in your viewfinder and on a connected colour monitor,
record them manually or automatically, and even make
your own titles.

You should already have performed the Date/Time

while you’re shooting, the date indication is recorded for
about 5 seconds from that point. It is not recorded
during any other recordings made on that day.
