Acquiring location information (GPS) (HDR-XR500V/XR520V)

Set the GPS switch to ON (

appears on the LCD screen). Your camcorder starts trying

to triangulate. When your camcorder triangulates successfully, it will record the location

information at the time movies and photos were recorded.

The movies and photos with location information will appear on a map (p. 44), so that you

can remember where you recorded those movies and photos.

In addition, you can acquire your current location information to check where you are at the

moment (p. 59).

Using the supplied software, “PMB,” you can display the movies and photos where you recorded them on

a map. For details, see page 44.
