Storing Photos after a Vacation
The problem: you return home from a vacation and took a lot of pictures. But not with a single camera. But you now want all images in one place, in chronological order. Here is what to do.
- Get the images from the cameras using PTP or MassStorage copying. Store the photos into separate directories (
sony
andcanon
- photograph the clock of the more precise camera (Sony) with the other camera (Canon)
- Use exiftool to read the EXIF date of that picture and compare it with the photographed time
- Adjust the time of the photos (Canon) to match the clock of the more precise clock (Sony):
# substract 5 minutes and 2 seconds from all dates: exiftool -AllDates-='0:0:0 0:05:02' -overwrite_original canon/*.JPG
- Move Canon Panorama Images to a sepearate dir
mkdir pano mv canon/ST* pano/
- Create an output directory
out
- Rename all files to their creation date and move them to the out directory
exiftool '-FileName<DateTimeOriginal' -d out/%Y%m%d-%H%M%S-canon%%-c.%%e canon/*.JPG exiftool '-FileName<DateTimeOriginal' -d out/%Y%m%d-%H%M%S-sony%%-c.%%e sony/*.JPG
