Good point with the installation (even though Homebrew isn't actually complicated from a user perspective), found out that Exiftool can be directly installed as a PKG as well.

@nohillside Good point. Though, against that, Homebrew has shedloads of useful packages, and after you’ve been through the pain once, finding and adding further ones is really quick and easy.

Homebrew doesn't require the full Xcode. Rather it uses the Xcode Command Line Tools which are installed when first needed. But, I do agree that Photo Date Adjustor is the right tool and answers the question.
