Customer Review

I have bought myself the GPS tracker to tag photos with geographic data. This works fine as long (best before using the logger) the camera time to the timing (clock etc.) will be matched. For walks on foot, it is enough to set the supplied Canway program a recording interval of 10sec. The data is best read as a GPX file after the trip with the help of Canway program and passed Lightroom. Lightroom provides as Canway captured positions on a Google map as a track is, but then can also RAW files with geo-coordinates equip. The coordinates are fairly accurate, only at standstill of the source (ie if you are left or the car is parked) an erratic track will be created, which should be cut away.

After evaluation of the recorded tracks with the device on a Hurtigruten voyage along the Norwegian coast, I consider it appropriate, my previous very positive review from November 25, 2014 to correct them. I realized that tagged photos appeared on positions that were not in conformity with the image content (ie where you can determine independently of the GPS Logger Position by referring to the image content). The time stamp (the time stamps) that adds the device to the positions detected, thus, up to 2h deviate from the time that would be needed for a correct positioning. It may be reasonably ensured that the time stamp of the images are correct, the camera clock is running without readjust even today - 3 Months after the travel use - compliant with the radio clock. The time difference seems to be erratic, so can not be considered a typical for the present device individually offset eg in Lightroom.

Too bad, because now begin anew the quest for a usable device.
