Menu Guide—The Set-up Menu
Setting the Time and Date: Date
This option is used to set the camera to the cur-
rent date and time. For more information, see
“Introduction: First Steps” ( 15).
Confirming Shutter Release: Shot Confirmation
If On is selected for this option, the self-timer lamp
will light to confirm that the shutter has been re-
leased. The self-timer lamp will not light if the
flash has fired.
Storing Photo Info in a Separate File: info.txt
While On is selected in the info.txt menu, the
following information about each image recorded
is stored in an independent text file (“info.txt”):
• File number and type
• Camera type and firmware version
• Metering method
• Exposure mode
• Shutter speed
• Aperture
• Exposure compensation
• Focal length and digital zoom
• Image adjustment
• Sensitivity (ISO equivalency)
• White balance
• Sharpening
• Date of recording
• Image size and quality
• Saturation control
• Focus area
The info.txt file is stored in the same folder as the image. When the contents
of the memory card are viewed from a computer, this file can be read with a
text browser such as Notepad or SimpleText. Images are listed in the order
recorded, separated by a blank line.
