/MODE CHK> button.
