"Clip Time" not coming through properly from P2 Cards

Question

Hi,
I'm using Log and Transfer to bring across video shot yesterday. I setup a custom Name Preset to include the time the clip was shot at. The clips aren't coming across with the actual time they were shot though. The first few clips were shot around 7:30AM and are coming across as "01-30-09", which I'm assuming means 1:30 and 9 seconds. I checked the time on the camera (HPX-170) and it is set properly, but the timezone wasn't... it was set at 00:00, but should have been -06 :00.
The workflow so far:
1. Shot on HPX-170 to two 64GB A series P2 cards
2. Used Pansonic's P2CMS to transfer clips from camera to external hard drive (does anyone else use this software? It seems to do a good job, but is the ugliest thing ever. Any other options?)
3. Using Log and Transfer to bring clips from external drive to internal RAID.
Here's the Clip metadata:
<CreationDate>2010-09-29T07:30:09+00:00</CreationDate>
<LastUpdatePerson>stevemebs</LastUpdatePerson>
<LastUpdateDate>2010-09-29T16:04:57-06:00</LastUpdateDate>
It seems like maybe the problem is that the time zone isn't set properly on the camera, but is set properly on my computer (-06:00) so the clips were automatically adjusted to local time. Is there any way to adjust this on the clips so they come in with the proper times? Without going through and editing the metadata on all 50 clips preferably.

Answer 1

I use ShotPut Pro. It not only will automatically create the folders, with names, and backup the cards when you insert them, but it will also do a data verification. All automated.
After you make the disk image, do you use Find & Transfer to transfer the clips directly from the P2 cards in the camera? (I'm assuming you can't transfer from the .dmg.)
NO NO NO! From the backup. Because you have those Unique file names, those names are your REEL numbers. So you can track the footage.
