Recording Location Information with Image Data (Record Lat/Long)

While “On” is selected for the “Record Lat/Long” setting, location information (latitude, longitude, camera aiming direction) as measured by the Hybrid-GPS will be recorded along with the image data (snapshots and movies).

1.In the REC mode, press [MENU].

2.On the “Set Up” tab, select “Record Lat/Long” and then press [6].

3.Use [8] and [2] to select “On” and then press [SET].

4.Press the shutter button (if you are shooting a snapshot) or [0] (Movie) (if you are shooting a movie).

This will record the image along with the location information (latitude, longitude, direction) for your current location.

•In the case of a snapshot, the location information is recorded when you press the shutter button all the way down. For a movie, the location information is recorded when you press [0] (Movie).

GPS Wave Conditions

 

GPS satellite waves being received. GPS measurement location

 

information can be recorded with image data.

 

 

 

GPS satellite wave reception is poor, so GPS measurement location

 

information cannot be recorded with image data. In this case, motion

 

sensor location information will be recorded with image data.

 

 

 

GPS satellite waves cannot reach your location, so GPS position

 

information cannot be recorded with an image. The camera can, however,

 

save position information produced by the motion sensor.

 

 

 

GPS is turned off (page 92).
