shadowy place surrounded by buildings or trees, etc. Use the camera in open sky environments. You may not be able to record location information at locations or in situations where radio signals from the GPS satellites do not reach the camera as follows. In tunnels, indoors or under the shade of buildings Between tall buildings or at narrow streets surrounded by buildings In underground locations, locations surrounded by dense trees, under an elevated bridge, or in locations where magnetic fields are generated, such as near high voltage cables. Near devices that generate radio signals of the same frequency band as the camera: near 1.5 GHz band mobile telephones, etc. If you shoot images while the GPS log is set to ON and upload those images to the Internet, the shooting location may be visible to third parties. To prevent this, set the GPS log to OFF before shooting. [118] Information Precautions On GPS errors (FDR-X3000/HDR-AS300) If you move to another location right after turning the camera on, it may take a longer time for the camera to start triangulating, compared to when you stay in the same place. Error caused by the position of GPS satellites The camera automatically triangulates your current location when the camera receives radio signals from 3 or more GPS satellites. The triangulating error allowed by the GPS satellites is about 10 m (33 feet). Depending on the environment of the location, the triangulating error can be greater. In this case, your actual location may not match the location on the map based on the GPS information. Meanwhile, the GPS satellites are controlled by the United States Department of Defense, and the degree of accuracy may be changed intentionally. Error during the triangulating process The camera acquires location information periodically during triangulating. There is a slight time lag between when the location information is acquired and when the location information is recorded on an image, therefore, the actual recording location may not match the exact location on the map based on the GPS information. [119] Information Precautions On GPS use restriction (FDR-X3000/HDR-AS300) Use GPS in accordance with the situation and regulations of the countries/regions where you use the camera.
