EXIF DateTimeOriginal timezone does not match MediaFile.getDate()

I have a Mini 3 with an RC-N1 controller connected to an Android device and I am located in the PDT (UTC-7:00) timezone.

As a test, if I set the timezone on the Android to EDT (UTC-4:00) EXIF data from the images taken with the drone will have the EDT timezone in the DateTimeOriginal EXIF tag. However the MediaFile.getDate() returned from the SDK (KeyNewlyGeneratedMediaFile) at the time the image is created returns time stamps in the PDT (UTC-7:00) timezone.

Is the SDK getting the time zone information from somewhere else?

  The created time of the photos obtained by the SDK is the time when the drone pushes them.
