The only way to keep the original data intact is to copy the photos and have a geotagged and original set

Yes .. it saves at midnight local time .. don't know it that includes daylight saving or not .. I'm not awake then, or if I am I'm certainly not looking at the GPS. I don't recall having to switch the GPS to local time .. I think as it knows where it is it just uses the local time.
GPS time link to explanation in much detail .. http://www.oc.nps.edu/oc2902w/gps/timsys.html
Don't have one of them cameras with GPS.. would make it interesting crossing a time zone .. the next photo could be taken at a time before the last photo

I've also chosen to turn off the fancy daylight savings adjustment on my camera as this *also* messes up the matching between photos and gpx tracks. Less is more in this case.

I saw the track truncated but once I realised I found I could join the split parts together using mapsource on the computer.
