Setting the date and time
Set the date and time display when you first start using your camera. As long as
you have inserted the backup battery (p. 54), the camera's internal clock will
continue to work even when the main power source is removed.
1. Open the camera menu to screen 2 and choose the DATE SET option.
• The year display starts flashing.
2. Press the controller up and down to change the year. Press sideways to
move to another part of the display.
• Press once to scan a year at a time. Press and hold to scan quickly.
• Once you move from the year, the next part of the display starts flashing.
3. Set the months, days, hours, and minutes in the same way.
• After you set the minutes, press the SET (or MENU) button to start the
clock; the camera displays the date and time for about 3 seconds and then
automatically returns to the camera menu.
• You can use the SET button to return to the camera menu, at any stage of
setting the clock.
4. Press the MENU button to close the menu.
Notes:
• The display can be set to any year between 2001 and 2050.
• In addition, you can assign CUSTOM KEY 1 to choose whether to add the date and
time to your recordings (see p. 25). Once assigned, press the CUSTOM KEY to
choose between auto–10s, off, and continuous display styles (each in turn).
Choosing the display style
You can choose between three different date/time displays at the camera menu.
