The GP-1 GPS Unit

The GP-1 GPS unit (available separately) can be connected to the camera’s accessory terminal as shown below using the cable supplied with the GP-1, allowing information on the camera’s current position to be recorded when photographs are taken. Turn the camera off before connecting the GP-1; for more information, see the GP-1 manual.

t

When the camera establishes communication with the GP-1, a Xicon will be displayed in the control panel. Photo information for pictures taken while the Xicon is displayed will include an additional page (pg. 133) recording the current

latitude, longitude, altitude, and Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). If no data are received from the GP-1 for two seconds, the Xicon will clear from the display and the camera will stop recording GPS information.

AGPS Data

GPS data are only recorded when the Xicon is displayed. Confirm that the Xicon is displayed in the control panel before shooting. A flashing Xicon indicates that the GP-1 is searching for a signal; pictures taken while the Xicon is flashing will not include GPS data.
