Renaming DV image files to include the date they were taken.

[thief_]

I have around 200 still images which I have taken over the last year using my Sony DV camera.

They are in folders which are named by date, eg:

Media\Images\2003-12-25\XMas with the kids.jpg

The folders are created when the images are downloaded, and are named according to the download date. But the images could be from over 6 months ago, thus making the date illogical.

I can view details regarding each shot, especially the date the shot was taken, by right-clicking individual files, and looking at the Summary tab.

My question is, how can I rename my image files using the "Date Shot Taken" field of the image's summary-property?

Most of the utils I have which do mass-renaming, can use the Create Date, but that comes up as the download date, not the date the shot was taken.

Any suggestions?

PieStudo will do what you want but it is not free. However I think they have 2 seperate free programs that will work, PieStudio combines functionaliy of both in one app. Paid the price and love it. Have all in family using it to load/rename digital pics from various camers/storage medea using camera date as file name. Must properly set camera
