Notes About GPS
• When positioning for the first time, when positioning was unable to be performed for about
2 hours, or after the battery was changed, it takes a few minutes to obtain the position
information. After switching to the shooting application from another application such as the
playback application, it takes a few seconds to obtain the position information.
• Positions of the GPS satellites change constantly. You may not be able to determine the position
or it may take some time depending on your location and the time. To use the GPS feature, use the
camera in an open-air area with few obstacles in the sky. Signal receiving will be smoother if the
GPS antenna (
A1) is facing the sky.
• If the camera needs to be turned off inside an airplane or hospital, set Use GPS satellites in
Location & security in the Android™ platform setting menu ( A91) to off.
• The following locations which block or reflect signals may result in failed or inaccurate positioning.
- Inside buildings or underground
- Between high-rise buildings
- Under overpasses
- Inside tunnels
- Near high-voltage electrical power lines
- Between clusters of trees
- Underwater
• Using a mobile phone of 1.5 GHz band near this camera may disrupt positioning.
• When carrying this camera around while positioning, do not place it in a metal bag. Positioning
cannot be performed if the camera is covered with metal materials.
• When there is a significant difference in the signals from the GPS satellite, there could be a
deviation of up to several hundred meters.
• Be aware of your surroundings when positioning.
• The shooting date and time that is displayed when playing back images is determined by the
camera’s internal clock at the time of shooting. The camera does not display the time at which
position information was obtained for an image.
• Position information will be recorded on the first frame of images shot using continuous shooting
mode.
• The Geodetic system for this camera’s GPS function uses the WGS 84 (World Geodetic System
1984).

Notes About Synchronize
• The Synchronize function adjusts the date and time based on the time zone set in Date & time
in the Android™ platform setting menu ( A91). Check the time zone before using Synchronize.
• The date and time set by the Synchronize function is not as accurate as that of radio clocks. If the
time set by Synchronize is not accurate, set the time in Date & time in the Android™ platform
setting menu (
A91).
