[digikam] [Bug 361052] New: When importing picture file dates are all from importing time. Not creation date

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=361052

Bug ID: 361052
Summary: When importing picture file dates are all from
importing time. Not creation date
Product: digikam
Version: 4.14.0
Platform: openSUSE RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Import
Assignee: [hidden email]
Reporter: [hidden email]

When importing images from freshly connected camera all the image file dates
and times are all from importing time. Did not pay attention to that until now.
in 2014 there all my images have same file date/times as in exif creation
date/time.
Has this been changed intentionally or is there a not yet found switch to chose
behavior or is it a bug? I would rather have the old behavior.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Attach camera. choose image download with digikam
2. Digikam Importer window opens. chose pictures for download and initiate the
download.
3. open File manager like Dolphin and check date/time of the downloaded files.

Actual Results:
Date/time is current, not creation date/time of the picture.

Expected Results:
Date/time of the file is creation date/time of the picture.

RAW or JPEG files? The modification date is correctly for RAW files. We write
the document name in the EXIF for JPEG files or by activated automatic
rotation, fix internal date / time and rating or color / pick label change, is
the modification date from file changed to the current date. I think we should
write the document name optional in the EXIF. If all JPEG operations are
disabled, the modification date is unchanged and the file is unchanged.

My camera just supports jpeg files. so no idea whether different behavior with
raw images.

I cannot follow your sentence "we write .... current date". What do you want to
tell me? what do you mean by document name? is it the file name?
concerning jpeg operations: I do not modify the files in any way at import
time. even no copyright entry.

To make it clear: I would like to have the date and time given to the imported
picture file the same as the date and timestamp when the picture has been
taken. Otherwise sorting by date (especially if several cameras took pictures
(and film sequences!) at an event cannot be done reliable.
And I have checked now closer: beginning 01.10.2015 digikam started to have a
different behavior. Previous to that date (digikam 4.6.0 as stated in EXIF
Information under Processing Software) all the files got the time stamp of the
shooting time.
Unfortunately there is a time area where following images do not have the
Processing Software entry. (another bug?). Latest images are correct again
concerning the Processing Software value.

DigiKam5 is not yet released, is currently beta-5. See release plan:

https://www.digikam.org/about/releaseplan

Currently you must compile it from the sources themselves.
