NOTE
œIf the date and time are not set, January 1, 2000 midnight is recorded as the date and time. Consequently, “2000/01/01 00:00” appears during playback.
œUnder normal conditions, while the batteries are 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 approx. 30 minutes.) It is recommended to check that the date and time settings are still correct after replacing the batteries and before shooting or recording of any type (follow steps 1 and 2).
