Displaying the status and result of positioning
The icons that indicate the status and result of positioning will appear on the LCD
monitor. When positioning is successful, camera will search the place name information
(name of place and landmark) inside its internal database and display it.
Place name information
Even if GPS reception is good, it will take approx. 2 to 3 minutes to
successfully execute positioning in the following cases:
• When positioning is executed for the first time
• When [GPS Setting] was set to [OFF]
• When [Airplane Mode] was set to [ON] and the camera was turned off
• When the battery was removed
Positioning can be executed faster when you download GPS assist data to the
camera using the "GPS Assist Tool".
