Date and time backup

Under normal conditions, while the battery pack is being replaced, an internal battery will maintain the date and time settings. However, there is a small chance the settings may be lost (the backup will last for about 7 days). It is recommended to check that the date and time settings are still correct after replacing the battery pack and before shooting or recording of any type.
