[Bug 644125] Re: Date information not imported with jpg files of scanned negatives

 

Hi Michael,

Thanks for the text files.  This verifies my suspicions, that the
scanner is using the plain DateTime EXIF tag and not DateTimeDigitized
or DateTimeOriginal.  If we use a fallback scheme (first looking for
DateTimeOriginal, then DateTimeDigitized, then DateTime), this should
solve your problem.  We're still on the fence about how, or if, to use
the file's modification time, but there is some rationale to that.

No idea about the Apple tur-- ah, *tag* -- in your EXIF data.  Perhaps
Nikon doesn't expect people to use its hardware on anything but a Mac.

Glad to hear that Shotwell is meeting your needs, even if we're still
catching up on this point.  Hopefully we'll have this fixed for you
shortly.
