The website is reporting incorrect timestamps. > https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/_3SnUgJYcD6T8mLG0trADtMTjNZETYmyPJy0liipFm0?full-exif=true > Date and Time (Original) - 2011:11:04 11:07:57 (this is correct) Mine does report 11:07:57 for that picture: http://pixtimeline.com/view/#108873967905176944932/5672736611962285105/1320404877000-1320440406000 > I set the time on the camera properly before taking the photo (the photo > was taken in Spain, but I live in California), and no location > information was provided for the photo. As I understand it the EXIF time for a photo is timezone-less. What the Picasa website is doing is mistakenly "correcting" this timezoneless (i.e. local) timestamp with the browser's current timezone. Which leads to the question what does the camera do with the timestamp and what good is the "Time Zone Offset" information. I don't really know how that helps. To use the timezone offset you'd need to have a UTC timestamp but there isn't once except maybe for GPS. -Philip -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Picasa Web Albums API" group.
