Using Location Data Functions/Displaying Maps
You can check the atmospheric pressure as well as the altitude or water depth
of the current position on the screen, and record the displayed values to the
captured images.
• The altitude, water depth, and atmospheric pressure that are recorded to
images can be imprinted on the images by using Data imprint (A68) in
the playback menu.
• Captured images and related logs can be displayed if you use the altitude or
water depth log recording functions (A145).
B Notes About Altimeter and Depth Gauge
• Use Alt./depth correction in Altitude/depth options (A118) in the location
data options menu to correct the altitude or water depth in advance. Before using
the camera underwater, make sure to adjust the data to 0 m (0 ft) at the surface of
water.
• Do not use the altimeter or depth gauge in this camera for specialized applications
such as mountain climbing or underwater diving. The displayed information is
intended as a general guide only.
• Since the altitude is calculated using the camera's internal barometer, the data may
not be displayed correctly in some climate conditions.
• When the scale of the depth gauge display exceeds 25 m (82 ft), the depth gauge
display turns orange. When the scale of the depth gauge display exceeds 30 m (98
ft), the depth gauge display turns red.
C Altitude/Water Depth
• The altimeter or depth gauge can be
displayed when Altimeter/depth gauge
in Altitude/depth options in the location
data options menu is set to On (default
setting).
• The depth gauge and water depth are
displayed when you select Underwater
scene mode, or select x (scene auto
selector) mode and then submerge the
camera underwater. If the camera is not
being used underwater when Underwater
is selected, the depth gauge display is fixed
at 0 m (0 ft).
• The display range of the altitude is -300 m
to +4500 m (-984 to +14,760 ft), and the
display range of the water depth is 0 m to 35 m (0 ft to 114 ft).
• When altitude or water depth is corrected, i is displayed next to the altitude or
water depth.
