I consider time an image is captured irrelevant. Date yes, that is useful, but time? What does it matter if not documenting an event where time is important for reference purpose. That said tx for the reminder for those to whom it matters :-).

Ah, but I often do go to events like renaissance faires and steampunk events (as a hobby now, but I did get a small amount of $$ being the official photographer and videographer for some small renaissance faires in the past).

If I'm going to a new faire, and I don't know the performers, having the time the photo was taking is useful for matching up what acts were performing at that time to identify them.

I've also occasionally had people ask what day I took pictures and it is useful to have that information.

Since I often shoot with two cameras, it is useful to have the pictures from the two cameras merged together in the stream, so that I can identify event progressions (I rename the files to have the year-month-day-hour-minute prefix first, so that a normal alphabetical sorting will produce the files in order
