The camera clock is powered by an independent, rechargeable power
source, which is charged as necessary when the main battery is installed
or the camera is powered by an optional EH-5a or EH-5 AC adapter
(pg. 365).

Two days of charging will power the clock for about three

months.

If the

Check the clock regularly against more accurate time pieces and

reset as necessary.
