Will it date and time stamp? Also can it take pics at .03 or 640 x 480 4:3? I need it to do both.

It will do both but I cant recommend this camera! After short periods of use the cameras' sensor developed "dark spots" that look like little black clouds on every picture. I thought it was a fluke or something I did. I bought an identical one and the same thing happened within 2 weeks. They can not be used for anything that needs a "clear" now picture and I will not buy another Panasonic of this type.

The Camera is able to apply the time/date in 2 ways for picture taking. Using the menu you can select to have the time/date on pictures (that WILL show up on printed pictures) (not avail. in "auto" mode) and you can apply text/date after actually taking the picture, during review ( that should work in all modes)..It appears that you CANNOT apply time/date stamp while recording a movie! You can download the "advanced" manual for the camera before buying and look through that. It will give you alot of details of the camera's operation.

The viewable resolution is 680 x 480, so you could always do that.The sample album pics are 688 x 488, but I would imagine that its a 4 pixel buffer around the edge.

The AW100 I had stamped the date & time, no coordinates, but my camera never worked right, so maybe one that functioned properly could do so. For what my advice is worth, stay away from refurbs.

Time and Date are set using the LCD screen and button controls of this camera. Fist, make sure that Date and Time display is enabled by pressing the round red button on the top of the unit to turn recording off (do this only is currently recording). Then press the Menu button. Then press the Down button three times until "Time Stamp" is selected. Press the round red button on the top of the unit to access a submenu, then press the Down button until "Date&Time" is selected. Then press the round Red button on the top of the unit. Then press the Menu button, and then press the Down button maybe seven times until "Date Input" is highlighted. Then press the round Red button on the top of the unit to access a submenu. Press the Down button to highlight "Set", then press the round Red button at the top of the unit. You will see that "YYYY / MM / DD" is highlighted. Press the round red button once to highlight the year on the next second line. Press the UP or DOWN buttons until the correct year is set. Then press the round Red button to select the month. Use UP or DOWN buttons again until the desired month is shown, and then the round Red button. Same for day of the month. The hour will be selected. Remember to use 24-hour time for the hour! Use UP and DOWN buttons to select 1-24 for the hour, then press the round Red button to select the minute. Continue with the UP, DOWN, and round Red button for minute and second until you are back at the menu screen. Press the Menu button again, and you can verify that the correct time is shown on the bottom right corner of the LCD display! If this is helpful, then please write a short two-word "Thank You" in reply. It took me a couple of hours of researching on the internet before I could put the pieces together to understand this procedure! Your reply will let me know if anyone reads these things!

I just tested this and this is the case with the SD870IS as well. It will add a date/timestamp in yellow text in the lower right corner of the photo only in the 1600x1200 "postcard" mode.Interesting that it will not do so in the M3 1600x1200 mode.

You have to set as a manual default in the 'tools' menu. then, all images will show the date and time.

I just bought this camera recently and I'm guessing the answer is no. I've been trying to figure out a way to get the date on and it's just not possible. This is like the 4th camera I've bought for myself and I'm a little disappointed that I can't put the dates on. But all in all it's still a good camera.

Yes, go to the set up menu and you can choose the option of having the date and time imprinted on your pictures

Yes and nine other settings of higher resolution. 640 x 480 will work in auto mode as well for point and shoot. Other higher modes require custom settings.

Yes.. You can take pictures with the date stamp on it.. VGA?? Sure!! you can go as low as that but the quality is not going to be the same as 720!!

I don't see how; I do have my Fuji camera pics time/date stamped however Some pics show distorted.

Just the date will appear on the actual picture. The LCD display will show the date AND time due to it being written in the EXIF data of the photo.

No the pictures are not date stamped. That feature is generally for more expensive cameras. However, I have been more than pleased with the quality of the pictures.
