Changing Time Zones in Aperture 3

[steviem]

So I'm going through my photos from my visit to my fiancée in New York.

I didn't change the time on my camera, so all of my shots are on GMT. Is there a way to batch edit all of the photos back 5 hours to reflect with the time zone in NY?

It's not necessary, but would be handy if I could do it...

Yes, you can. Select the photo(s) and go to the Metadata menu at the top. Choose to change date and time, and then correct the timestamp. It will only change the timestamp for the current version unless you also check off the box to change the master.

If you select multiple photos, it will change the time of the first one to whatever you choose, and then apply the original interval at which they were taken to all of them.

I use batch change:

I always keep my camera in GMT/UTC and then adjust afterwards when post-processing. It eliminates any potential confusion.

Awesome, thanks! It worked a treat in aperture

Glad I don't have to change the time on the camera...
