I have made a mistake in setup the date in my camera. As a results all the photos taken are dated 1 month in advance.

I have found a quick way to fix this issue by editing the EXIF information of the photo.


EXIF is industry standard for all digital camera makers. The date time of the photo take in the JPEG file is stored as tags in the meta data of JPEG files.

The tool I use is Imatch from photools. There is quick way to adjust date time of selected photos without affecting the quality and size of the Jpeg.

EXIF timestamp update

It’s fast and easy, I have used Imatch to update 400+ photos taken with date in 1 month later. I took less than 20 minutes to update all the affected photo.
