Using the GPS
Set the [GPS On/Off] to [On] for receiving GPS information (latitude, longitude, 
altitude, date and time etc.).
The GPS function needs to be always activated to embed GPS information on an 
image (p.201), record it to the camera as a log (p.203), save it to the SD Memory 
Card as a log file (p.205), and correct the camera clock automatically (p.208).
1Use the four-way controller (23) to select [GPS] in the 
[ W Setting] menu.
2Press the four-way controller ( 5).The [GPS] screen appears.
3Use the four-way controller ( 23) to select [GPS On/Off].
4Press the four-way controller ( 5).

to select [Off] or [On].
Off: Does not receive GPS information
On: Receives GPS information
Preparation for Using the GPS Function
• When [GPS On/Off] is set to [On], the camera performs positioning  regularly even while the camera power is off, which reduces the battery life.
Estimated battery life: Approx. 60 hr.
(When receiving GPS information continuously with [GPS On/Off] set to 
[On], [Logging Interval] set to [15sec.], and the camera turned off.)
• Before changing the battery, set [GPS On/Off] to [Off].
