If you want to sort by the exif data timestamp within some photos shot 
using a digital camera you have to change the code of the photoalbum 
plugin. It does not sort currently by the capture date of the photo. 
Look for something like

caption = exifDirectory.getString(ExifDirectory.TAG_DATETIME);

in the plugin code. This is the capture date in form of a string. So you 
have to convert it first to something that can be sorted by date and time.
Best regards,
Carsten
