Nice M2

Thanks! It has definitely exceeded my expectations in every way.

Had this camera for about 2 weeks now, love it, I am certain I am missing something. Is there not a way to do 12H time in the menu and the time and date gets reset every time you change the battery?

AFAIK, the camera only uses 12 hour time. As for the battery, per the manual, the time settings "may be reset when the camera is stored without the battery, when the battery becomes exhausted, or when it is exposed to below freezing temperatures for a prolonged period." I haven't seen the behavior that you're describing when changing the battery or under any other circumstance.

My 5D4 uses the 24-hour clock and I don't seem to be able to change it. Maybe it's set according to the market for which it is intended. I've never had the time reset so maybe a new battery is in order

The Camera tags the image with a timestamp in GMT/UTC,. nothing more.
How that is displayed via exif etc. is entirely up to the software and OS of the equipment on which you are viewing the image files.

If your getting am and pm or 24hr it's because that's how your machine is set up, nothing to do with any setting in the 5D4.

I think that's partly right, as far as how your computer time is set. The camera clock itself appears to operate on a 24 hour cycle with no way to change it.
