I have a question, my metadata is off when I open Adobe Bridge or Photoshop. I think it's because when I download the photos, I just drag the RAW image files, and leave the THM files. Has anyone had a problem with that. The time is exactly four hours off, it thinks that the hour that the image is created is when I downloaded it onto my computer rather then when I took the photo, and the date modified is when I actually took the picture. Does this sound familiar to anyone? |

yes, I have noticed a discrepancy like this. I have not yet quite figured out how it happens or which program is the culprit, but it certainly has made me watch when I take pics and then submit them. |

I upload using RSP (both CRW and THM) and RSP gets the date/time right. When I reference the files with Adobe Bridge/Photoshop the date/time is weird.

So...if I submit a photo, and I have the original CRW file, if I get asked to prove the date and time I took it, it's ok, cus they will have the right time and date, it's just with adobe creative suite that it's messed up? |

Yes, this happens to me all the time, and I use Windows Explorer to transfer files. As long as the modification date is before the "Date Taken" I think you should be all set, although I'm no authority on this. |

This is a known issue with ACR, and I have no idea why Adobe has not corrected it. It has persisted through at least two revisions. Bottom line, if asked for a proof file, you'd be submitting the out-of-camera RAW file, so for challenges it's a non-issue. It's only an issue for your internal tracking, trying to figure out why that shot that obviously was taken at sunrise has a timestamp nowhere near that time.

Thanks, I was just wondering because of the challenge, as far as for my own sake, I usually write down where and when I take shots, so I have never really looked or depended on the metadata. Tahnks for your help |
