Using Location Data Functions/Displaying Maps
B Notes About Location Data Functions
• Before using the location data functions, read “<Important> Notes About Location
Data Functions (GPS/GLONASS, Electronic Compass)” (Axii).
• It takes a few minutes to obtain location data when positioning is performed for
the first time or in a situation where positioning cannot be performed for a long
period of time, or just after the battery is replaced.
• Positions of the positioning satellites change constantly.
You may not be able to determine the position or it may take some time
depending on your location and the time.
To use the location data functions, use the camera in an open-air area with few
obstacles in the sky.
Signal receiving will be smoother if the positioning antenna (A1) is facing the sky.
• The following locations which block or reflect signals may result in failed or
inaccurate positioning.
- Inside buildings or underground locations
- Between high-rise buildings
- Under overpasses
-Inside tunnels
- Near high-voltage electrical power lines
- Between clusters of trees
• Using a mobile phone of 1.5 GHz band near this camera may disrupt positioning.
• When carrying this camera around while positioning, do not place it in a metal bag.
Positioning cannot be performed if the camera is covered with metal materials.
• When there is a significant difference in the signals from the positioning satellites,
there could be a deviation of up to several hundred meters.
• Be aware of your surroundings when positioning.
• The shooting date and time that is displayed when playing back images is
determined by the camera’s internal clock at the time of shooting.
The time obtained by the location data and recorded on images will not be
displayed on the camera.
• The location data for the first frame will be recorded on a series of images shot
using continuous shooting.
B Battery Drain While Recording Location Data and Log Recording
• When Record location data is set to On, record location data functions will
continue to operate at the specified interval for approximately 6 hours even after
the camera is turned off. Also, record location data functions and log recording
function will continue to operate during log recording (A91) even after the
camera is turned off.
• When Record location data is set to On or during log recording, the battery
power will drain faster than usual.
