Setting the date/time of the internal clock
The date/time and time zone are recorded as metadata in the content (clip) while shooting. The date/time metadata will affect the playback order by the

Always check and set the date/time and time zone before using the camera for the first time.
Do not change the setting of the date/time and time zone while shooting.

@ @ NOTE
t
You can correct the date and time of the internal clock from GPS by enabling the GPS function.
t
The accuracy of the clock is approximately ±30 seconds per month. Check and reset the time when accurate time is required.
t
Note that if the time is received using the built-in GPS, the time of the internal clock (local date and time) is maintained accurately based on the time
received (Greenwich mean time) and the time zone.
Check the settings of the time zone again if the settings for the time zone is not correct, such as the wrong local date and time are displayed as the
time of the internal clock (it is not necessary to reset the internal clock).
