![]() Then clicked the “Start a New Trip” button, the iPhone now captures the GPS coordinates and the phone can be switched off and put back in your pocket: I selected the precise setting, I was only going to be an hour or so. ![]() I drive to the destination (in this case it was Hartsholme Park), just before I exit the car I switch on my iPhone (note that this was fully charged, the GPS can use a lot of battery power). I’ll explain how to use it by discussing my picture taking and ingesting work flow. Instead, you take a picture of a QR code (on the iPhone’s display) at the end of the shoot. Then I found gps4cam this software does not require you to sync your camera’s and iPhone’s clocks. All of these require that the iPhone clock and the DSLR clock are set to the same time, this frankly seemed very clumsy to me. I have also looked at the various apps available for my iPhone which of course has a full GPS built in. Canon seem to be in no rush to come up with something and all of the devices available require a lot of syncing and frankly messy work. I have been looking for something for Canon DSLR’s that achieved the same result. Nikon have a device that works with most of their SLR’s called the Nikon GP-1 GPS Module: this uses the cameras power and adds the geotag data to the EXIF information as the picture is taken, the device is quite small and uses the AUX data port on Nikon cameras, it can sit in the hot-shoe or clip to the camera strap: One thing that I miss from my Nikon days was not being able to geotag my photos. I went to Hartsholme on Sunday for 2 reasons, the main reason to photograph the wildlife – something I really enjoy and secondly to try out some new software that I purchased for my iPhone.
