Phil,
Thank you very much, I wouldn't have spotted it :-) I'm not familiar with Perl, but I got the gist of the pattern matching you propose and it works.
I found a peculiar quirk though. When using the first command from my first post the DateTimeOriginal of those fotos is reported correctly as 0000:00:00 00:00:00. When I test with
exiftool -if "$exif:DateTimeOriginal =~ /00000000_000000/" -r -s -s -s -FileModifyDate -d "%Y%m%d_%
+H%M%S" DIR
nothing comes up. It turns out that, for some reason, the formatting of 0000:00:00 00:00:00 results in 00000002_000000 instead of 00000000_000000. I cannot tell if it is due to the obviously poor EXIF data or my lack of understanding of exiftool.
By the way, thank you for your suggestion about -directory tag, but it got there due to the needs of the naming scheme and with your help (see thread 4243).
