Hello,

with

  exiftool -AllDates-=1 -overwrite_original DIR

I can change the date but also the file is overwritten the original date and time stamp of the file changed to the actual date.

Is there a way to keep origianal file date and time and to change Exif?

Regards

Stefan

Hi Stephan,

You can preserve the original file-system timestamp with the '-P' option,
or set it from the EXIF information with an argument like
"-filemodifydate<datetimeoriginal".
