Quick Overview

A great new look and a new low price! Now the GeoPic II looks even better than before, and with a new lower price tag, this cutting edge geotagging technology represents the best value around! Connect this tiny unit to your Nikon DSLR and the GPS location of every shot will be automatically added to the image file. With patent pending low power technology and the ability to geotag whilst indoors, the GeoPic II is the most advanced device of its kind. Make no mistake, this is a vastly more intelligent product than the cheap copies you may see elsewhere, which are no more than a GPS module in a box!

Connect this tiny unit to your Nikon DSLR and the GPS location of every shot will be automatically added to the image file. With patent pending low power technology and the ability to geotag whilst indoors, the GeoPic II is the most advanced device of its kind. Make no mistake, this is a vastly more intelligent product than the cheap copies you may see elsewhere, which are no more than a GPS module in a box! The GeoPic II enjoyed a great review in the March issue of Professional Photographer magazine, scoring 5/5 for performance and 4/5 overall! The GeoPic II sets itself aside from the competiton by having three intelligent modes of operation. One of the key advantages of the GeoPic II is the low power technology we have used in the device, which means your battery lasts longer, much longer. The GeoPic II is now stocked at B&H Photo in the US!

The GeoPic II sets itself aside from the competiton by having three intelligent modes of operation. One of the key advantages of the GeoPic II is the low power technology we have used in the device, which means your battery lasts longer, much longer. Check out the table below to see the operation of the different modes:

Mode Description Photos†
Continuous GPS data is continually sent to the camera when it is available (this is the only mode you get with the competition). 315
Low Power Using patent-pending technology, GPS data is only sent to the camera when you are about to take a picture. This means your battery lasts much longer. 970
Freeze The GPS location is frozen meaning you can continue to geotag photos whilst indoors. In freeze mode the GeoPic II has almost no impact on the camera's battery life at all! 1690
No GeoPic II attached [This value lets you compare the other photo counts with not having the GeoPic II attached at all.] 1750
†Based on 3 large res, basic quality JPEGs taken every 2 minutes - obviously everyone's shooting style is different, but these numbers let you see the relative advantages of the different modes.

Frequently asked questions:

Is the time (in UTC format) from the satellites recorded? Yes it is.
Does the GPS info get recorded for both RAW and JPEG images? It does indeed.
What is the map datum? WGS-84.
What software should I use with my geo-tagged photos? I have used Picasa and Google earth with good success. KUSO Exif Viewer and Opanda also integrate with Google maps which works well. Also, if you import the photos into Adobe's Lightroom program the GPS info is in the metadata section, and to the right of the GPS metadata info is a right pointing arrow: clicking on this arrow immediately launches Google Maps and shows an aerial photo of where the shot was taken. One of our customers recommends Microsoft Expression Media which can handle the GPS data in the EXIF files and show the location in Virtual Earth (http://maps.live.com). If you have used a good program then contact me and I will add it to this FAQ answer.
