THE DATA BACK (optional)
17
If you have purchased your camera as the Date
version, read this section.
The DATE model records data information on your
photographs clearly on each frame that you
expose.
At each press of the DATE button as shown in the
illustration, the mode on the LCD panel of the
Data Back switches as indicated in the chart.
• [ — — — ] indicates that no data will be imprint-
ed.
• If there is a white or yellow object in the corner of
the picture where the data is imprinting, the data
may be difficult to read. When composing your
photograph, try to avoid brightly-colored subject
in that corner.
• The dating unit automatically switches the
imprint mode between the standard and panora-
ma according to the format selected.
• To adjust the data, see page 72.
• The data back operates on a 3V lithium battery.
If the data imprinted on the picture or the data
displayed on the LCD panel become weak or
invisible, the battery may need replacing. To
replace the battery see page 73.
