When setting the 'DATE TAKEN' time stamp using 'Edit->Edit Data->Dates->Taken Date->Set to Fixed Date & Created Date', the image/sidecar files are stamped with incorrect datetime stamps. The file datetime stamps for image/sidecar files are different and vary based upon the date range the DATE TAKEN date falls within. The image/sidecar datetime stamps are correct if the DATE TAKEN date falls within the range 1980 to present. See FIGURE 1 below and screen captures 1980_01 and 1980_02 for details. The image/sidecar datetime stamps are correct for only one date field and missing for the remainder of the date fields if DATE TAKEN falls within the range 1979 to 1980. See FIGURE 2 below and screen captures 1970_01 and 1970_02 for details. The image/sidecar datetime stamps are correct for only one date field and set to CURRENT DATE for the remainder of the date fields if DATE TAKEN falls 1960. See FIGURE 3 below and screen captures 1960_01 and 1960_02 for details. FIGURE 1: DATE TAKEN between 1980 to present (see screen captures 1980_01 & 02) file type | Date | Created Date | Modified Date | ------------------------------------------------------------------------- image file .JPG | (DATE TAKEN) | (DATE TAKEN) | (DATE TAKEN) | sidecar file .XMP | (DATE TAKEN) | (DATE TAKEN) | (DATE TAKEN) | FIGURE 2: DATE TAKEN between 1970 and 1979 (see screen captures 1970_01 & 02) file type | Date | Created Date | Modified Date | ------------------------------------------------------------------------- image file .JPG | (DATE TAKEN) | (missing) | (missing) | sidecar file .XMP | (missing) | (missing) | (missing) | FIGURE 3: DATE TAKEN before 1960 (see screen captures 1960_01 & 02) file type | Date | Created Date | Modified Date | ------------------------------------------------------------------------- image file .JPG | (DATE TAKEN) | (CURRENT DATE) | (CURRENT DATE) | sidecar file .XMP | (CURRENT DATE) | (CURRENT DATE) | (CURRENT DATE) | I have not investigated DATE TAKEN datetime ranges more thoroughly before 1960 from what I have above. These results are reproduceable for any image/sidecar file I produce with these date ranges. |
