I really recommend the use of the AgPifoJ Ülugin for photo-mapping and 
not use of the JOSM build-in functionality.

For Windows I recommend the use of Geosetter (www.geosetter.de) to get 
the coordinates into the EXIF data of pictures. This is not open source 
SW but at least Freeware w/o additional advertisement or something like 
that (no crippleware, no nagware, no ....).
Geosetter has a lot of user-friendly ways to get the synchronization of 
the pictures with the GPS track(s). Within the last year I made a lot of 
good experience with the program and didn't have real severe crashes of 
the programm or damaged photos.
And: Geosetter not only supports Google to show the GPS traces and 
location of the pictures but also OSM maps (OSMarender and Mapnik)!


Best regards,
Michael.
