![]() Here is a paste from the EXIF of a full-size JPEG I posted to Flickr (exported from LR). ![]() But the date of jpeg creation is there too, along with any modifications. What matters is capture and when the raw file was digitized. No one cares when the jpeg was created from the raw. You always want to know the date-time of capture no matter what kind of file you are viewing. However, that said, I want the capture date to be in the metadata of the exported jpeg because I want to be able to see that on my Flickr jpeg. JPEGs? I create them from LR, use them how I want (like email, posting to Flickr, etc.), then I delete them. It is also in the exported JPEG Exif and metadata info. The capture date is always in the metadata of the raw file because I always see it in LR no matter what. ![]() That's why the photo industry long ago decided to encode the capture date inside the photo's metadata. Too many programs and utilities, including some from Apple itself, won't preserve those fields in the way you'd like. See this post for a hint about the correct command-line magic spell:Īlternatively alternatively, you could use the A Better Finder Attributes utility to set the Date Created from the capture date recorded in the photo's EXIF fields.Ī huge caveat: Relying on files' Date Created and Date Modified for a workflow is quite fragile. You could ask the author of Metadata Wrangler to add an option to set the file's Date Created as well, which should be easy for him to implement.Īlternatively, you could use the Run Any Command plugin to run the free Exiftool utility (which is used by Metadata Wrangler) to set the file's Date Created. That would allow you to sort exported files in Finder by their capture dates. However, the Metadata Wrangler plugin will optionally set the exported file's Date Modified (but not Date Created) to the capture date recorded in the photo's metadata. There is no way with built-in LR commands to set an exported file's Date Created from the capture date recorded in the original photo's metadata.
