The location data is recorded on the image. • z : Signals are being received, but positioning is not possible. If the location data was obtained within the last one minute, it is recorded on the image. • y : Signals are not received. The location data is not recorded on the image. 3Shoot images while positioning is being performed. •The location data is re corded on shot images. • The recorded location data can be checked on a map with ViewNX 2 after transferring the image to a computer ( E53).

E40 Reference Section BNotes About Location Data Functions •Before using the location data functions, read “ Notes About Location Data Functions (GPS/GLONASS)” ( Axi). • 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. Using the latest A-GPS file can shorten th e time needed for obtaining the location data (E 93). • 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 th e camera in an open-air area with few obstacles in the sky. Signal receiving will be smoother if the positioning antenna ( A2) is facing the sky. • The following locations which block or re flect 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 surrou ndings 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 when location data is obtained will be recorded on images, but it 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. BBattery 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 ( E42) 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.
E41 Reference Section CPoints of Interest (POI) Information •POI information is location name information for landmarks (facilities) and other details. • When Display POI in Points of interest (POI) ( E 95) of the location data options menu is set to On , the nearest location name information for the current position is displayed during shooting (only when positioning is being performed). • When Embed POI is set to On, location name information can be recorded on the image during shooting (only when positioning is being performed). • If the location name information was reco rded on the image during shooting, this information is displayed when Display POI is set to On during playback. • The location name information may not be displayed depending on the setting level in Level of detail of Points of interest (POI) . Also, certain landmark names may not be registered, or the landmark name may be different. CImages with Recorded Location Data • The z icon is displayed during playback for images which have the location data recorded ( A7). • Images which have the location data re corded can be checked on a map with ViewNX 2 after transferring them to a computer ( E53). • The actual place of shooting may differ fr om the location data recorded on the image files due to the accuracy of the loca tion data obtained and a difference in the geodetic system used. • The location data and POI information re corded on images can be erased using Erase location data in Location data options (E 93). The erased information cannot be recovered. mm0 0ssF5.6F5.68408402525mm0 0ssF5.6F5.61/2501/250 Location name information (POI information)
