Geomet'r GNC-38 GPS Receiver for Nikon & Fujifilm Digital SLRs

Geotagging is fast becoming an integral part of the photographic landscape. Knowing where a photo was taken is as important as knowing who took it and when. For select Nikon and Fuji SLR cameras, this Geomet'r GNC-38 GPS Receiver tethers to the camera's 10-pin remote socket to actively tag images with latitude and longitude data that can be examined and referenced on the camera or computer. The SiRF III receiver is linked to the camera with a long coiled cable. When the shooting day is done, using the included software helps to organize images. The application is Mac OSX and Windows 2000, XP & Vista compatible, but is not necessary for operation if another image organizer is preferred.

Note! GNC-38 is not compatible with Nikon D90
