Using GPS Function

50

Save the GPS log files to the
memory card.

When you turn off the camera, a message
about the logger is displayed. The location
information, date and time will be saved to the
memory card. This information will not remain
on the camera.
If the camera is off and you want to remove
the memory card when the logger is being
used, turn the camera on, then turn it off
again before removing the memory card.
The location information, date and time will
be saved to the memory card when you do
any of the following things.

-

Display the log files

-

Display the date/time setting screen

-

Display the time zone setting screen

Removing the battery after step 4 will deactivate the logger. To
reactivate the logger after battery replacement, turn the camera on
and then off again.

Saving GPS log files is not possible when the memory card write-
protect tab is in the locked position. Make sure the tab is set to the
unlocked side.

Location information, date and time will be saved to the memory card
when the camera is turned off or when displaying log files (p. 51). For
this reason, if the camera is off and you want to remove the memory
card when the logger is being used, turn the camera on, then turn it
off again before removing the memory card.

When using the logger function, exercise caution when turning the
camera over to another person, as the date and time, and logged
location information will remain on the camera until it is saved to a
memory card (even if the battery is depleted).

Be careful when formatting memory cards (p. 157), because the GPS
log file will also be erased.

You can also configure logger settings from the menu (p. 42).
