Welcome,
First, I would like to apologize for my english.
I have a problem with my Photoshop. When I open any photo from my camera (Panasonic FZ7) and next for example I do any changes and save this photo – so then date in EXIF tag is actual.
I need keep date when I make a foto not do changes in it. How can I lock EXIF tags in Photoshop so that I save it after changes date should be the same when I make them.

With best regards: Witek

Hi Witek,

Try Exifer. It is free, and will allow you to change the dates of your files to match the original exif data.

That is not true, or should not be true. There are two dates: the creation date (which doesn’t change) and the modification date (that does change if you modify the image).

I think you are actually looking at the wrong date.

yeah he’s correct
even copies of my images contain the original shoot date and time

in windows right click the file >check the properties> advanced it shows the camera model, dates etc.

just realized my camera is set on AM instead of PM hehe so the shots we did last nite at 5:00 PM says we shot it in the morning before the sun is even up, totally impossible but ….garbage in, garbage out
