I have added the code to the Code snippets page

Using the Sample Project, the above returns 0 for every image. Adding one of my own images though returns 1471264963000

aoM = AlbumObjectMetadata.getInstance(currentObject.getFile());
System.out.println(aoM.getRealCameraDate());

Simple question: how can I use getRealCameraDate() to retrieve the camera date, or zero if there isn't one, from the currentObject?
