Casio EX-S600 DATE CREATED metatag

I have a Casio EX-S600 point and shoot digital camera. I upload
images from it to my computer (MacBook). When I open a folder of such
images, the column for DATE CREATED is blank. I am able to see the
DATE MODIFIED, which just becomes the time and date I uploaded them
via USB to my computer.

I have tried highlighting an image and pressing COMMAND + I to see its
"Info" (The PC equivalent would be "Properties"). When I do that, I
can see the image size, focal length, exposure time, date last opened,
etc. What is not available, however, is the DATE CREATED. That field
is filled with with two dashes, "--".

My last Casio point and shoot digital camera, the EX-Z4U, always
produced images with a DATE CREATED in the "Info".

QUESTIONS:

1. Why don't the images taken by this camera have information in the
DATE CREATED field?
2. What are my options?


Thanks to anyone who can offer advice. It is much appreciated!

Have you checked that you have the date and time set in the camera?

If you do have the correct date and time in the camera, it may be possible
to get a firmware update for the camera.
