Wrong Time Assigned When Importing

I have been following the threads on this problem for some months now. 
Has anyone come up with a fix yet?

In my own case, I think I have narrowed down the cause.  I live in time 
zone UTC -7.  My camera (Panasonic TZ3) has no time zone function, all 
you can do is set the time and date.  When I import the pictures into 
F-Spot, 7 hours are added to the time assigned in the database. 
Obviously, this time difference is being taken from my computer's time 
settings.  It would seem the solution would be to have F-Spot not try to 
correct the time, or if you wanted to get fancy, have an option to turn 
that feature on and off, and make it adjustable.  At the moment, the 
only option we have is to go to each picture and manually adjust the 
time by subtracting 7 hours.  This is a tedious affair when one takes 
lots of pictures.
