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.

The A570IS can date-stamp the picture in the lower right corner, but only in postcard mode (1600x1200 resolution). The on-picture date-stamp function doesn't work with any other resolution. The pictures saved on the SD card have the correct date/time in the directory entry (if the camera date/time is set correctly), so if you preserve file attributes when copying you can date/time stamp them later with PC software. And yes, the movies do record sound. And it's not too shabby considering the diminutive size of the camera.

The Fuji Film on-line store has changed the availability date of this camera to "April". It previously said it will be available on March 24. Now they have until April 30th to ship it out, unless they change the date again. I am sure a lot of people will be disappointed with this news!http://www.shopfujifilm.com/detail/FUJ+16018645Folks.... I think we are in for a long wait!!!!!!

It didn't print any photos as it was an obsolete camera, with obsolete film (use by date was 2003!!!) So it was sent back. Extremely annoyed with the supplier. Now have a Fuji instant camera which prints about 3x4 inch. Very satisfied and a fraction of the cost for camera and film.

The date does not automatically appear as it is not on my photos. Awesome camera by the way

I don't know about printing the date but if you are thinking about buying a FinePix 500. I advise you not to. I purchased one over a year ago. It has not functioned well at any time. It quickly uses up batteries. Probably because the camera will turn its' self on and when I turn it off, after a short time it will continue self starting until I remove the batteries. I will sell you mine very cheap.

Yes, you can set the camera to place the date right on the picture with some exceptions; Set the camera to shooting mode. MENU (Settings) (Shooting Settings) [Write Date] desired mode On () Records a shooting date. When [On] is selected, the mark will appear on the bottom right of the screen while shooting. However, in some shooting modes that cannot record dates on images, the mark will disappear. Off Does not record a shooting date. You cannot record dates in the following situations: In movie mode When shooting still images while recording a movie (Dual Rec) When shooting panoramic images In burst shooting mode In [Easy Mode] In 3D shooting mode If you shot images with the date once, you cannot delete the date from the images later. The dates are doubly printed, if you set the camera to superimpose the dates when printing. The recorded time of the image cannot be superimposed on the image.

There is a date stamp. It's not something I use much but I can always tell the date as long as card is still in the camera. Once you dump photos onto hard drive, I think you'd have to catalogue by date.

Your responses have been very helpful! I have always used Sony cameras and when looking to upgrade to a good zoom, I find Sony does not have a date stamp on any of their higher end cameras :-( so I'm looking to Panasonic. My question to you is - will this Panasonic FZ18 do well when just set to automatic when used for zooming? I like GOOD pictures...but don't like fiddling with the camera and losing the "moment." Also, what is the difference between OPTICAL zoom and DIGITAL zoom? Thank you.

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

I currently use an FZ30 and I was thinking of replacing it with an FZ50 because my FZ30 has exactly the problem you've experienced. Only mine is a C-shaped mark in the upper right. There are no detectable marks on the lens and the camera has never gotten wet. I've always wrapped it up when I brought it in from the cold. I can't imagine how the sensor could have gotten dirty. I haven't checked out getting it repaired yet, but I'm disappointed to hear the problem can occur on a FZ50 too. Aside from this, it's the perfect camera.

There were no dates on any of my photos. I don't know if there is a setting you can select to have a date if wanted.

Hi,As far as I know they never set the Zi12 in full production. This listing is legit however, the product exists, so someone probably got hold of the few(?) ones that were actually made. If you buy it (like I did) there will be no support from Kodak or firmware updates etc. The camera in itself is wonderful and works perfectly though!

I haven't printed any of our photo's yet, but on the viewing screen of the camera there isn't any date or time numbers showing. I'm still learning more about the camera from the users manual/instructions that I've printed from the Samsung web site. Sorry I can't be more specific.

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.

I do not use the date feature because when I download to my picture file I have the event dated. But to answer your question, I really don't know. I still like the camera very much.

There might be some early orders out. A blogger found sample pics from Polish and Japanese websites so far.http://eyemindsoul.blogspot.com/2011/03/fujifilm-hs-20-exr-related-posts-index.html
