Hi,

I would like to complete the "Shooting" field using the file name.

Could you tell me the syntax to use ?

Thank you and have a nice day

This is covered by the third paragraph in FAQ #5 (https://exiftool.org/faq.html#Q5). As Luuk2005 says, you can copy the filename directly into the timestamp tag. Exiftool extract the numbers and take care of the formatting.
