changed using "Time Zone" (page 124) and
"Clock Set" (page 124) of the OTHERS menu.
Notes
• If the clock setting is cleared because of
exhaustion of the backup battery while no
operation power was being supplied (no battery
pack and no DC IN connection), the Initial
Setting display will be displayed when you turn
the camcorder on at the next opportunity.
• While the Initial Setting display is shown, no
other operation except turning the power off is
permitted until you finish the setting for this
display.
