IPTC Information

You can write IPTC information* when recording still images. Create and edit IPTC information using the dedicated software (http://www.sony.net/iptc/help/) and write the information to a memory card beforehand.
This function can be used when the camera's system software (firmware) is Ver.2.00 or later.

*IPTC information consists of digital image metadata attributes, as standardized by the International Press Telecommunications Council.
