This function uses signals received from multiple GPS satellites to record
location information (latitude, longitude, elevation) in still images and movies.
The location information data can also be recorded separately from images
and movies. Additionally, this function can be used to automatically update
the camera’s clock.
Before using the GPS function, make sure to correctly set the date/time and
your home time zone (p. 19) beforehand.
GPS stands for “Global Positioning System”.
Please keep the following things in mind when using the GPS function.
In certain countries and regions, the use of GPS may be restricted.
Therefore, be sure to use GPS in accordance with the laws and regulations
of your country or region. Be particularly careful when traveling outside your
home country.
Exercise caution when using this function in places that restrict the use of
electronic devices, as the camera receives signals from GPS satellites.
The camera’s positioning information recorded in images and movies
with the GPS function may contain information that can be used to
determine your physical location. Be sure to take adequate precautions
when transferring images containing camera positioning data and GPS
log files to others, or when uploading these files to the internet where they
can be viewed by numerous people.
Since it may not be possible to receive GPS satellite signals correctly in
the following situations, the camera’s positioning data may not be
recorded or the recorded position may differ from the actual position.
When indoors, under ground, under water (using separately-sold
waterproof case) (p. 39), in tunnels or forests, near buildings or valleys,
near high-voltage power lines or mobile phones that use a frequency of
1.5 GHz.
Since the position of GPS satellites changes over time, the camera’s
positioning data may not be recorded or the recorded position may differ
from the actual position even in situations other than those mentioned
above.
It may take some time to receive a signal from GPS satellites after
switching the battery, or if the GPS function has not been used for a long
time.
