Photo or Picture Date Taken Search

Question

Hi All!
Does anyone know if there's a way to search a bunch of pictures for Date Taken (which is NOT Date Created, as that's the date the pics were imported to the computer)?
Thanks in advance, PuterPro

Answer 1

Depending on the EXIF data in the picture file you can probably find it by text. Have a look at this example:

As you can see the date taken information is shown as Original date. You could therefore search for the file by entering the information in Containing text, e.g.

Containing text: REGEX "Original date:.*2012:01"
