Calibration is the process of making adjustments to a device in order to
obtain accurate information. Always calibrate the electronic compass
before using it.
1
Use the four-way controller (23) to select [Electronic
Compass] in the [WSetting] menu.
2
Press the four-way controller (5) twice.
The [Calibration] screen appears.
3
Wrap the strap around your wrist so you do not drop the
camera, and then rotate the camera at least 180 degrees
each vertically, horizontally, and laterally.
[Complete] appears when the camera
is successfully calibrated.
4
Press the 4 button.
The screen returns to the [WSetting] menu.
• [GPS Time Sync] can be set only when [GPS On/Off] is set to [On].

Adjusting the Electronic Compass (Calibration)
Calibration
Rotate camera in each of 3
directions ensuring that
each rotation exceeds 180°

• Do not swing or twirl the camera while changing your grip on it.
• If calibration is unsuccessful, face in a different direction and/or slightly
change the angle of grip, and then try calibration again.
• The electronic compass may not show the proper direction due to the
passing of time, or the change of the camera location. We recommend
periodically calibrating the camera.
• Calibration can be done regardless of the GPS signal reception status.
• At locations that are strongly affected by environmental magnetism, it
may be difficult to achieve successful calibration, or the electronic
compass may not show the proper direction even if calibration is
completed. The same may result when the camera is calibrated
indoors.
• At locations that are affected by geomagnetism, such as in volcanic
regions, it may be difficult to achieve successful calibration, or the
electronic compass may not show the proper direction even if
calibration is completed.
• If you cannot calibrate the camera within one minute of rotating the
camera in three directions, the process will fail and the message
[Cannot process correctly] appears. If this happens, try calibration
again.
