How do you get the date to print on the pictures? Anyone encountered this problem?

The A530 does have Date Stamp mode. It's covered in the Advanced User Guide. Don't believe everything (anything) you hear at Best Buy.

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.

I haven't look into that date/time feature. The photos are horrible, by the way, but I like the camera and recommend it.

That is odd, I set the date once and that is it, good luck, hope you get it all figured out.

I can only see the date for a very short time by pushing the top button. Couldn't find a way to make it stay on. Let me also say that in certain lighting, the display is unreadable.

When you move your photos to your computer, THEN VIEW THEM, the time/date stamp is there. It does not print on the photo (rather irritating when it does.) In fact, it tells you what you shot your photo in as well. Gives you option to add info, tag, etc.

Thanks to the posters with the tip on resetting the date. I never would have figured this out. Thank you, thank you!

I have not. I have printed out several photos and not had a problem. It has been almost a year for some of them, and they still look as great as they did when I printed them. I use the best photo paper and print with the highest quality. I do not know why the age of your paper would make a difference though.

i also have found that my camera needed to be reset. i dont see anywhere there is a setting for leap year or any other setting other than the time and date.

I would never display the date and time in an image - ruins the picture. With digital files, each file is time/date stamped - that works best.

If the interface for this camera is similar to the other Lumix, you have to enter the date manually in the print menu, basically you choose an option that says "print date on picture" or something similar, and when you download the file, it will show with the date stamp. Sorry I cannot give you the exact details, but I dont have the Lumix camera in front of me

I experienced the same problem and cannot print quality pictures, as a result. I am still trying to figure the problem out. I would suggest contacting the makers of the item for assistance. If you find out before I do please let me know. Thank you!

Canon SD750 turn the Date/Time stamp off, but my friend said this feature only works at Picture Mode.So this trivial feature does seem very hard on normal digital cameras, only Samsung/ Nikon support it extensively.

Yes, date stamp on the photo options are under Setup Menu #2. I don't know whether it date stamps the raw file but it does appear on the JPEG.

I use "copy' and that seems to work. Good luck- every time I want to print, I have to insert the disc and reinstall.

I had the same issue. I was able to print using "print" from the "file" menu.

I haven't added or used date stamps myself so I'm certainly not an expert. I browsed through the Help utility and didn't see any automatic method. You can add a text/date overly relatively easily but it would be a manual process for each image.
