SETTING THE TIME AND DATE
The DP2X camera records the date and
time when each image is captured and
stores this information with the image.
To ensure that the correct information is
recorded with each image, set the
camera’s internal clock to the correct
date and time before using the camera
for the first time or after extended
periods of disuse.

and turn the camera on.
2
Use the button to select the [Date /
Time] menu and press the button.
3
When the “ : Jump to Date / Time
Setting menu” message is displayed, press
the
button again.
4
Press the button to select an item and
change it by pressing the button.

Press the button to apply the setting or
the button to return to the sub-menu

TIP
•
The date can be displayed in one of three formats: M/D/Y
(month/day/year), D/M/Y (day/month/year), or Y/M/D (year/month/day).
Select the desired format from “Date Format”.
•
The camera’s internal clock is powered by a capacitor that receives its
charge from camera’s battery. If the camera is without battery for an
extended period of time, such as after prolonged storage, the internal
clock will need to be reset.
