Hello

I have some pictures which are taken in GTM+1 time zone whit summer time. Wich time and time zone should I store in EXIF and XMP? Local time and time zone +2?

EXIF should store the local time (ie. "2013:06:18 07:16:40").  It doesn't have facility to store the time zone.

XMP should store the local time with time zone.  (ie. "2013:06:18 07:16:40+02:00" in ExifTool format)
