Namexif: Batch rename your digital camera files with the date and time
If you've got a digital camera, we're going to go out on a limb and guess that your computer is littered with files bearing names like DCIM0001.JPG and IMG4527.JPG. Sure, you try to give your photos meaningful labels like "Us at the beach playing catch with our new puppy.jpg" but who has the time?
Namexif won't tell you which images have your adorable new puppy and which show your bratty kid sister. But it will automatically rename most of your images according to the date and time they were taken, which should help you keep your digital photo albums a bit more organized.
As the name suggests, Namexif will only work on images captured using EXIF compliant cameras, but that covers an awful lot of the digital cameras on the market. And if Namexif can't figure out the date and time an image was taken, it just won't rename the picture, so you have nothing to lose by trying it out.
