Exif Edit - Anyone know a good utility

[swans]

After being without a "real" camera for 10 years, my 20D and Tamron 28-75 was delivered on Friday. After unpacking, I immediately went out and shoot a few dozen shots. Amazing/Fantastic/Reborn, I came inside reviewed my pics and kissed the camera (I hope this isn't odd).

Next I set the date/time. Unfortunately I set it erroneously. Didn't realize my mistake until today and after ~600 shots. So they are showing up in Photoshop Elements 3.0 on the wrong day.

Has anyone used a good, easy-to-use Exif edit utility that can modify the appropriate fields??

Another thread mentioned Exifer.

Thanks, I'll take a look. I did run across a tool called AttributeMagic Pro that seems to work - athough I cannot increment the time on sequential files. So I can get the date right (in batch mode) but will need to edit each file individually in order to sequence the time.

BreezeBrowser Pro has a function to adjust the time on a batch of photos.

The latest version of Adobe Creative Suite (CS2) has a file manager called "The Bridge" and one of its capabilities is to find exif data and export it as a text file. If your'e into APS then this should be useful.

Elements 3.0 will let you adjust the date/time stamps on the images then you can move them to the proper folders. I'm not sure if it changes the EXIF data or just the file timestamp. I'll have to investigate that this eveing.

PowerExif Editor can modify and add all Exif tags. The pro version provide batch process.

I think PE3 only changes the file's timestamp but I'll investigate it this evening. ACDSee will allow ou to edit th eexif data but I'm not sure if that was one of the fields it wil edit. I can check that this evening also if I don't forget - as you get older the memory gets terrible.

I had to do this once and it is really a pain to then move images ot the proper location.
The link to PowerExif looks promising. Thanks.

Does this type of software allow somebody to remove my name as author and insert their own in the EXIF data?
