Q&A Troubleshooting

GPS

Cannot perform positioning.

●●When [GPS Setting] is set to [OFF]. (→258)

●●Depending on the recording environment, such as when indoors or near buildings, it may not be possible to correctly receive the signals from the GPS satellites. (→257)

→When using the GPS, we recommend holding the camera still for a while with the GPS antenna facing upward in an outdoor location where you can see the entire sky.

The GPS status indicator lights up while the camera is turned off. ●●[GPS Setting] is [ON].

→Electromagnetic waves from the camera can affect instruments and meters. In airplane cabins (during takeoff and landing) or in other restricted areas, set [Airplane Mode] to [ON], and then turn off the camera. (→264)

Positioning takes time.

●●When using the camera for the first time or after not using it for a while, positioning may take several minutes.

●●Positioning usually takes less than two minutes, but because the positions of the GPS satellites change, it may take longer depending on the recording location and environment.

→ Positioning can be executed faster when you download GPS assist data to the camera using the “GPS Assist Tool”. (→266)

●●Positioning will take time in environments where it is difficult to receive the signals from the GPS satellites. (→257)

The location name information is different from the recording location.

●●Immediately after the camera is turned on or when the GPS icon is something other than [], the location name information that is recorded in the camera may vary significantly from the current position.

●●When [ ] is displayed for the location name information, the information can be changed to a different candidate before starting to record. (→263)

You can edit a place name or landmark name recorded in a picture. (→173)

The location name information is not displayed.

●●“- - -” is displayed if there is no nearby landmark or other points, or no information registered in the camera’s database. (→260)

→During playback, a location name or other information can be entered with [Place-Name Edit]. (→173)
