Changing GPS Settings (GPS Menu)

Set Record GPS data to On in the GPS menu to change the valid storage period
for recording positional information onto a picture or manually update the
positional information. You can also use the signal transmission from the GPS
satellites to set the date/time of the built-in clock in the camera.

Valid Storage Period

If a picture is shot while positioning cannot be done, the last positional information
will be recorded onto the picture. As a result, a margin of error will occur between
the shooting location and the recorded positional information.
Set Valid storage period to reduce the margin of error with the shooting location.
Choose the valid storage period from 15 seconds or less, 30 seconds or less, 1
minute or less (default setting), 5 minutes or less, 15 minutes or less, 30
minutes or less, 60 minutes or less, or 2 hours or less.
If positioning cannot be done after the valid storage period has ended, the
positional information will not be recorded onto the picture.

Update GPS Data

Positioning is updated automatically, but Update GPS data can be used to update
manually.
