Pentax O-GPS2 Handy GPS Unit Astrotracer Simple Navigation Electronic Compass Simplified Weather-Resistant Construction

• 〈GPS function〉The O-GPS2 mounts on the hotshoe of a compatible camera and records the latitude, longitude, altitude, universal time coordinated (UTC) and direction of the shooting location onto captured images.
• 〈ASTROTRACER〉When mounted on the corresponding PENTAX digital SLR cameras body, the O-GPS2 also offers the advanced ASTROTRACER function,** which couples the unit with the camera’s SR (Shake Reduction) system for the effortless tracing and photographing of celestial bodies.
• 〈Simple Navigation〉 The O-GPS2 offers a Simple Navigation function, which calculates the direction and distance to a given destination from the current position.
• 〈Electronic Compass〉 The O-GPS2 comes equipped with an Electronic Compass function, which displays the camera’s direction on its LCD monitor with great precision.
• 〈Simplified weather-resistant construction〉 It's for use in light rain
• 〈Independent power source (one AAA-size battery)〉 It's available to eliminate the need for power supply from the camera body

The PENTAX O-GPS2 has been developed as a successor to the "O-GPS1" (released in June 2011). In addition to GPS in the US, QZSS in Japan, GLONASS and Galileo can be newly received. Simply by mounting the PENTAX O-GPS2 onto the hotshoe of a PENTAX digital SLR camera,* the user can record the latitude, longitude, altitude, universal time coordinated (UTC) and aspect of shooting locations onto captured images. Image files carrying the location data, can be used to track shooting locations and review location data on a PC. The location data stored on such files also makes it much easier to sort and file recorded images. By coupling the location data with the camera’s SR (Shake Reduction) system, the unit offers a range of unique, advanced applications, including ASTROTRACER, Simple Navigation and Electronic Compass. * Compatible models are the PENTXA K-3 Mark III, KP, K-3, K-5II, K-5IIs, K-5, K-S2, K-S1, K-70, K-50, K-30, K-r, K-01, 645Z, 645D (as of May 2022). All applications will not support all models. Featuring convenient, simple to use equatorial telescope functions, the O-GPS2 allows easy filing of recorded images using location data such as shooting location and the camera's direction. Simply by mounting the O-GPS2 accessory GPS unit onto the hot shoe of a PENTAX digital SLR camera, you can record the latitude, longitude, altitude, universal time coordinated (UTC) and aspect of shooting locations onto captured images Receiving satellites include GPS , SBAS, OZSS , GLONASS, and Galileo. Image files carrying the location data can be used to track shooting locations and review location data on a computer The location data stored on these files also makes it much easier to sort and file recorded images By coupling location data with the camera's SR (Shake Reduction) system, this GPS unit offers a range of innovative, PENTAX- original applications, including ASTROTRACER , Simple Navigation and Electronic Compass .
