Time Change 5D Mk111

canon400d

Hi
Following the recent hour time change. I altered the change on my 5D Mk111. It works fine until the following day I find the time reverts back to the old time. I have tried it several times but it still reverts back. Is there anything I can do to rectify this?
Cheers
Bob

Whenever you need to change the time do remember to press the "Set" button after making the time change. If you don't press the "Set" button the changes that you made won't persist.

However, regarding the Canon 5D Mark III, there is also a "daylight savings time" function which can be turned on and off as needed, eliminating most of the need to physically change the time. You still need to press the "Set" button even after changing the "daylight savings time" function, however.

See pages 36-37 of your user manual, or in this PDF:

Thanks once again Ziggy I don't know what I would do without you. I always pressed the 'set' button after I altered the time but as I have said it always reverted to the original time. I didn't know about the 'daylight savings time' I have switched it on and set the button so I am sure this will have solved the problem. Very much appreciated.
