Windows (non command-line) version of jhead?
My camera has sporadic loss of clock (VERY annoying...), often
resulting in the dates being wrong for a file's EXIF and time/date stamp. I've found the exifer program (http://www.exifer.friedemann.info/) to be great for easily modifying a file's EXIF data, and the jhead program (http://www.sentex.net/~mwandel/jhead/) has been great for things like setting a file date/time stamp to match the exif information, once that's corrected. The problem is that jhead is a command line program and it's a tad unwieldy to use that way. Wondering if anyone knows of a similar program that runs in Windows, rather than command line. jhead does a lot, but my chief use of it is to set timestamps to match exif. |

If so, there is likely a button cell in your camera that has gone south. Thought I'd mention it if you would rather just fix the root problem.

There's so many programs. Here's one for $20 with trial:

On second thought, I'm not sure that one does what you need after
re-reading your question. Lots of EXIF programs for various purposes. paul wrote: There's so many programs.
