Does iPhoto recognize the GPS data? Does anyone know if this camera's GPS data is read by iPhoto 09's Places function?

The Nikon P6000 works great with iPhoto. I am not promoting it, just stating that as a fact. It is slow to get GPS location, so I was here shopping for a slimmer GPS camera when I came across this question.

There are two versions of this camera - one without GPS and one with GPS. Make sure you order the right option.

Best to ask or look on the manufacturer website as we are using on a D7000, there were different cable for different camera models. GPS info gets written to the metadata so yes available on jpg or raw.

This works by a GPS Location. It does not "Sense" a speed camera. If the database says there is a speed camera somewhere, it will start beeping about 500-1000 ft before the camera even if there is no camera there. You can add locations to it for cameras that are not yet in their database. I have added several to their database. It has saved me a ton of money too. My house is bracketed by speed cameras and my commute to work has 5 cameras on it round trip.

Please contact to the seller if you are buying the international version and not the Taiwan local version. GPS functionality may be deprecated oversea on non international version. You should go to your camera seller for support or Vicovation facebook page to contact manufacturer.

It does, but it is a little different from most gps sensors in that the map program has to explicitly use it. Nokia "Here Maps" uses it.

No this camera does not have GPS for Geo-tagging BUT it will acquire the latitude and longitude coordinates of your smartphone and write that location to your picture. You will need to install the Panasonic Image App on your smartphone. You will also have to change the settings: Menu->Playback->Location Logging->Add location data.

I own the Panasonic zs7 and just did an import. When you ask iPhoto to find the picture on the map (assuming you took it with GPS enabled), it pulls the picture location up immediately. It does not take the liberty of naming the place for you, but the map spot is highly accurate.

It's an MC-DC2 which plugs into the GPS slot of the camera. I have a D3100 which it works fine with, no issues so far. You can see a picture of the plug here http://www.doc-diy.net/photo/remote_pinout/

I bought a used garmin and a cable later. They did hook up after I loaded Picasa (sp?) however either my device was too old or I was not the original purchaser and could not up date my device. But I might be wrong because I am an internet idiot. I am a writer. On SCRIBD I publish as SpecialDad.

Check their website to find out if the database is available for your country. It works by loading a database of camera locations to the device.

I think the camera surely has a format card choice in the menu? Personally I plug the card into my Mac laptop, iPhoto takes in all the picts, asks me if I want to delete and I say yes. This would be true via adapter into iPad, etc. also...

I agree with the comments regarding GPS reception. I recently took this camera to NYC and was unable to get any GPS logging during my trip except when I was at the top of the empire state building! I thought this camera would do a better job than my Sony HX5V since the GPS is supposed to stay active even when the camera is off so I wouldn't need to wait so long when the camera is powered on to take a shot... no such luck. The HX5V still doesn't acquire a signal when indoors and takes a while to get a signal before each shot (when the reception is good), but I'd rather have it than the SX230HS as far as GPS tagging goes.

I bought this as a gift, so I can't look. But if I remember correctly this model does not have GPS. The newer models of this camera do have GPS.

Do you mean will you be able to extract the GPS location information using a Mac - assuming you had the GPS on when you took the photo? The answer is yes, if the software you are using has that capability. iPhoto will do it, for instance.

I was going to buy this camera mainly because of GPS feature. Any update on GPS signal?
