Lightroom Classic doesn’t always adjust time correctly

I can confirm that this bug still exists. If you change the capture time of a photo in Lightroom Classic it may not do it correctly. The time was wrong on my camera and I had to change 249 images this evening. As I went through them later, I noticed a few were out of order, when sorting by “capture time”.

When the time is changed, there are three fields that need to be modified:

  • Date Time Original
  • Date Time Digitized
  • Date Time

Most of the time all three are changed, but sometimes, only the first one is.

Attempts to change the time failed again and again, so I changed the sort order to “Filename” which works just fine, but it’s annoying me that there are bunches of photos in today’s photos that have jumped through time.

Anyone figured out how to fix this?

The waterfall of light

It was a very calm evening when we visited Mullinhassig last, and when I spotted the light coming through the leaves at the top of this photo I loved how it contrasted with the dark of the water below.

The Odeon of Herodes Atticus

The Odeon of Herodes Atticus is built on the slopes of the Acropolis. It must be stunning to view a stage performance there, but on this sunny afternoon it was empty, except for some people setting up cables, probably for a performance later that day.

Hidden History

A car parked on the pavement of a street at 190 Leof. Ionias in Athens, Greece. It’s half covered by sheets of plastic and cloth, but looking at Google Street View it appears to be there since at least 2022. Other cars have occupied this spot since at least 2009. That’s how far back that Street View goes.
