and a message is displayed indicating that a
connection has been established.
When the confirmation message is displayed,
select [OK].
X At this point, the menu option [Disconnect]
becomes available. Select this option before
disconnecting the GPS device.

From top to bottom: latitude, longitude,
altitude, and Coordinated Universal Time
The date and time indicated is the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) as obtained by the GPS device,
which is nearly the same as Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). In some cases, the date and time of the
zone specified on the GPS device is indicated.

lit in green. If you shoot while the lamp is blinking, the correct GPS information may not be added to images.
