Namexif for Windows

What is Namexif?

Namexif replaces camera-generated filenames with dates and times read from photo EXIF data or video timestamps. Its default year-first format makes alphabetical filename sorting follow the capture sequence, which is useful when combining pictures from an event or several cameras.

You can build a custom name from year, month, day, hour, minute and second tags, and include the original filename. A positive or negative time shift compensates for differences between camera clocks. When several files share the same timestamp, Namexif adds a suffix to distinguish their names. An eight-character ISO 9660 naming option is also available.

The date-based workflow depends on the recorded metadata: it does not establish the true capture time when a camera clock was wrong. Use the time-shift option when the offset is known. Digicamsoft lists Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8 and 10; Windows 11 compatibility is not confirmed by that publisher page.
