Using a GPS Unit
An optional GP-1 GPS unit (0 231) can be connected to the
accessory terminal (0 3) allowing information on the camera’s
current position to be recorded when photographs are taken.
When connecting GPS units, turn the camera off and note that the
unit can not be mounted on the accessory shoe when the built-in
flash is used; for more information, see the manual provided with
the GP-1.
❚❚Setup Menu Options
The GPS item in the setup menu contains the options listed below.
• Auto off: Choose whether the camera turns off automatically
when a GPS unit is attached.
• Position: This item is only available if a GPS unit is connected,
when it displays the current latitude, longitude, altitude, and
Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) as reported by GPS.
• Use GPS to set camera clock: Select Yes to synchronize the camera
clock with the time reported by the GPS device.
Option Description
Enable
The camera will enter standby if no operations are performed
for the time selected for Auto off timer in the setup menu
(0 182); if no operations are performed before standby ends,
the camera will turn off automatically.
This reduces the drain
on the battery.
Disable
The camera does not turn off automatically while a GPS unit
is connected.
A Coordinated Universal Time (UTC)
UTC data is provided by the GPS device and is independent of the
camera clock.
