Originally posted by Sandy Hancock I used to shoot live music professionally, often with several bodies going at once. If the time stamps on each image weren't right, editing the final album was a nightmare.
So yeah, I set the time and date regularly. To the second. Old habits die hard.
Its the same on canoe trips. After a few weeks in the bush you don't remember where each shot was taken. We often take 3 or 4 cameras. One has a GPS, the others are kept in sync with it. When we say a picture was taken on a specific lake, we know 100%, by looking at the time on the exposure and comparing with exposures taken with the K-1 and GPS.
Before this process, I had trip reports posted with incorrect locations. And just like the Pentax forum, if you say something wrong on the canoe forums, 10 people will correct you.
