I have nothing against fun. This topic is fun. But if I want political diatribes from either side, I can easily go to Facebook.

Why don't you believe what was said? When I read the OP, I immediately went to my Nikon D800 and was going to reset the time. Lo and behold, when I went into the setup menu, the time displayed was the exact current time. Why was that you might say... because my camera was set for my time zone and Daylight Savings time was turned on. The camera correctly set the time as it should be.

Maybe your comment was meant jokingly, as if "Billnikon" was implying that only Nikon cameras can automatically set the time correctly, but thats not how your snarky comment appeared to me and possibly others. Just another example of some cranky Hog who thinks he knows it all IMO.

Get two TVs. Set one to Fox ad the other to MSNBC. All the fun you want.

Day light saving time has nothing to do with photography either.

Oh yes it does. I do a lot of my photography at sunrise, and yes, daylight savings time effects my timing greatly.

What do you know, I have 3 different cameras, Nikon D5300, Sony A6000, and Lumix ZS100. All on Daylight Savings.

Hoo RAAy! Californians have been erased from the 'Daylight Savings Time'. We're now like Arizona, and Hawaii!!!


No you are not and never could be like Arizonians. We are curmudgeonly iconoclasts. We are self sufficient and believe in personal responsibility. We take care of our own without asking the government for help. We know the words of the National Anthem and proudly stand, remove our hats, place our hands over our hearts and sing along when it plays. Democrat or Republican we are Americans first, Arizonans second and if you want to join us leave your confrontational politics where you came from. If you want to move the more remote areas remember the reason we live there is that we don't want paved roads, street lights or sidewalks. If you can live with that Welcome Friend, is not go somewhere else and change them to a clone of the place you ran away from.

Mine is probably still set to UK time...?????

I never ever look at it and I should care more but I don't


I took a camera to the UK 3 years ago, and it is still on UK time. Doesn't matter to me.

Californians voted this past midterm elections to eliminate Pacific Standard Time, and permanently stay with PDT. I don't know when it takes effect, because it has to get final approval from the Feds. That shouldn't be a problem, since Arizona, California's eastern neighbor, never changes time. At all. Standard Time is only 4 months out of the year.
And Daylight Savings Time lasts 8 months. Why not totally eliminate Standard Time altogether. Nationwide?


Permanent daylight savings time was tried before during the 1973 oil crisis. It resulted in school children walking to school and waiting for school buses in darkness in the winter. How people forget or don't care.

Why doesn't everyone just stay on Standard time. It works for AZ and HI.

Why eliminate standard time? It's the daylight saving time that should be eliminated.

The clock in most digital devices,
including my cameras, offers you
a choice of DST Off/On.

Admittedly thaz a serious problem, but in
practice the rest of the US is not gonna
vote to toss out 25% of its economy along
with 25% of its coastline, AND create a
HUGE competing nation on its own border.

Total population of our current two border
neighbors is 160 million. California would
add another 40 million to that.
