    Solution

      When you turn on the camera for the first time, the Time zone and Date/Time setting screen will appear. First set the time zone, then set the date and time.
      Note that the shooting date/time appended to the captured images will be based on this date/time setting. Be sure to set the correct date/time.

      1. Set the power to <ON>.

      2. Press <MENU> button to display the menu.



      3. Under the [ ] tab, select [Date/Time].



      4. Press the <Main Dial> button to select the [ ] tab.
      Press the <Main Dial> button to select [Date/Time], then press </SET>.



      5. Select [OK], then press </SET> button.



      6. The date/time and daylight saving time will be set and the menu will reappear.
      NOTE
      • To synchronize the seconds, in step 5, press </SET> at 0 sec.
      • If you remove the battery or the battery is exhausted, the time zone and date/time might be reset. If this happens, set the Time zone and Date/Time again.
