《Setting the date and time》 【更多lynda教程字幕，尽在www.iacrobat.com】 Your camera has a clock and a calendar in it.
【更多lynda教程字幕，尽在www.iacrobat.com】 Every time you take a picture, the date and time are stored with that picture.
【更多lynda教程字幕，尽在www.iacrobat.com】 This can be very handy when you're editing, not just to find out when you took
a picture, but for sorting your images or searching for images or for
geotagging your images.
With the right hardware and software, you can add longitude and latitude data to
your images in post-production,
but for that to work you have to have the camera's clock set properly.
Also, if you travel, you'll want to reset the clock as you change time zones,
so knowing how to set the date and time is very important.
To set the date and time on a 5100, press the menu button.
By default, you'll probably come up to the Shooting menu, unless you've
already been fiddling with the menus, in which case you'll come up to the last
menu you were looking at.
We want to go down here to the Setup menu, which is the one that looks like a
little wrench, and then right-arrow over to here, and you've got to scroll down
a ways, and there is Time Zone and Date.
Now you've probably already set the time because the camera asks you to do that
when you first turn it on,
but there are some other features in here that you might use somewhat regularly.
Well, let's go through the whole processor here.
First, we set the time zone.
I can just scroll left and right to find the particular spot in the world where I live,
so I'm going to do that and then hit OK.
Next, I need to set the date and time.
I've got Year, Month, Date, Hours, Minutes, Seconds.
You can just scroll back and forth with the left and right arrow keys, up and
down to change a value.
When you're done, hit the OK button.
I can choose the Date format that I want;
Day/Month/Year, Month/Day/Year, Year/ Month/Day, whatever your preference is for
your particular location.
I've got a toggle switch here for Daylight Savings Time.
As Daylight Savings Time goes on and off, you can also change the Daylight
Saving Time feature here, and your camera will adjust its time automatically.
Most importantly though, I can now change my time zone.
If I go traveling, I can come in here and just dial in a new time zone, and
notice that for every time zone that's highlighted, I get some sample cities
that are in that time zone to give me a better idea of exactly where I am in the world here.
Hit OK and my clock is automatically adjusted for the time difference between
my original time and where I moved to, and then I can just set it back when I get back home.

written into my images is correct as I go traveling.
