You can insert the time and date onto a photo by using software that will superimpose that onto the image.
Many of today's digital cameras will not include a time stamp, which includes the day and time a photo was taken, on the images taken with the camera. Though some camera models may include this feature, many Sony models do not. As such, those seeking to add a time stamp to their photos will need to use a special program that will superimpose the time and date on the photo for viewing and printing. Programs such as Visual Photo Time Stamp and Boxoft Batch TimeStamp to Photo are examples of software that will superimpose time stamps on your photos.
Instructions
1. Download the program. Perform a "Google" search of the software you wish to download to identify the program's developer. Avoid downloading the software from free software sites, and download the program directly from the developer. Visual Photo Time Stamp is developed by Dts8888, for example, and so should be downloaded directly from their website.
2. Install the program. If you have a Mac, open your computer's "Finder" menu from the dock, and click "Applications." Windows users must click the "Start" menu and select "Programs." Find the program you have downloaded in your "Applications" or "Programs" menu, if you have a Mac or PC, respectively. Click the program you have downloaded to open the installer and follow the on-screen instructions.
3. Open your photo project. Depending on the program, use the "Add" or "New" button to import a new photo to be time-stamped into the program. The program will import the time and date information, and you will be able to view it on your photo. You can now adjust the format of the time and date if you desire. Save the file to your desired location on your computer once you have finished.
