Recording GPS Information (Geotagging)
When the optional GP-E2 GPS Receiver is connected to the camcorder’s USB terminal, the camcorder will
automatically record the GPS information (time in the UTC standard*, longitude, latitude and altitude) to every
recording you make. The GPS information is recorded as part of the clip’s metadata and can be used to organize
and search recordings using Canon XF Utility (A 115).
* The time in the UTC standard is recorded for MP4 clips and photos only.
Connecting the GPS Receiver
Turn off the camcorder and the receiver. Connect the receiver to the camcorder’s USB terminal using the USB
cable*. For details about connecting and using the receiver, refer to the GP-E2 Instruction Manual.
* Supplied with the optional GP-E2 GPS Receiver.
Activating the GPS Receiver
1 Turn off the camcorder and receiver, and then connect the receiver to the camcorder.
2 Turn on the camcorder and receiver.
The icon appears on the right of the screen and will blink as the receiver tries to acquire satellite signals.
When satellite signals are correctly acquired, the icon will stay continuously on. GPS functions will be
activated and clips and photos recorded thereafter will be geotagged.
