feature determines your position (latitude and
longitude) and stores this information with pictures
taken with the camera.
The camera uses supplementary orbital data
(assisted GPS or A-GPS) for improved signal
acquisition.
A-GPS data must be updated every 14 days.
Before using GPS, you will need to set the camera
clock to the correct date and time. (p. 50)
