It’s important to set the date and time so that pictures and videos are organized by the date taken. The date and time procedure varies slightly between camera models, but generally:
  1. Turn on the camera.
  2. Press the Menu button Image.
    • If you see a Setup tab: Press the Right arrow button to highlight the Setup tab.
    • If you don't see a Setup tab: Press the Down arrow button to select Setup, then press the OK button.
    • If your camera doesn't have a Menu button: Press the Review button Image, then choose Settings Image.
  3. Press the Down arrow button to choose Date & Time (or similar), then press the OK button.
  4. Press the Right/Left arrow buttons to move between year, month, and date. Press (or press and hold) the Up/Down arrow buttons to scroll through the year, month, and date.
    Use the same procedure to set the time.
  5. When finished, press the OK button.

NOTES:

  • If your camera has a touchscreen, the same principles apply. Tap Settings Image, then Date & Time (or similar).
  • Some cameras let you display the time in 12- or 24-hour format.
