Title: Batch-adjust shooting time stamp
Post by: feppe on August 24, 2008, 06:35:25 pm

Just got back from a trip to HK and Beijing. I forgot to change the clock on my camera, and now I have 2790 photographs with the time stamp 6 hours off. What's the least painful way to change them, preferably in LR?

Feppe....

I think they cover this in Lightroom tutorial from Michael and Jeff; I don't remember for sure but I'm pretty sure it has to do with syncing metadata.

Cheers...

If LR can't do it, you could try ExiftoolGui

Oh, wow, it appears I'm not the only one who does this as there's an actual option to do this!

Thanks, fixed!

I used it to synchronize two cameras from a wedding I shot. I forgot to reset them before the event. I used the filter to seperate cameras and reset the time on one........Voila!... chronological order.
