Filter by Capture time?

Does anyone know if it is possible to filter photos in Lightroom by 'capture time '?

I want to start working on a blog that deals with the difficulties and spinoffs to photograph landscapes during the mid-day.  It would be extremely useful I might have Lightroom filter 10 000 + images in my library for me show that those taken between 11:00 and 14:00, for example.  Any ideas as to how this could be done?  This is not part of Lightroom features, is maybe some kind of plugin?

Just to clarify, I know that I can sort by capture time, but my experiences seem to show that in sorting by capture time, there is automatically a sort of first level by Date of Capture, which means that this method doesn't really work in the way I described above.  My goal is to filter the entire catalog and show photos taken between two times of day, but without regard to date.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

* I guess I should add that I am using LR5.

  • Smart collection for photos with the same capture time

    Hello

    I wish to have a smart collection for the photos I took to make HDR.

    These photos were taken of view/captured sequentially, therefore, most probably have almost the exact same time (perhaps even within the same second).

    -Is it possible to create a smart collection for these photos?

    (I know the collection could also include pictures I didn't mean to, but even when most of the potential HDR photo would be there...)

    Thank you!

    Boolis.

    A good way to make this selection for HDR/Pano is to select all the potential picture in library/grid and then use the command "Auto-pile by Capture time.  You can then place them in collections.

  • Sorting by Capture time?

    New digital photography I take seems to be perfectly managed by LightRoom 2015 CC, there is a time to Capture poster and when I sort a file or a collection of these 'capture time' it works as I expect, but when I take an old photo taken on an old camera or scanned recently or years ago that I'll meet serious problems trying to associate a date for the old photo and then have sort correctly and I have been reading and browsing for hours and have found no clues other than that stores Lightroom several dates and times with a photo I am sometimes (sometimes only) able to see in the EXIF metadata Preset and they understand :

    Date time Original

    Date time digitized

    Date time

    (see: Lightroom files can contain several Dates "Julieanne Kost's Blog of ")

    I don't see an easy way to change these fields, and they tend to "come and go" when you browse the different files with the same "EXIF Preset' selected. However, I can edit and sort by (yay!), called the Capture time, that would be great if it worked. But unfortunately edition the using metadata to capture Date/time / command menu to change the Capture time doesn't seem to change how this picture sorts out when 'Capture time' is selected for the type.

    The only other option triage is called 'Added order', which is perhaps one of the three metadata fields that I list above?

    It seems to me that someone above Adobe worked ENOUGH SACRAMENT HARD to make it so difficult! ::) or I have a damaged catalog or user, me, is missing some basic notion. In any case, I hope that everyone who reads this will forgive my attempts rather feble to hide my frustration in this. There is a lot of work to change the timestamp date 22 thousand pictures, especially when you have already done in Photoshop elements Organizer and little if any that is deferred and appartently needs to be redone. So yes, I'm frustrated, so forgive me and help me understand what is happening, refer me to something I should have read before starting this project, give me homework, I have a Lynda.com account, just please tell me not concerning the bug well documented with metadata in video editing, this is not what it is. Please do not give me great detailed explanations of the three options to adjust the Date/time of Capture on selected images, I've lived all this. I just need to know how to change a date field for a photograph that Lightroom will allow me to sort by and I don't like that it is or if I lose any reference to another date the file is trying to remember (I do not remember when the photo was scanned). And please excuse my tone! I'm really a fan of the product, but he left me speechless on this problem! ::) Thanks for the advice, suggestions and patience! : )

    Huge thanks to johnrellis and Just Shoot Me for pointing me in the right direction, I think I'll answer my own question since I think I know roughly what the problem was and what to do about it, if you use a Mac like me.

    (1) it is primarily a problem with scans, I received from ScanCafe.com, they have done a GREAT job but left something weird in there with metadata.

    (2) I went to the app store for Mac and bought this: Mac App Store - PhotoMill: batch convert, edit metadata, rename, resize, watermark and more

    (3) make sure that you understand about the file formats and how LightRoom manages metadata. In my case, I deal with JPGs and have LightRoom updated all the metadata automatically. If you are not familiar with this aspect of LightRoom, stop here and do some reading, you'll see why if you read on.

    (4) with closed LightRoom, I opened all the images of ScanCafe and essentially put the capture date, creation date, and modification date for the desired date, since I care anything else then will forgive for not work this up yet, but if you're like me and you have a digitalized picture just don't care when you analyzed the darn thing! Why change the date Mod? Because I don't know what I'm doing, so I just changed it, omniscient mod date will reset to the date I do other changes to this file, no biggie, I took just a shotgun approach because I was frustrated.

    (5) very important, once you're done editing all stamps date and time of all the images of your bad conduct, launch LightRoom and select all the images you just edited the metadata, then right-click on one of them and select metadata / reading

    (6) it warns you that you go to the wire of the writing of metadata in the catalog for these images, which shouldn't be a problem, because you have read step 3 above and you know that all the necessary metadata has already been written in the files. If you're good. Say very well and let it read disc and begin to sort correctly.

    Thank you all, sincerely. Drinks on me at the World Famous Magic Castle in Hollywood for your help johnrellis and Just Shoot Me tell you when.

    Your friend for life,

  • Sort by capture time does not


    I looked at the responses to similar topics, and most of the problems had something to do with video files. Here's my problem, I have recently updated my Lightroom CC. When I imported 3 Lexar 16 GB cf cards pro using a Lexar workflow Tower, all imported correctly. Which means only one card at a time. I used 2 cameras Nikon D700 separate shooting only RAW files. When I hit 'Sort by capture time' nothing has happened. Files begin with 'D7A' and 'D7B"to keep a tab on what camera which takes snapshots. However, LR is now alone, sorting by file name and no time. I double checked to make sure that the time stamps are correct. I'm on Windows 7 has anyone else seen this behavior? Any suggestions? Many thanks - Harry

    I never had this problem '' IF '' the time has been set correctly on both devices. Check the cameras to see if they are turned off in a few minutes or more. Not if they are out of time, but if a camera is set to 12:00 and the other on 12:05 or 01:00.

  • Capture time lose fractions of a second

    Hello

    I use LR 5.7, Camera Raw 8.7, on a Mac OSX version 10.10 and have noticed that recently I can sort is more correctly on time to capture images.  When I look at the XMP file, I find that the capture time is always recorded with the decimal part, the value 00 considering that in older versions were maintained, tenths and hundredths

    It's very annoying when shooting sport with motor drive I'm getting lots of images 7 or 8 who all seem to have the same time, so I can't count on being correct - even with filename sorting order is not good for me, as I often shoot with two bodies.

    Does anyone know if there are plans to restore it?

    Thank you

    Chris

    I submitted a bug report: Lightroom: change the Capture time keeps the fractions of a second.  Head over to this topic and add your vote.

    If you encounter this problem, again, you can use the Exiftool free to adjust the date/time outside of LR.

  • Auto-pile by wrong capture time

    Hello

    I have 28 photographs taken sequentialy but not at the same intervals; they are part of a collection. I proceed to select all the and choose 'stack automatic stacking by capture... time. "in the context menu and choose the time between battery 0:01:00 (one minute)

    However I find the time to capture photos in a stack is more than 1 minute!  For example, here is the photo capture times in one package:

    20:19:12, 20:19:25, 20:19:43, 20:20:24, 20:21:19, 20:21:45

    We see that the time to capture between members of this stack are not less than a minute. What is going on?

    Thank you

    Juan dent

    You can go through and manually stack them, but I don't think that LR built based on autostacking offer a way to automate this, otherwise than by the timing of the interval.

  • Two cameras will synchronize together to help sort by Capture time

    Hello ~

    I recently used a second shooting game for the first time at a wedding I shot, and I tried in vain to get them to be sorted in Lightroom using Capture time. I changed the time to match already and it worked, but when I sort these photo by capture time, it only sorts camera 1 hour of capture, followed by camera 2. It not sync the time of two cameras together. Does anyone have advice? I scoured the internet for the answer to this all day today and yesterday and can not get help!Screen shot 2013-09-29 at 3.55.39 PM.png

  • I can't LR5.0 to change the Capture time

    When I try to set a specific capture time, it behaves exactly like LR4.x but nothing CHANGES after hitting 'change '.   Anyone else have this problem?

    Edit Capture Time.png

    The top left of the screen progress bar appears briefly as if changes are made, but when go back to change, again, the capture time remains unchanged.

    PROBLEM SOLVED.   After being frustrated with more attempts, I left LR5 and then restarted, it.   After having done that, I saw NO other problems and am able to change the date/time of capture as expected.   (Maybe my hardware is bad driving... will have to look.)

  • You will have to give the value of the filter at run time condition.

    Hi experts

    I have a requirement in which I need to give the value of the filter at run time, for example Project_code = "XYZ"
    The XYZ value should be given at run time. How can achieve us?

    Thanks and greetings
    Frank

    Hi Jos,

    1. create a PROJECT_CODE to say as alphanumeric variable, as non-persistent data type and use it as a filter in your mapping.

    2 drag and drop the variable twice in your package make that as a declared variable and in the second stage that do like Variable refresh then in step 3 of your interface.

    3 generate a script and executing that give scenario the value you desired, press enter once you have given, otherwise it will not fetch the entry and make sure that the LAST VALUE is DISABLED.

    This way you can give values to the varaible running.

    Thank you

  • How to add image capture times that do not have EXIF?

    Hello

    I have a lot of photo (jpeg high quality) a scanner dia have not all the EXIF data. Lightroom takes the date of creation of file to order, which is annoying. Is it possible to add these photos capture time, since I've known about since they were taken?

    Samuel - on Lightroom 3.6 / win64

    Metadata > command change the Capture time is going to change the time of one or more photos.  Beware that when you change the time of a lot of photos at the same time, LR shifts the time of all those, rather than being at the exact same time.   The Capture time of Exif plugin is also provided for the scanned images.

  • Change the Capture time

    Hello

    I just did an event with 2 cameras and later, I noticed that one of the 2 cameras was about 3 minutes and 25 seconds in front of the other.

    I want to set the capture time because some of the image are out of use now.

    It doesn't seem like Lightroom may deal with this small amount of time, or does it? (LR can do a picture at once, but not in batches, it seems)

    I use version 3.5

    Picture 2.png

    If Lightroom cannot do, any other software could do it in batches?

    Select all the photos that need to be adjusted and change the Capture time.  Select the reduce/enlarge option at specified Date and time and set the corrected time of 03:25 less.  This will adjust all photos of the same relative difference.

    (This is a common confusion about this command option - it is mislabeled).

  • LR is more sorting images by capture time

    Good afternoon

    I have been using Adobe Lightroom 2 with Photoshop CS4 without any problems.

    However, recently I got problems with the order in which to store my images is LR.

    I work in Raw and always start LR. From there on, I open my image in Photoshop before making any adjustment and then by saving in 16-bit PSd or Tiff.

    On the first save the format tiff/psd file normally resides in LR - IE next to the original raw and virtual copy. But now, when I come back to changes in Photoshop psd re-recorded file is moved to the beginning of the Lightroom library. The area around the image is darkened and against it, it has a message 2 0' and the phrase 'the photo is part of a stack.

    I don't understand why he did this and I do not voluntarily battery use. I want to just my images on screen, next to each other for ease of use.

    All my photos are sorted by capture time and even if the files in question are the good time he still does not stop Lightroom to place upstairs, out where it should be.

    It is not a huge problem, but it's quite annoying when you have thousands of images in your catalog, and he has never done before. I restored LR for the default settings, but it did make a difference.

    Please can someone help.

    Right-click on an image in the folder or the collection and select stacking. You have the option to expand or collapse the batteries and also the ability to stack automatically during capture . With auto tack stack by capture time , you can select the time range for auto stacking to apply. It sounds like you have battery auto by capture time together. If you do not want to pile up time at all then this set to 0 seconds.

  • Bug in the Edit Capture time function?

    I have problems with the feature 'Edit Capture time' in LR3. I'm curious to know if others have a similar experience and you have a few suggestions.

    I have lots of old jpg files that have been scanned and stored on my computer over the years. The actual creation date is not correct on most of them. As I was their import in LR3, I tried to change the date and I've been to unexpected behavior when trying to resolve several images at the same time. What I noticed is that LR3 will correctly assign the new time of capture on some images. The rest, he attributes a time completely random capture that could be earlier or later than what I selected years. I have to repeat the process several times on the images with the wrong date before ultimately bringing all to have time to capture that I want.

    To clarify what I mean by several images, I would say that it could be as little as 2, and other times, it's as much as 100 + images. I use the stamp of time in my naming convention for my file names are unique, so I like it to be as accurate as I can get it for stuff I shot with film. I'm running the 64 bit version of LR3 with the latest updates on a computer that is running the 64 bit version of Windows 7. I have 8 GB of memory in my machine. More than enough free disk space. Does anyone have ideas on this?

    Another thing that I will mention, that may just be me not understanding how the feature is supposed to work. I put a time to capture the 25/05/2000 12:00:00 AM for 33 images. After several attempts to get all 33 of them to make the change, I have them sorted by capture time and noticed that after 10 images from the time of 12:00 to 12:00:01. Then it changed to 12:00:02 after another8 images until I finally touched all the images of 33. I thought it was supposed to put them all to the same date and time? Here, because I do not remember the time I took these pictures in 2000, the only reason why it is important is so that the images appear in the correct order when I sort by capture time.

    I didn't know what it is about that online, but I thought I could put it out there and see if I get anything back

    Let me first explain how the "time capture Edit" is supposed to work in LR (the UI is a bit missleading here), and maybe that will shed light on what you are seing:

    • If you have a picture selected and choose "Adjust at a date and time", the time of Imaging is set to the date / time specified.
    • If you have more than one selected image and choose "Adjust to a date and time", time of creation of the most selected image is set to the date / the specified time and time of creation of all other selected images are adjusted by the same amount of time, because the image chosen was to be adjusted to the date / time specified.

    Example:

    Image Date/time before
    Time after
    Change
    Header 4
    More selected 2010-08-01 15:00 2010-08-03 17:00 + 2 days + 2 hours
    2nd selected 2009-01-15 01:25:13 2009-01-17 03:25:13 + 2 days + 2 hours
    3rd selected 2003-12-31 23:00 2004-01-03 01:00 + 2 days + 2 hours

    I guess that what you are writing is based on different (perhaps with 1 second interval) original date/time on your images.

  • Poster photos is no longer the correct capture time

    Until recently, imported JPEG Photos from Lightroom to display the correct time of Capture in the Info Panel. Now the Modification time is displayed. Anyone know why this has changed? JPEGs imported on 15 March 2016 behaved properly, but since March 21, 2016, the Modification time has been posted. I don't remember if we had an update for Photos in March; I am currently using 1.5 pictures. Any advice would be welcome.

    I would look at LR and your workflow export - Photos cares not where representation comes - it uses the EXIF/IPTC data in the photo as it is - LR who puts there, Photos is just the Messenger

  • Which method of capturing time event is more accurate?

    Hello

    I am trying to capture a timestamp of a few kinds whenever data acquisition receives a pulse, I have two methods (attached) which give a slightly different time. One method is to use the 'get time stamp' while the other is to use the 'Clock Tick". The format of the timestamp is okay too, but accuracy is the case, then I wonder what is the most accurate. Also, this VI is probably used on a real-time system (Labview RT) If a VI or the other can be used in real-time so that would not take on the accuracy.

    Thank you

    Precision of timing is not very good with both methods. Timestamp uses the computer clock time.  If you use computers until the time servers is available, you will remember that the computer clocks has derived seconds per day or more.  Long term (weeks to years) timestamp will be, on average, more accurate due to the continual delivery to zero by the time servers. However, maybe you'll see jumps because of these resets.

    The number of cycles is derived from an internal oscillator to the computer.  Because the computer is more concerned about accuracy of timing Quen synchronization logic on the CPU (and devices chips), these oscillators are very stable nor precise.

    The oscillator in your DAQ hardware is almost certainly more stable and undoubtedly more accurate internal clocks available.

    Get the signal of data acquisition as a waveform and use the time t0 that. Before you set up your own atomic clock or clock GPS derived, that it probably the best you can do.  It is also more closely related to the acquisition as opposed to the timt, that data is read from the DAQ hardware.
