❚❚Setup Menu Options
The
GPS item in the setup menu contains the options listed below.
•
Auto meter off: Choose whether or not the exposure meters will
turn off automatically when a GPS unit is attached.
•
Position: This item is only available if a GPS
device is connected, when it displays the
current latitude, longitude, altitude,
Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), and
heading (if supported) as reported by the
GPS device.
Option Description
Enable
Exposure meters will turn off automatically if no operations
are performed for the period specified in Custom Setting c2
(
Auto meter-off delay). This reduces the drain on the
battery but may prevent GPS data from being recorded if
the shutter-release button is pressed all the way down
without pausing.
Disable
Exposure meters will not turn off while a GPS unit is
connected; GPS data will always be recorded.
A Heading
The heading is only recorded if the GPS device
is equipped with a digital compass (note that
the GP-1 is not equipped with a compass).
Keep the GPS device pointing in the same
direction as the lens and at least 20cm (8 in.)
from the camera.
A Coordinated Universal Time (UTC)
UTC data is provided by the GPS device and is independent of the
camera clock.
