How to Print a Date on a Canon Power Shot
Power Shot is a popular model line of cameras manufactured and promoted by Canon. These cameras are digital and offer a lot of different options including zoom, macro photography and picture timers. Many people often forget the exact date and time that they took their pictures. However, there is a date stamp that can be enabled on the Canon Power Shot cameras. When you take a picture with the Date stamp enabled, the pictures will have the stamp on them when printed.
