Not applicable if there is no exif data in the photo file ... fairly common scenario, I might add, when photos are scanned from film. And besides, even if Exif meta data is present, further hack is needed to put all the photos in a folder with a name based on the date when the photo shoot was started. Combine the above two and jhead is not such a convenience at all. The best solutions I fixed on is to create the appropriately named folder and save all the scans within that. The scanning software allows me to sequentially number the frames that I scan and I just put the ISO date based prefix before that number. -- Please reply to this list only.
