Note that this is NOT the same thing as the conventional timestamp of the file creation date/time that we see in a disk directory listing. NLE's that are aware of BWF files are able to align the first sample's audio timecode to the the editing timeline during import. The kicker, though, is the still image file - I'm not aware of any NLEs that read its creation timestamp and use it to control placement on the timeline. And also note Marco was talking about using a wet-chemistry, film-based SLR. The exposure date/time if it could be recorded wouldn't be the file creation date timestamp when digitizing the film to jpegs anyway.

Oh I didn't get it being cellulose film instead of digital sensor pictures. Him saying 35mm made me think of "full-frame" digital format, not of film. I think it goes nowhere shooting analog, then scan these pictures only to arrive into a PC and then on HD-TV.
Shoot analog then project analog slides - maybe yes.
For that, we need to talk a projector that has a clock reader inside. What are the analog projectors' clock/time capabilities?
I've seen these kinds of analog slideshows and they're impressive but there's a human advancing the slides based on how s/he hears the played music. The music was not recorded from the scene, but some offline music. Still it was impressing.
Makes think of 1930's movie projections with a piano player behind the scenes trying to keep rhythm as the action unfolds :-)
