SETTING THE TIME AND DATE

The SD14 camera records the date and time when each image is captured and
stores this information with the image. To ensure that the correct information is
recorded with each image, set the camera’s internal clock to the correct date and
time before using the camera for the first time or after extended periods of
disuse.

TIP

The date can be displayed in one of three formats: mm/dd/yyyy (month/day/year),
dd/mm/yyyy (day/month/year), or yyyy/mm/dd (year/month/day).

The camera’s internal clock is powered by a capacitor that receives its charge from
camera’s battery. If the camera is without battery for an extended period of time,
such as after prolonged storage, the internal clock will need to be reset.

You can synchronize the date and time on the SD14 camera to your computer by
using the “Set Date and Time…” option in the Camera menu of the SIGMA Photo
Pro software (See SIGMA Photo Pro Manual provided on the CD-ROM).
