Date Imprinting - Minolta Dimage X20 Instruction Manual

DATE IMPRINTING

The date and time of recording can be printed directly on the
image. The imprinting function must be activated before the
image is taken. Once activated, the date will continue to be
imprinted until the function is reset; a yellow bar is displayed
behind the frame counter on the monitor to indicate the
imprinting function is active.
Date imprinting is activated with the section 1 of the recording-mode menu (p. 48). Date
imprinting has two menu options. The YYYY/MM/DD option prints the date. The
MM/DD/hr:min option prints the month, day, and time of recording.
Camera Notes
Every time a still image is recorded, it is stored with an exif tag that contains the date and time of
recording as well as shooting information. This information can be viewed with the camera in the
playback mode, or on a computer with the DiMAGE Viewer software.
