The GP-l GPS Unit
The GP-l GPS unit (available
separately) can be connected
to the
camera's accessory terminal using the
cable supplied with the GP-l, 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-l
manual.
When
the camera establishes communication with the
GP-1, a [[i) icon will appear in the information display,
Photo
information for pictures taken while the [[i)
icon is displayed will include an additional page of GPS
data C-.J 121). GPS data are only recorded when the ~
icon is displayed; confirm that the icon appears in the
information display before shooting
(a flashing icon indicates that the GP-l is searching
ci for a signal; pictures taken while the icon is flashing do not include GPS data). If no data
are received
from the GP-l for two seconds, the [[i) icon will clear from the display
and
the camera will stop recording GPS information.
