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 (A104).

You can enable or disable daylight saving time by going to the z setup menu and selecting Time

zone and date followed by Time zone and then

o. When enabled, the clock moves forward

one hour; when disabled, the clock moves back one hour. When the travel destination (x) is
selected, the time difference between the travel destination and the home time zone (w) is
automatically calculated and the date and time in the selected region are saved at the time of
shooting.

If you exit without setting the date and time, O will flash when the shooting screen is displayed.

Use the Time zone and date setting in the setup menu to set the date and time (

A104).

The Clock Battery

The camera’s clock is powered by a backup battery that is separate from the camera’s main

battery.

The backup battery charges when the main battery is inserted into the camera or when the

camera is connected to an optional AC adapter, and can provide several days of backup power
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 (

A20) of “Preparation 4

Setting the Display Language, Date, and Time” for more information.

C

Imprinting the Shooting Date on Printed Images

Set the date and time before shooting.

You can permanently imprint the shooting date on images as they are captured by setting Print

date in the setup menu (

A104).

If you want the shooting date to be printed without using the Print date setting, print using the

ViewNX 2 software (

A88).
