End of Daylight Time in US: Have you changed your camera clo |
|
|
For those of you who like to have correct time stamps on your pictures,
remember to set the clock in your still and/or video camera to the
correct time.
Other clocks to consider:
Kitchen Stove - Answering Machine - Still Camera - Video Camera
VCR - Car - Cell Phone - PDA - Microwave - Watch - FAX Machine
Central Air Conditioning - GPS
Gary
P.S: 1. Yes, I know that I could keep my camera on GMT so that I would
never have to adjust it, but it's too much of a hassle to mentally
convert GMT to local time every time I look at the picture. 2. Yes, I
now that daylight time is a dumb idea, but what are you going to do? We
have it here!

When I make a mistake, I will repeat it several times so people
will think I did it on purpose.

Why bother? Unless you are shooting video for legal purposes.
Actually, I stay on daylight time year round. I refuse to acknowledge
that the joys of Summer are over.

I haven't really decided what to do about this. Daylight savings time
is less of an issue than travel between time zones. I keep forgetting
to reset the camcorder when I do that. |

I suspected this last year when someone (you?) posted this reminder, but
confirmed it tonight: my Sony VX2000 automatically adjusted its clock for
daylight savings.
So did my VCR, which surprised me, since it's supposed to pull the time
signals automatically from public-broadcast channels on cable (like PBS).
What's so special about that? It's not connected to cable TV... |

If it was "savings" perhaps it would attract an interest rate?

Daylight savings time, as it was once explained to me, happens so commuters
in the morning are driving at a time when there is light. More light=better
vision= less crashes. Of course there are the poor folks who get to drive
East into the rising sun! So there, a somewhat logical reason (not dure if
it is true! lol).
be safe

It's neither. You can't save daylight. |

It's not only on cable, it's also on the PBS B/C signal.
