The Basics of Shooting and Playback
C Changing the Language Setting and the Date and Time Setting
• You can change these settings using the Language and Time zone and date settings in the
z setup menu (A 72).
• You can enable or disable daylight saving time in the z setup menu by selecting Time zone and
date followed by Time zone. Press the multi selector K and then H to enable daylight saving
time and move the clock forward one hour, or I to disable daylight saving time and move the
clock back one hour.
C The Clock Battery
• The camera’s clock is powered by a built-in backup battery. The backup battery charges when the
main batteries are inserted into the camera or when the camera is connected to an optional AC
adapter, and it can run the clock for several days after about ten hours of charging.
• If the camera’s backup battery becomes exhausted, the date and time setting screen is displayed
when the camera is turned on. Set the date and time again. See step 3 (A 16) of “Preparation 3
Setting the Display Language, Date, and Time” for more information.
C Imprinting the Shooting Date on Printed Images
• You can permanently imprint the shooting date on images as they are captured by setting Print
date in the setup menu (A 72).
• If you want the shooting date to be printed without using the Print date setting, print using the
ViewNX 2 software (A 76).
