Acquiring location information (GPS) (HDR-TG5V)

Set the GPS switch to ON ( appears on the LCD screen). Your camcorder starts trying to triangulate. When your camcorder triangulates successfully, it will record the location information at the time movies and photos were recorded.

The movies and photos with location information will appear on a map (p. 36), so that you can remember where you recorded those movies and photos.

In addition, you can acquire your current location information to check where you are at the moment (p. 51).

You can display where movies and photos were recorded on a map. For details, see page 36.
