Hi all,

I'm hoping someone has a quick solution for me.

I just picked up a GP-1 GPS receiver for my Nikon D200 because I wanted to record long/lat info directly into my EXIF as I take the photos.

I just received my GP-1 in the mail today and I was testing it out.

I can get a satellite signal but when I download the RAW files to Aperture I don't see any long/lat info in any of the exif. I tried uploading it to Flickr and I also enabled flickr to download gps info from the exif.

None of the files are placed on a map.

What am I doing wrong?

I'm trying to figure this out because I leave tomorrow morning on my vacation.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Zeekid

After the picture was taken, do you see the GPS location on the meta-data on the camera?

If yes, then export setting was probably the cause?

If no, then try update firmware on the camera?

Hope this helps. :oops:

The firmware update did the trick. Thank you very much

I wasn't sure if I should have updated the firmware because I didn't see any where mentioning that one was required. I was hesitant to update the firmware because I had visions of messing it up and not having a camera to use at all. lol
