For example, there is only one status indicator that either blinks fast green when it has NOT locked on to a satellite or slow green when it has.

However, there is definitely room for improvement. So far it works as advertised and it’s very easy to use. Here’s the GPS data showing for that shot in Adobe Photoshop LightroomĪfter clicking the "Map Location" button in Lightroom, I was taken directly to a satellite view in Google Maps. From there I can do all the great things that Lightroom allows me to do, but I can also bring up any image in Lightroom and not only see the GPS longitude and latitude, but I can also click one button that automatically takes me to those coordinates in Google Maps and gives me a satellite view of where the shot was taken. Once the images have the GPS data imported into them, I then import (reference) the images into Lightroom. The 3rd step in the app is to click that actually writes the GPS data to the. DNG files and then the Sony GPS log file that contains all the GPS data. I then use the HoudaGeo app to import the. DNG files directly from the memory card into a folder on my drive.

However, when I shoot landscapes and want to use the GPS data from the Sony GPS, I plug in my memory card into my Mac and then I use the FREE Adobe DNG Converter ( Mac| Win)to convert my Nikon’s proprietary. Normally I would just import my images directly into Adobe Photoshop Lightroom. The HoudaGeo app can’t embed the GPS data in proprietary RAW formats anyway. DNG format (an open standard for Camera RAW files). Since I shoot primarily in Camera RAW and that there are no two camera manufacturers use the same RAW format, I use Adobe’s Digital Negative. Since your camera is recording the date and time (very important that you have these set correctly in your camera) of every shot and the Sony GPS is recording the date and time coordinates at the same time all you have to do is match the images with the GPS log file when you return to your computer. Then you pick up your camera and start shooting. It starts a new log file on the device itself and once it connects to a GPS satellite it starts recording your coordinates and the time/date everywhere you go. The concept is simple: You go out on a shoot (outside of course) and you turn on the Sony GPS. So Colin turned me on to HoudaGeo which is a $30 Mac app that does just that.

So I had to ask, "does it work?" and more importantly, "would you buy it again?" His answers to both questions were YES! Then my next question was (knowing Colin is a Mac user), what app on the Mac did he use to marry the GPS data to the images? You see the Sony GPS comes with an app to add the GPS data that it captures to your images, however it’s Windows only.

So I kind of forgot about it until a few weeks ago when I was having dinner with my colleagues and Colin Fleming told me that he had one. Some were complaining that it didn’t work that well especially around tall buildings. However, when I read the reviews on I was a little less excited. I actually first saw this unit about a year ago. Sony Unit for Digital Still Cameras that I was quite intrigued. So it’s quite natural that when I learned about this
