That seemed to be an effective way of maintaining the GPS connection, though I continued to monitor it. When I was on a safari recently, I got into the habit of leaving the camera switched on all the time, albeit with power saving enabled. I’m not sure whether it would have done so by itself, if I had waited long enough. I found that I needed to open the smartphone again to reconnect it. As it warns on page 415 of the EOS R manual, if you turn the camera off, it can lose the GPS connection. You just have to monitor that it is still working. doesn't make sense that transferring the picture to my iphone photo and then having that auto upload to google doesn't keep the geotag. The original EOS M was never advertised as having a geotagging function. If I copy pictures from my original EOS M to Google photos the app will come up with the location of my phone when the photo was taken. I wonder if you use the GPS dongle would it auto transfer over to my iphone kind of silly that camera connect doesn't transfer it over. But when i copy the picture to google photos, the geotags do come across. I noticed that if you use camera connect app to transfer the pictures to my iphones, the geotags don't come across. I tried it but I noticed google photos doesn’t recognize the tags. I hope this experience I had serves others. gpx file to be used in Lightroom or other programs in case a user needs it.įinally, I already learned how to activate the geolocation in the App as Dave Lasker and others helped. gpx files and with the database that I was able to download from the Canon App I was able to recreate my routes and I was finally able to geo-tag my photos.Ĭanon Camera Connect should give the option to download a properly formatted. Of course, I searched the internet on how to properly format the. gpx route, when it is found, it adds the geolocation data to the image. gpx files for geolocation, what it does is compare the time at which the photograph was made and look for a correspondence in the. So I downloaded it and learned that this file had the information not from each one of the photos, but from the routes I did. Thinking about how to recover the data (on the Camera Connect App), I connected my iPhone to iTunes to see if the app offered the option of sharing documents, to my surprise I found Camera Connect allowed me to download a file called CCV2CoreData_01.sqlite.īesides doing photography, I am a programmer so it was very pleasant to see that this ".sqlite" file is nothing else than a database file. That is not possible.įirst of all, thanks to everyone who helped me with my doubts. gpx file and import it into Lightroom, where your GPS history is correlated with your images timestamps.
It sounds like you were trying to use the Canon Camera Connection App as a replacement for an app like GeotagPhotos, where you create a. That is the method that Ali was trying to explain.
If you have an R, search your manual for how to Geotag while using a smartphone. If you have an RP, see page 403 of the instructions. However, you can geotag in real time while shooting images by using the Canon Camera Connection App connected to your camera by Bluetooth. My original post (which I admitted I had not tried) does not work. In the past, I have used a iOS App with no problems: GeotagPhotos, now, I did trust Canon Camera Connect and cannot geotag? Also, the second option of sending location data via WiFi is turned off on my phone. In addition to what Dave mentioned, on EOS R you would have to set Smartphone as the "Select GPS device". I've been using bluetooth connection to my iPhone to get hold of location data, and its working fine. When I connect my phone to my RP and tap "Send Location Information" on my phone, I get an error message that the function is not supported on my camera.
For this to work correctly, the time set in your camera and on your phone musts be the same.ĭisclaimer: I've not actually tried this.Įdit: I tried this, and it does not work. When you eventually download your images from the camera of SD card, they should be geotagged. The timestamps in the log will be matched up with the timestamps on the image files, and the image files in the camera will be geotagged with the locations in the log files. Later, you connect your phone to your camera via wi-fi or bluetooth, and then click the "Send location information" button. I am not aware of any way to access this log from outside of the app. You do not have to be connected to the camera while your locations are being logged. This log is stored internally in the app. My understanding is that "Begin logging" causes the Camera Connect app to keep a log of your locations vs.
