●●Even if GPS reception is good, it will take approx. 2 to 3 minutes to successfully execute positioning under the following conditions; when positioning is executed for the first time, or when positioning is executed after the camera is turned off with the [GPS Setting] set to [OFF] or [Airplane Mode] set to [ON], and then turned on again.
