    „  Model Number
    EOS 5D Mark IV (WG) :  DS126601
    (including GPS module model: ES300)
      In certain countries and regions, the use of GPS function may be 
    restricted. Therefore, be sure to use GPS function in accordance 
    with the laws and regulations of your country or region. Be 
    particularly careful when using GPS function outside your home 
    country.
      Be careful about using GPS function where the operation of 
    electronic devices is restricted.
      Others may be able to locate or identify you by using location data in 
    your geotagged pictures or movies. Be careful when sharing these 
    geotagged images, movies or GPS log  files with others, such as 
    when posting them online where many people can view them.
      GPS signal reception may take a longer time in some cases.
    Hereby, Canon Inc., declares that this DS126601 is in compliance with the 
    essential requirements and other relevant provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC.

    GPS Precautions 
    						
    							
    231
    To acquire GPS signals, take the camera outside where the sky is 
    unobstructed. Face the top of the camera toward the sky while keeping 
    your hands, etc. away from the camera top.
    When the signal acquisition conditions are good, it will take the camera 
    approx. 30 sec. to 60 sec. to acquire the GPS satellite signals after you 
    set [ GPS ] to [Mode 1 ] or [Mode 2 ]. Check that [ r] is displayed on 
    the LCD panel, then shoot.
    1Select [GPS settings].
     Under the [ 54] tab, select [ GPS 
    settings ], then press < 0>.
    2Select the mode.
      Select [ Mode 1 ] or [Mode 2 ].
    X [r ] will be displayed on the LCD 
    panel.
      Mode 1
    The camera will continue to receiv e GPS signals at regular intervals 
    even when the power switch is set to < 1> or < 2>.
      Mode 2
    When the power switch is set to < 1>, the camera will receive 
    GPS signals. When the power switch is set to < 2>, the GPS 
    function will also turn off. However,  if auto power off is in effect, the 
    camera will continue to receive  GPS signals at regular intervals.

    The GPS acquisition status is indicated 
    by the [r] icon displayed on the 
    camera’s LCD panel.
    Constant  r: Signal acquired
    Blinking  r: Signal not acquired yet
    When you shoot while [ r] is 
    constantly displayed, the image will be 
    geotagged.
    GPS Acquisition Status
      When [ Mode 1 ] is set, the camera will continue to receive GPS signals at 
    regular intervals even when the power switch is set to < 2>. 
    Therefore, the battery will drain faster and fewer shots can be taken. If 
    you will not use the camera for a prolonged period, set to [ Disable].
      When [ Mode 2 ] is set, the camera will continue to receive GPS signals at 
    regular intervals even during auto power off. Therefore, if auto power off 
    is prolonged, the battery will drain faster and fewer shots can be taken. If 
    you will not use the camera for a prolonged period, set the power switch 
    to < 2 >.
      The built-in GPS antenna is located in front of the hot shoe on the right 
    when viewed from the back of the camera (p.28). The GPS signal can be 
    acquired while an external Speedlite is attached to the hot shoe, but the 
    acquisition sensitivity will slightly decrease.
      GPS Receiver GP-E2 (sold separately) cannot be used. 
    						
    							
    233
    Acquiring GPS Signals
    Poor GPS CoverageUnder the following conditions, the GPS satellite signal will not be properly 
    acquired. As a result, the geotag information may not be recorded or 
    inaccurate geotag information may be recorded.
     Indoors, underground, in tunnels or forests, between buildings, or in 
    valleys.
      Near high-voltage power lines or mobile phones operating on the 1.5 
    GHz band.
      When the camera is left inside a bag, etc.
      When traveling a long distance.
      When traveling through different environments.
      Since GPS satellites move as time passes, satellite movement can 
    interfere with geotagging and cause missing or inaccurate location 
    information even in conditions other than the above. Additionally, the 
    location information may also include a different location information with 
    the route traveled even if the camera was used at just one location.
     The battery level may be low when you start using the camera due to the 
    effect of the GPS function. If necessary, recharge the battery or prepare 
    a charged, spare battery (sold separately).
      The camera can receive GPS signals ev en when shooting in the vertical 
    orientation. 
    						
    							
    Acquiring GPS Signals
    234
    1Check the [GPS] setting.
     Check that [ GPS] is set to [ Mode 1] 
    or [ Mode 2 ].
    2Select [GPS information display].
    XThe GPS information will be 
    displayed.
    3Take the picture.
      When you shoot after GPS signal 
    acquisition, the image will be 
    geotagged.
    Viewing GPS Information
    Generally, elevation is not as accurate as latitude and longitude due to the 
    nature of GPS.
      The  icon indicates signal conditions. When  is displayed, the 
    elevation is also recorded. Note  that the elevation cannot be recorded 
    when < B> is displayed.
      UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) is essentially the same as Greenwich 
    Mean Time.

    UTC (Coordinated Universal Time)
      When you shoot a movie, the GPS information at the time when shooting 
    begins is recorded. Note that  signal reception conditions are not 
    recorded.
      Shooting locations can be viewed on a map displayed on a computer, 
    using the Map Utility (EOS software, p.598). 
    						
    							
    236
    The interval (time) to update the geotag information can be set. 
    Although updating the geotag information at shorter intervals will record 
    more accurate location information, it will reduce the number of possible 
    shots because it will drain the battery faster.
    1Check the [GPS] setting.
     Check that [ GPS] is set to [ Mode 1] 
    or [ Mode 2 ].
    2Select [Position update intvl].
    3Set the desired update interval.
     Select the desired update interval, 
    then press < 0>.
    Setting the Posi tioning Interval
     If you are in a location where the GP S acquisition condition is not good, 
    the number of possible shots will decrease.
      The nature of GPS may cause some inconsistency in update intervals. 
    						
    							
    237
    The time information obtained from GPS signals can be set on the camera. The margin of error is approx. ±1 sec.
    1Check the [GPS] setting.
     Check that [ GPS] is set to [ Mode 1] 
    or [ Mode 2 ].
    2Select [Auto time setting].
    3Select the desired setting.
     Select [ Auto update ] or [Set now ], 
    then press < 0>.
      [Auto update ] updates the time when 
    the camera is turned on and a GPS 
    signal is received.
    Setting Time from  GPS on the Camera
     If signals from at least five GPS satellites cannot be acquired, the time 
    cannot be auto updated. [ Set now] will be grayed out and not selectable.
      Even if [ Set now ] can be selected, updating the time may not be 
    possible due to an unfavorable timing of the GPS signal acquisition.
      When [ Auto time setting ] is set to [Auto update ], the date or time 
    cannot be manually set with [ 52: Date/Time/Zone ].
      If you use Wireless File Transmitter WFT-E7 (Ver. 2/sold separately) and 
    do not want to change the time after implementing [ Sync time between 
    cameras ], set [Auto time setting ] to [Disable ] in step 2.
