BNotes About Location Data Functions
•Before using the location data functions,  read “ Notes About Location 
Data Functions (GPS/GLONASS, Electronic Compass)” ( Axii).
• It takes a few minutes to perform positioning for the location data when 
positioning is performed for the first ti me or in a situation where positioning 
cannot be performed for a long period of ti me, 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 87).
• 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 ( A1) 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 positioning for the location data was performed can be recorded 
on the images, but it cannot 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 ( E39) 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.

CPoints of Interest (POI) Information
POI information is  location name information fo r landmarks (facilities) and 
other details. 
• When  Display POI  in Points of interest 
(POI)  (E 90) 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 performed).
• When  Embed POI  is set to On, location 
name information can be recorded on the 
image during shooting (only when 
positioning is performed).
• If the location name information was 
recorded on the image during shooting,  this information is displayed when 
Display POI  is set to On during playback.
• The location name info rmation 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 registere d, 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 ( A5).
• The location data recorded on an image can be checked on a map with ViewNX 2 
after transferring the image to a computer ( E58).
• 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 87). The erased information 
cannot be recovered.
