Setting the Date, Time, and Zone

When you turn on the power for the first time or if the date/time has been reset, the Date/Time/Zone setting screen will appear. Follow steps 3 to 6 to set the current date, time, and time zone.

Note that the date/time appended to recorded images will be based on this date/time setting. Be sure to set the correct date/time.

You can also set the time zone of your current address. Then if you travel to another time zone, you can simply set your destination’s time zone so that the correct date/time will be recorded.
