Use it to shift wrong times caused by wrong clock settings in your camera. To fix invalid date and time information. To fill the correct XMP 'created' date and time tags from other time stamps your files may contain.

The Metadata MechanicThe swiss army knife for setting, manipulating, moving, copying and deleting metadata.

The Metadata AnalystA very helpful app for diagnosing existing metadata in your files.
This tool comes into play when you encounter problems or strange effects with metadata. The Metadata Mechanic reads the metadata in your files and displays detected problems.
