This item is used to adjust settings for optional GP-1 or GP-1A
GPS units (

0 333). The unit can be connected to the camera’s

accessory terminal (

device, allowing information on the camera’s current position to
be recorded when photographs are taken (turn the camera off
before connecting the unit; for more information, see the
manual provided with the device).

The Location data menu contains the options listed below.

connected, when it displays the current latitude, longitude,
altitude, and Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) as reported by
the unit.

• Set clock from satellite: Choose Yes to set the camera clock based

on the time provided by the satellite navigation system.
