Please provide "Sort by capture date" which can be retrieved from EXIF data. Files that do not have EXIF capture date+time sort these at the beginning (when ascending has been chosen). Sort these on file date and perhaps also make some sort selection overlay (similar to as is selected) in the file list pane.

That would be the exif DateTimeOriginal field or Xmp.photoshop.DateCreated

This is not the same as EXIF DateTimeDigitized (Xmp.xmp.CreateDate) That information can be very different if the image was scanned as opposed to digitally photographed.

Workaround is to use exiftool to set the file date to the "capture" date.

 exiftool '-filemodifydate<createdate' *.jpg
