exiftool or exiv2 will accomplish this. I prefer exiv2 as it is compiled and much quicker as exiftool is a perl "script".
I do: exiv2 -T ./*.{nef,jpg}
you might change to: exiv2 -T ./*.jpg
changes the file date/time to match the exif image creation date/time w/o changing the file name.
I will do this :-)
I go further and change the image file name to match creation date/time: exiv2 mv \-k \-r %y%m%d_%H%M%S_:basename: \.\/*.{nef,jpg}'

Mmm. Interesting, but this breaks the existing database.
yes, somewhat forward looking if one has many photos. I use darktable which make an xmp file matching the photo filename and contains all modification information for the photo. It is simple to also rename the xmp file to match the photo filename and re-import into darktable. I don't know about digikam, first looks some years back made me look further. I elected bibblepro which operated quite similarily to darktable. and I elected my filenaming prior to bibble. one chooses his own poison :) ps: bibble was sold to corel who collects entities in the manner of m$ and resulting effect are very similar, worthless apps. (bibble provided m$, mac and linux apps, including an rpm package.) -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
