About the camera’s location name information
Before using the camera, be sure to read “Licence Agreement for Place Name and Map
Data”.
■
When [GPS Setting] is [ON], the GPS function works even if the camera is turned
off.
•Electromagnetic waves from the camera can affect instruments and meters. In
airplane cabins (during takeoff and landing) or in other restricted areas, set [Airplane
Mode] to [ON], and then turn off the camera.
•When [GPS Setting] is [ON] and [Airplane Mode] is [OFF], power will drain from the
battery even if the camera is turned off.
■
Recording location information
•The names of recording locations and landmarks (such as buildings) are current as of
October 2012. These will not be updated.
•Depending on the country or area, limited location name and landmark information
may be available.
■
Positioning
•Positioning will take time in environments where it is difficult to receive the signals
from the GPS satellites.
•
Even if GPS reception is good, it will take approx. 2 to 3 minutes to
successfully execute positioning under the following conditions: when
positioning is executed for the first time, or when positioning is executed after
the camera is turned off with the [GPS Setting] set to [OFF] or [Airplane Mode]
set to [ON], and then turned on again.
Positioning can be executed faster using GPS assist data.
•Because the positions of the GPS satellites are constantly changing, depending on
the recording location and conditions, it may not be possible to position such satellites
accurately, or positioning discrepancy may occur.
■
When using in another country
•The GPS function may not work in China or in the border regions of countries
neighbouring China. (Current as of January 2013)
•Some countries or regions may regulate the use of GPS or related technology.
Because this camera has a GPS function, before taking it into another country, check
with the embassy or your travel agency whether there are any restrictions on bringing
cameras with a GPS function.
