Apple Photos not using the date taken
I am looking to switch from Lightroom to Photos. I have lots of old photos that I want to add into the Photo's Library. I started adding them but noticed the order was wrong when I looked further into this I can see that Photo's is not seeing the meta data of the file and using the files created date as was mentioned in another post. The date shown in photos is in 2015 when it should be in 2008.
These photos have been moved around a far bit so I thought they may have lost this info. I used exiftool to inspect the EXIF data and there is the correct DateTimeOriginal and CreateDate values but photos is not use this. Lightroom is also showing the data correctly.
What value is photos expecting so it can show the correct date?
