GP-E1 GPS Receiver

Connect the GPS receiver to the camera's system expansion terminal in CAMERA (shooting) mode to
have the GPS information (latitude, longitude, altitude) recorded with the metadata of XF-AVC clips. For
details about attaching and configuring the receiver, refer to the instruction manual of the camera being
used.
• In certain countries/regions, the use of GPS may be restricted. Be sure to use the GPS receiver
in accordance with local laws and regulations of the country/region where the receiver is used.
Be particularly careful when traveling outside of your home country.
• Be careful about using GPS functions where the operation of electronic devices is restricted.
• The GPS information recorded with clips may contain data that can lead others to locate or
identify you. Be careful when sharing geotagged recordings with others or when uploading
them to the Web.
• Do not leave the receiver near strong electromagnetic fields such as near powerful magnets
and motors.
• The GPS information recorded with clips corresponds to the location at the start of the
recording.
• Initial GPS signal reception will take longer after replacing the receiver's battery or when first
turning on the receiver after a prolonged period of having been turned off.
• Do not place cables connected to the camera's terminals near the receiver. Doing so may
negatively affect the GPS signal.
