When the camera establishes
communication with a GPS device, a
k icon
will be displayed in the top control panel.
Photo information for pictures taken while
the
k icon is displayed will include a page
of GPS data (pg. 238), including the current latitude, longitude,
altitude, Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), and heading (if
supported). If no data are received from the GPS unit for two
seconds, the
k icon will clear from the display and the camera will
stop recording GPS information.

displayed. Confirm that the k icon is displayed
in the top control panel before shooting. A
flashing
k icon indicates that the GPS device is
searching for a signal; pictures taken while the k
icon is flashing will not include GPS data.
