I don't see how this is invalid. It's great that I can get at the exif data explicitly. However, the date/time stamps on the file are not accurate. Anything that is rotated after the fact will have a different timestamp, so it makes the renaming useless. Some cameras don't autorotate the images and you have to do it manually.
I believe it should default to something more intelligent. the logic should be If Jpeg and exif are present, use exif original date taken, if exif original date taken doesn't exist, use exif date if exif date doesn't exist, use filestamp date. You don't agree with this? -- Exif Date should use Original Date Taken https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/461633 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Phatch Developers, which is subscribed to Phatch. Status in Phatch = Photo & Batch!: Invalid Bug description: The <year>, <month>, etc. date tags pull the date from exif "date" field. However, it should pull from "original date" field as the programs that rotate the images (or modify them to fix redeye, etc.) update the exif "date" field. The original date is the one you care about. If that field is not entered, it should default to the basic date field, but the main one should be "original date".
