Using Change timestamp window I cannot modify Exif Date Taken as I want, because when I select this date to change, "Use EXIF data en time when avaliable" is inactive.
I think it is a misfeature, it doesn't allow to correct for daylight savings time if camera clock is not adjusted.

It's by design, so you want to assign Exif date taken with other EXIF date??

Yes.
As I wrote, it is useful when you forget to change in-camera clock when winter/summer time is changing.
Also if you travel to another time zone and forget to set your camera clock.

I support.

The feature is now implemented in beta 1... but with 'EXIF Date modified' whereas my camera uses 'EXIF Date taken' and 'EXIF Date digitized'...

I think it should be 'EXIF Date taken' as default for 'Date to change'...

I've just made a draft for a new dialog design in topic "Change timestamp: Layout" which might solve this problem.

Verified fixed in Beta 2. Now, all EXIF and file dates can be changed. Very good, Pierre.
