--- Comment #13 from digi...@homemp3.dyndns.org ---
Even simpler: I found out that simply touching the file (updating the last
modified timestamp in the file system, using the "touch" command) and then
re-reading the metadata from file gives the file its Camera Creation Time
(which is then correctly taken from the EXIF tag, not the file timestamp).

This seems to imply that Digikam is keeping state about whether a file has
changed since last read, and the "re-read ..." command seems a no-op if the
file modification time is at or before the time when Digikam thinks it read the
file last.

I would expect an explicit "re-read..." operation to re-read, no matter what
the time stamps say.

Above and beyond that, of course, the root cause for the missing Camera
Creation Date needs to be found, particularly after Mike suggested that an
empty Camera Creation Date cannot occur at all (although it does here).
