Hi,
I am user of CANON powershot A80. I know that many camera's allow you to embed date the photo was taken in photo's. I tried to find embed date in photo's of A80.
Please let me know if you know how to do it .

Thanks,

The date is stored in the file automatically. Any viewing software will show you the date, the settings used, the camera, etc.

But I want to embed date in the Photo, So that I can view the date in the photo itself.

I do not have this camera, but I looked up the product manual for your camera, and as stated on page 28 of the user guide, it can only print the date on them from your computer using the software that came with the camera.

On page 25 of the software manual, step 4, there are options that you can choose to print the date and time on your pictures using your printer.

If you don't have the manuals to the camera, you can find them online here:

If you're like me, I like to take my camera to a Kodak PictureMaker and have them made from there. If you do this also, there would be no way that it could be printed automatically, unless you manually put text on the picture. (That just takes too long!!)

This the only way that you could print the date/time on your photos. Unlike my Sony, I have a setting on my camera that allows you to put the date/time on it before it even gets sent to my computer. This is just a feature that is different with every camera around.

Hope this helps you out.
