--- Comment #2 from Jo Scheuchenpflug <schjo at gmx.de> ---
My camera just supports jpeg files. so no idea whether different behavior with
raw images.

I cannot follow your sentence "we write .... current date". What do you want to
tell me? what do you mean by document name? is it the file name? 
concerning jpeg operations: I do not modify the files in any way at import
time. even no copyright entry. 

To make it clear: I would like to have the date and time given to the imported
picture file the same as the date and timestamp when the picture has been
taken. Otherwise sorting by date (especially if several cameras took pictures
(and film sequences!) at an event cannot be done reliable.
And I have checked now closer: beginning 01.10.2015 digikam started to have a
different behavior. Previous to that date (digikam 4.6.0 as stated in EXIF
Information under Processing Software) all the files got the time stamp of the
shooting time.
Unfortunately there is a time area where following images do not have the
Processing Software entry. (another bug?). Latest images are correct again
concerning the Processing Software value.
