Logging Camera Location Data

You can keep a record of where the camera was taken by using location

information acquired from GPS satellite signals over a period of time. Daily

location and time data is logged to a file, separate from image data. Log files

can be reviewed on the camera (

=

43

), and with the software (

=

21

),

you can use log files to follow the route taken with the camera on a map.

Note that the GPS logger will reduce battery life, because some power is

consumed even when the camera is off. Charge the battery as needed, or

keep a spare charged battery with you.

Geotagging Images While Shooting

The still images and movies you shoot can be geotagged, automatically

adding latitude, longitude, and elevation information. You can review the

recorded location information on the camera (

=

103

). Using the software

(

=

21

), you can also view the locations on a map, with the still images

and movies shown next to them.

Activate GPS.

z

Follow steps 1 – 2 in “Using GPS

Function” (

The still images and movies you shoot

are now geotagged, and you can review

the location information as described in

“GPS Information Display” (

=

103

).

In addition to geotagging your shots, you can also tag shots with the
shooting date and time (

=

103

) in UTC format (

=

44

).

Geotagging applies the initial camera location and shooting date and time, as

acquired when you begin shooting a movie.

For digest movies (

=

49

), geotagging applies the initial camera location and

shooting date and time as acquired for the first movie that day.
