Getting the right timestamp on a photo

Hello,
I am trying to figure out which is the right field to get the "Date Taken" value for a photo, from the API.
When i am doing a heavy album get, i am getting two fiels on each photo, Date and LastUpdated. But it seems like the Date field is the date uploaded.
Hence it looks like to get DateTaken, there is no way other than downloading the image and checking the Exif field.
Am i missing something?
thanks!

Oh, i forgot about getEXIF. That would be an extra call, but is that the best and only way ?
thanks!
