Recording GPS Data with Pictures

To record GPS data with new pictures, press the Fbutton and select one of the following options for RSETUP > LOCATION SEARCH in the F-mode menu (P85).

PERMANENTLY ON: The camera continues to update GPS data even when turned off. The camera will be quicker to display GPS data when turned on, but the drain on the battery will increase.

WHEN SWITCHED ON: The camera updates GPS data only when on. The camera may need some time to acquire GPS data when turned on. This option is selected automatically at battery levels of Band below.

RGPS works best outdoors under clear skies.

During shooting, GPS data are displayed in the monitor as shown at right. Signal strength is indicated by the number of bars; Ois displayed when the camera is searching for a signal, Qif the camera is in GPS demo mode, and Pif no signal is detected. The current location is shown by a place name or (if no place name is available) by the longitude and latitude.
