I do not understand how. The native file systems in *nix-like operating 
systems internally keep the time in UTC anyway. I see the file dates "as 
is", because my copying script sets TZ=UTC0 so that the timestamps in 
the camera's FAT file system will be interpreted correctly. If I want to 
see the file dates in a different time zone, no problem, I just set TZ 
differently before ls. This arrangement avoids any adjustments due to 
daylight saving time or travelling across time zones.
