Field Sensor Logs

The camera records sensor and GPS data at regular intervals to create a log. Logs
can be viewed using the "OLYMPUS Image Track" (OI.Track) smartphone app. You
can see the route you traveled with your camera and the locations where pictures
were taken.
Use [Field Sensor Logger] in G Custom Menu Q to start logging sensor data.
Location data will be recorded if they can be acquired via GPS.
Logging Data
When logging starts, the camera records the data internally. The data are saved to
a memory card when logging ends. Logging will continue even while the camera is
off. Logging is available only if the camera clock is set. g [X Settings] (P. 455)
• Logging ends if:
- The battery level falls below 15%

the log may take a few minutes.
• Logging cannot start or end while the camera is connected to a smartphone.
• A message will be displayed while the log is transferred to the memory card. Do not remove
the card while the message is displayed. Failure to observe this precaution could result in
the log being lost or in damage to the camera or card.
• Logs cannot be saved if the memory card is full or otherwise unusable. Delete unwanted
data or take such other steps as may be needed to save the log.
