Hi, when I change the battery in my SX60HS, it loses the time and date information. What's happening here?
Thanks,
Bob

What is a "date time battery"?

Digital cameras, like computers, have a battery that maintains the camera's date/time setting when you remove the main battery. This date/time battery is user-replaceable when it runs down, or it's a built-in battery that is kept charged by the main battery. The built-in rechargeable battery does not last forever. When it no longer takes/holds a charge, the camera loses the date/time instantly when the main battery is removed. Same as if the user-replaceable battery is dead.

I don't have the user manual 😕. I was given the camera without it.

Thanks. I think my gifted one might be too old to replace that.
