Writing to the file shouldn’t cause any problems, as it’s written to a known portion of the metadata file header and doesn’t affect the raw image data itself. For proprietary raw files, most other metadata is written to an XMP sidecar file, however the updated capture time can be written back to the raw file itself. The updated capture time is stored in the catalog, and if you write to the files using Ctrl-S (Windows) / Cmd-S (Mac), it will be written to the metadata of the file too. If you make a mistake, the original time stamp is stored in the catalog until the photo is removed, and you can return to that original time stamp by using Metadata menu > Revert Capture Time to Original. For example, if you’ve selected 3 photos and you set the correct time for the middle one to 16:26, that photo will be the ‘known-time’ photo identified in step 2, and the others will be adjusted by the same time difference. It won’t set them all to the same date and time, and that applies whether your active (most-selected) photo is the first in the series or not. While not entirely obvious, when changing the time stamp on a series of photos, the active (most-selected) photo will be set to the time you enter in step 7, and the rest of the photos will be adjusted by the same incremental time difference.
