Starting GPS Data Recording

BNote on Pictures with Recorded Position Information

An individual may be identified from still pictures that have been recorded with location information. Observe caution when you transfer still pictures recorded with location information, or GPS log files to a third party or upload them to a network such as the Internet where the public can view them.

Be sure to read "Disposing of Data Storage Devices" (Av).

BNotes on Using the Camera with GPS Function Overseas

Before taking the camera with GPS function overseas for travel, consult your travel agency or embassy of the country you are visiting to confirm whether there is any restriction on use. For example, you cannot record location information logs without permission from the government in China.

Set the Record GPS data of the GPS options menu to Off.

The GPS may not function properly in China and on the borders between China and neighbouring countries.

CPictures with Recorded Position Information

The zicon is displayed during playback for images which have the position information recorded (A10).

Position information recorded on a picture can be checked on a map with ViewNX 2 after transferring the image to a computer (A91).

The actual place of shooting may differ from the GPS information recorded on the image files due to the accuracy of the position information obtained and a difference in the geodetic system used.
