OK, so I finally had some time to look into this a bit more. The images in question are Canon CR2 RAW images from a 5DmkII camera. They were originally geotagged with HoudaGeo and imported on my MacBook Pro. I've used this method quite a bit but not with iPhoto - I usually use Lightrooom but my wife wanted me to make a book so I also imported the images into iPhoto 9. Lightroom saw the time stamps correctly. In iPhoto, the "Original" times were all about 6 hours earlier - not exactly 6 hours, but 6 hours minus a random number of seconds. The "Digitized" times were correct in iPhoto. I exported one image from iPhoto and used Graphic Converter to look at the EXIF data - and the "Original" date/time fields are correct. I took the exported file and imported it into iPhoto on my MacPro, where the photos have never been imported. The time fields were correct on the MacPro. I then took the exported photo (with a new name) and re-imported it into iPhoto on my MacBook Pro, and again the time was correct. I then looked into the iPhoto package file on my Mac Book Pro (where the time is incorrect for the image)and duplicated the image and moved it to the desktop. I looked at the EXIF data and again the time is correct in the file. Finally, I looked at the original files after they were geotagged but prior to the original iPhoto import, and again the EXIF time field is correct. In all of the EXIF time fields (that I can see with Graphic Converter), I cannot see where iPhoto derives the incorrect time displayed in the "Original" field. Something must have happened during the original import to corrupt the files but I don't know what happened. It seems like I could correct this by re-importing all of the photos but the images are not part of a large book so I don't want to risk having to re-do the book. Does anyone know if I just re-import the images with the same file names, will iPhoto replace the corrupt files? Will doing so in any way affect the book containing the images? Anyone have any idea where iPhoto is deriving the incorrect time if all of the EXIF time fields have the correct time?
Thanks
