Use original filename while renaming

Hi,

how can I use the original filename, when renaming a file?

Currently I use

exiftool -overwrite_original_in_place '-FileName<CreateDate' -d %Y%m%d-%H%M%S%%-c.%%e IMG_3390.jpg

to get 20080302-134126.jpg, but I'd like to get 20080302-134126-IMG_3390.jpg

Thanks

Hi Cocker,

Try this:

exiftool -overwrite_original_in_place '-FileName<${CreateDate}-$FileName' -d %Y%m%d-%H%M%S%%-c IMG_3390.jpg
