Well, yes and no. If you look at that standard Time/Date structure,
(Gaud this is getting into the weeds), if the software is using it
correctly it's stores UTC a flag and an offset to get the local time. I
assume that the OS used by the camera includes a Time/Date object. I
also assume it stores the Timestamp in the "standard" manner. So yes it
stores the data in UTC.

Yes, I know. That makes it not UTC.

It pretty much is on UTC. The current time zone is just an offset based on the
home city.

If I had a camera that had gps I would just let it record everything as UTC
rather than try to account for different places. It makes life easier - one
less thing to clutter my head with. In fact even without gps I think I just
leave them on UTC.

Stan, your explanation of GPS sounds logic, thks.
The GPS is also used when shooting ASTRO, but I did not try that yet.
I will check with Ricoh/Pentax why there would be no DST timetable for the
Netherlands. As they should know US could be first but Netherlands are second!
Anyhow, I will not wait for the software update, but change the time manually.
Greetz, Jos
