The camera can add the shooting date to images, in the lower-right 

corner.

However, note that date stamps cannot be edited or removed, so confirm 

beforehand that the date and time are correct (= 17).

 

●

Press the [

] button, choose [Date 

Stamp  ] on the [ ] tab, and then 

choose the desired option (= 25).

 

●

Once the setting is complete, [ ] is 

displayed.

 

●

As you take shots, the camera adds the 

shooting date or time to the lower-right 

corner of images.

 

●

To restore the original setting, choose 

[Off] in step 1.

 

●

Date stamps cannot be edited or removed.

You can specify the delay (0 – 30 seconds) and number of shots (1 – 10).

 

●

Following step 1 in “Using the Self-Timer” 

(= 34), choose [ ] and press the 

[

] button immediately.

 

●

Press the [ ][ ] buttons to choose 

[Delay] or [Shots].

 

●

Press the [ ][ ] buttons to choose a 

value, and then press the [ ] button.

 

●

Once the setting is complete, [ ] is 

displayed.

 

●

Follow step 2 in “Using the Self-Timer” 

 

●

For movies shot using the self-timer, [Delay] represents the delay 
before recording begins, but the [Shots] setting has no effect.

 

●

When you specify multiple shots, image brightness and white 
balance are determined by the first shot. More time is required 
between shots when the flash fires or when you have specified 
to take many shots. Shooting will stop automatically when the 
memory card becomes full.

 

●

When a delay longer than two seconds is specified, two seconds 
before the shot, the lamp blinking and self-timer sound will speed 
up. (The lamp will remain lit in case the flash fires.)
