Where is the time stamp on Canon DSLR (Rebel) Footage files?

Question

Hi, looking for the date/time on MVI and THM files that we have from footage shot on Rebel T2is. any ideas?
It looks like date modified is just the date it was transferred. We set the clocks on the cameras to be right, so we want to know when the shots were shot. thanks!

Answer 1

It sounds like you are just looking at the file time and date at the moment, which is the obvious information when you browse though a file directory.



If you right click on your files and then click on the "details" tab, you'll view the extended file header information which should include the time and date the video was taken, as opposed to that specific file's creation time and date.

Answer 2

Use a capable graphics program and check the EXIF info of the JPEG file.

Answer 3

Correct. Also if you just click properties that information should be there. I just checked one of mine and it's there, the date shot and time I shot it.
