I was loading up the pictures from the Halloween Party from a couple weeks ago, and I realized that with the time change for Daylight Savings Time, I need to change the time on my cameras.I don't know if they have cameras yet that will change their time for DST but if your camera doesn't then you should go grab it and make sure it has the right time.
When your camera takes a picture, it records the date and time that the picture was taken in the image file. Most of the time, having the time be off by one hour is not a big deal. However, the pictures on my site are usually sorted by the timestamp embedded (EXIF) in the image file. In the past I have put pictures together from different cameras in one set and if the cameras are not synchronized, I'll have pictures that were taken an hour apart mixing together.
