9 Using the GPS Function
This camera can obtain and use GPS (Global Positioning System)
information (longitude and latitude) in two ways.
The first is by connecting the camera directly to a GPS module.
The second is by using a Bluetooth

SPP (Serial Port Profile) to
connect to a Bluetooth
®

You can record GPS information on shot still images. GPS
information recorded with a still image can be displayed on the
Playback mode screen.
