LOGGING THE SHOOTING LOCATION

(ONLY IN CONNECTION WITH THE LEICA FOTOS APP)

Location information can be sourced from a mobile device in con-

nection with the Leica FOTOS app. Current location information will

then be written to the Exif data of the images (geotagging).

Activating GPS functions on a mobile device

Activate Leica FOTOS and connect to the camera (see chapter

“Leica FOTOS”)

Activate geotagging for this camera in Leica FOTOS
• We recommend choosing the

 Always 

option to ensure continuous

geolocation for up to the minute location information.

Notes

• The use of GPS and associated technologies may be restricted in

some countries or regions. Violations will be prosecuted by local

authorities. You should therefore contact your travel agent or

the embassy of your destination country for relevant information

beforehand.

• It will take a few seconds for the Bluetooth connection to estab-

lish. The configured shutdown time should be considered when

choosing a delay time if shutdown is enabled in the camera.

• All images with location information are marked with the geotag-

ging icon in review mode.

GEOTAGGING STATUS

The status of existing location information is displayed on screen,

provided the info bars are displayed and geotagging is enabled. The

status screen will always show the current geotagging status.

The location information is current (most recent

geolocation max. 15 mins prior).
The location information is not necessarily current

anymore (most recent geolocation max. 12 h prior).
The available location information is outdated (most

recent geolocation more than 12 h in the past).
No location data will be written to Exif data.

No icon

Geotagging is deactivated.

Location information will be continuously updated as long as the

camera is connected to Leica FOTOS. The Bluetooth function of the

camera and the mobile device must therefore remain enabled to

ensure latest information. It is, however, not necessary for the app to

be running in the foreground.
