| Data | Records location information (longitude, latitude, elevation, direction, and universal coordinated time (UTC)) as EXIF information to images when shooting |
| Attachment Method | Attaches to camera's USB port, hot-shoe or Digital terminal |
| Frequency | Reception: 1575.42 MHz (L1 band) |
| Positioning | Intervals: Every 1, 5, 10, 15, or 30 sec, or every 1, 2, or 5 min |
| Reception | Satellite: Shown on the GPS indicator (red) Before signal acquisition: Fast blinking Signal acquired: Slow blinking |
| Compass | Direction-calculated using a triaxial geomagnetic sensor and triaxial acceleration sensor |
| Logging | Intervals: Every 1, 5, 10, 15, or 30 sec, or every 1, 2, or 5 min Log File Format: NMEA-0813 File Usage: Images can be geotagged using Map Utility with log files Log files can be converted to KMZ files using Map Utility. Routes the camera has traveled can be viewed in Google Earth or other map software by loading the KMZ files |
| Modes | Power Switch set to On: Location information (latitude, longitude, altitude, direction, and UTC time) is automatically added to images as EXIF information when taking pictures Power Switch set to LOG: Location information (latitude, longitude, altitude, and UTC time) is recorded on GPS Receiver GP-E2 at the specified interval Location information (latitude, longitude, altitude, direction, and UTC time) is automatically added to images as EXIF information when taking pictures Connected to a Computer: Supports the following operations when GPS Receiver GP-E2 is connected to a computer and Map Utility is used to access GPS Receiver GP-E2's log files: Import logs to the computer Delete logs Manually geotag shots without GPS information by adding location information (latitude, longitude, altitude, and UTC time) to image as EXIF information View a route of where the camera has traveled on a map Produce KMZ files from log files Update EOS 7D firmware |
| Time | Set GPS time data on the camera (requires signal acquisition from 4 or more satellites) Clock Precision: High-precision time adjustment: ±TBA sec Margin of error relative to UTC time High-precision time adjustment is only available for EOS-1D series cameras (EOS-1D X or later) Normal time adjustment: ±1 sec Updating Interval: Auto update: After satellite reception when the GPS Receiver is turned on Immediate updating |
| Interface | Hot shoe for direct connection to camera Digital port for connection via dedicated interface cable Transmission via cable used if GPS receiver is attached to hot shoe and connected via cable |
| Power Supply | 1x AA LR6 alkaline battery Battery life at each position update interval: At normal temperature (73°F (23°C)): 1 sec: 10 hr 5 sec: 27 hr 10 sec: 37 hr 15 sec (default): 39 hr 30 sec: 39 hr 1 min: 54 hr 2 min: 63 hr 5 min: 92 hr Battery Check: Indicated by the battery check lamp (red) Level OK: Slow blinking Low battery: Fast blinking Replace battery: Off |
