About GPS
Your Panasonic Lumix digital still camera is GPS-equipped which can automatically
record the precise location coordinates of where the photo was taken. The specific
physical address of this location can easily be derived from this information.
If you upload such “geotagged” photos to the Internet, a social networking site or any
other electronic media, the precise location of where the photo was taken will remain
embedded in the photo and can be viewed by others.
Therefore, when taking digital still photos, care should be taken in determining whether
you wish to have the GPS feature enabled or disabled.
■
About the camera’s location name information
Before using the camera, read “User License Agreement for Location Name Data”. (→320)
■
About the GPS function
• Information measured with this unit is simply a rough estimate. Please do not use for
professional applications.
• When [GPS Setting] is [ON], the GPS function works even if the camera is turned off.
- Electromagnetic waves from the camera can affect instruments and meters. In
airplane cabins (during takeoff and landing) or in other restricted areas, set [Airplane
Mode] to [ON], and then turn off the camera. (→62)
- When [GPS Setting] is [ON] and [Airplane Mode] is [OFF], power will drain from the
battery even if the camera is turned off.
■
Recording location information
• The names of recording locations and landmarks (such as buildings) are current as of
October 2012. These will not be updated.
• Depending on the country or area, limited location name and landmark information
may be available.
■
Positioning
• Positioning will take time in environments where it is difficult to receive the signals
from the GPS satellites. (→257)
•
Even if GPS reception is good, it will take approx. 2 to 3 minutes to successfully
execute positioning under the following conditions: when positioning is executed for
the first time, or when positioning is executed after the camera is turned off with the
[GPS Setting] set to [OFF] or [Airplane Mode] set to [ON], and then turned on again.
Positioning can be executed faster using GPS assist data. (→266)
• Because the positions of the GPS satellites are constantly changing, depending on
the recording location and conditions, it may not be possible to position such satellites
accurately, or positioning discrepancy may occur.
■
When using in another country
• The GPS function may not work in China or in the border regions of countries
neighboring China. (Current as of January 2014)
• Some countries or regions may regulate the use of GPS or related technology.
Because this camera has a GPS function, before taking it into another country, check
with the embassy or your travel agency whether there are any restrictions on bringing
cameras with a GPS function.
