Performing A Calibration - Pentax K-1 Operating Manual

u Caution
• While the GPS is on, the battery drains faster than normal.
• If you use the camera near objects which generate a
magnetic field such as magnets, or have magnetism such as
iron, the electronic compass may not work properly.
• The GPS information stored in the image file cannot be
deleted. If you do not want to share the shooting location
information with the public when posting the image on SNS,
etc., turn the GPS off before shooting.
• You cannot use the optional GPS unit O-GPS1 with this
camera.
• For other precautions on the GPS, refer to "About the GPS"
(p.129).
t Memo
• When the GPS information can be obtained, Coordinated
Universal Time (UTC) is recorded as the shooting date and
time for images. On the Electronic Compass screen (p.14),
the time is displayed after the difference between UTC and
the time of the shooting location is corrected.
