Use date in Filename to add into Exif data?

[Erik7]

Hello,

I have about 500 photo's where there is no date/time in the Exif data. This makes it difficult to sort my photo's.
However, the filename contains the correct date, for example: IMG-20160102.jpg

My question is: Is it possible to add the date (out of the filename) into the Exif data? And also in bulk for the other photo's?

Thanks,
Erik

PS: Sorry for my bad English!

Hi Erik,

Try this:

exiftool "-alldates<${filename} 00:00:00" DIR
