Yes!

I took a picture the day after the clocks went back, and noticed that the time on it was wrong. I'd actually assumed that it would do it automatically, like Windows, but I guess that's a bit much to expect.

I'd like to sound smug, but I also noticed that I'd set the date wrong originally

Maybe if you try plugging the camera into the PC. Only joking dont bother I dont think they are that smart. (Yet)

Yes, all cameras set correct (GMT), but not car, far to complicated, menus/flow charts, involved grrrrrrr.


Take care

My camera was the first thing that got changed.

His nibs car does it automatically. Clever stuff.

What really annoys me is I have a TAG watch that cost a small fortune and I have to manually adjust it every time the clocks change.

I have a cheap digital watch that I wear to work which cost me peanuts ... it does it automatically

My phone changed automatically and whilst out on a walk this confused me as I assumed I would have to change it - it does not take much to confuse me

I realised the phone had to be wrong otherwise my camera would have been two hours out

It caught me out once. I took a picture where the light from a very high window was just touching a statue, but I didn't really nail the shot.

Looking at the shot later I thought I'd have another go, and I knew the exact time I had to be there. So I turned up just before the appointed time - and waited an hour for the sunbeam to get to its appointed place.

The camera had been on GMT all the time, so the EXIF showed 12:00 and the clock time for the shot was actually 13:00...

That's the shot used for my avatar by the way - there's a slot of a few minutes where it gets that lighting.

Has anyone noticed Windows XP has changed the times on
photographs uploaded to their PC?

Seems to be a Windows Feature!
