About the GPS Function

This camera can obtain and use GPS (Global Positioning System) information (longitude and latitude) in two ways.

The first is by connecting the camera directly to a GPS module. The second is by using a Bluetooth® SPP (Serial Port Profile) to connect to a Bluetooth® GPS unit.

You can record GPS information on shot still images. GPS information recorded with a still image can be displayed on the Playback mode screen.

Caution------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For information about using the GPS module or Bluetooth® GPS unit, see the documentation that came with the device.

GPS information can be recorded to still images shot with this camera.

GPS information cannot be recorded with a text mode still image or movie.

Under some geographical conditions, GPS information cannot be obtained.

In some cases, positioning may take time.
