Why Does My Camera Not Know What Time It Is?
This drives me nuts. Some idiot in DC decided we need to change our clocks twice a year and everything goes to h3ll just as often. I have to change the clocks on the ovens, on the microwave, in my truck, and heaven forbid I forget to change them in my cameras.
So now, I'm out shooting a house fire today with two cameras. One is on Daylight Savings Time and one isn't. Great. So now, I can't get the files to sort into the correct order without updating the EXIF data and what I really don't get is this - why does my camera not know what time it is? My cell phone knows. Jennifer even has a watch that synchronizes through the air somehow with the NIST time signal. I kid you not. So why doesn't my camera know what time it is? Why can't I hold the two cameras together and push a button to sync their time signals? Canon----Are you listening?
