Quick Start Basics
The first time you load a battery into the camera, a screen appears for configuring the
display language, date, and time settings. Failure to set the date and time correctly
will cause the wrong date and time data to be recorded with images.
IMPORTANT!
• A screen for language selection will not appear in step 2 of the procedure below if
you purchased a camera intended for the Japanese market. To change the display
language from Japanese in this case, use the procedure under “Specifying the
Display Language (Language)” (page 96). Note that a version of this manual in the
language you select may not be included with a camera intended for the Japanese
market.
• Camera models sold in certain geographic areas may not support display language
selection.
