Setup Menu Options
The GPS item in the setup menu contains the options listed below.
• Auto meter off: Choose whether or not the exposure meters will
turn off automatically when a GPS unit is attached.
Option
Exposure meters will turn off automatically if no operations
are performed for the period specified in Custom Setting c2
(Auto meter-off delay). This reduces the drain on the
Enable
battery but may prevent GPS data from being recorded if
the shutter-release button is pressed all the way down
without pausing.
Exposure meters will not turn off while a GPS unit is
Disable
connected; GPS data will always be recorded.
• Position: This item is only available if a GPS
device is connected, when it displays the
current latitude, longitude, altitude,
Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), and
heading (if supported) as reported by the
GPS device.
A
Heading
The heading is only recorded if the GPS device
is equipped with a digital compass (note that
the GP-1 is not equipped with a compass).
Keep the GPS device pointing in the same
direction as the lens and at least 20cm (8 in.)
from the camera.
A
Coordinated Universal Time (UTC)
UTC data is provided by the GPS device and is independent of the
camera clock.
