As the digital file is marked by a date and time when it's saved, the use of a date stamp feature in digital cameras has lost popularity amongst camera manufacturers as a feature. Sorry, but the postcard feature may be the best you can do unless you're willing to add the date/time after the fact.

Postcard mode involves two steps in the setting. Step one selects the postcard mode :
Function > Recording Pixels > Post card

Step two sets the date to on/off :
Record Menu > Date off/on.

Date stamp is set to off by default and there is no way to remove the date once it is stamped on the picture.
