Time Change Fall back 2025

[Marilynne]

If you're supposed to, we're on the new time now!

Fall back one hour!

Don't forget to change ALL your cameras too!!

Thanks for the reminder.

Set all my clocks forward an hour last night. That's what being dyslexic will do for you. Set them all back two hours this morning.

Thank you once again Marilynne. I mentioned this task on a railroad forum a year of two ago and some guy thought it was dumb. I disagreed. Most of us who enjoy photography shoot with care and precision. Why wouldn't we also want to take a moment two times a year to be sure our date and time settings are as they should be? Some day our image files will perhaps end up in the hands of a future generation and this kind of thing will matter.

It might matter if you're doing a photo contest and all photos must be taken within a specific time frame.

The only time it's made a palpable difference for me was when I looked up the time info on some sunrise beach photos. It had been a while since I'd been to this beach, and you needed to plan for sunrise at a specific segment of outgoing tide height, so I was trying to correlate a previous trip with upcoming tides and sunrise times. It's rather disappointing to get up at 4:00 AM, drive an hour and a half, and find that the tide is too high to get on the beach when the sun is coming up, or the trees you want pictured in the surf are high and dry. The stars align about once every two weeks for this.

Off to change camera clocks now. Hope I don't fall over while falling back on the time. Thanks for the reminder folks.

Edit.... Done and I didn't fall over. My win for the the day!

You only need to uncheck the Daylight Savings box, like on my car's infotainment center.

I've done the same with trains @Clovishound, looking to see at what time a train passed by the last time I visited an area. It helps me better the odds of finding a train.

Checked my D5100 last night. It tends to slip several minutes in six months, so I always correct the clock while I'm at it.
