Camera clock
Now that summer time is here for those of us who remembered to put the clocks forward, do you bother changing the time in your camera(s), or are you happy for it/them to be 1 hour wrong for the next 7 months?
No, I'm retired! 
What difference does the time make!

yep same here
It can be important if you use tracking S/W on your phone and try to match to a photoshoot later. My 5D4 has GPS so I have no issue and it add the GPS info to the EXIF so LR knows when/where each image was taken. For other cameras I have with no GPS I can just record a tracking log on the phone while on a shoot. This can be imported to LR which then matches the photos to location by time. Thus you need the time to be fairly accurate. You might ask why bother. For some people knowledge of the the precise location a shot was taken can be important. It is not for me and I only collected the GPS info out of interest. Since I am now using a Sony A6600 which does not have GPS, I have not worried too much but do add the location using the map in LR but only roughly. So, if I have done a shoot at say Windsor Great Park, I would assign just one location in the park to all shots. Just checked on the A6600 and the time is correct (Daylight saving is On). More annoying is the fact that my Cassio radio watch has not updated.

The facility is there on my A6500 and actually on most cameras I've owned, including compacts. But I'm never sure which country's "daylight saving" is involved. The term itself is American, I think.
I've therefore chosen to keep it turned off and do it manually.
But I have it turned on in the car and that seems to work OK.
Never even thought about that, not that it matters to me any.

The A6600 records your area relating to time zone. So it knows I am on London time and thus does update automatically and correctly. I expect your A6500 is the same. There are times that I want to know the time I took a shot so would prefer it was not an hour out.
