Calling all Photographers.

[Olazz]

Ok for all you Photography fundi's out there:!

I have a Canon 7D with various bits of kit, and I wouldlike to add geotagging to my photos.
Ideally I'd like a simple solution that doesn't have me spending hours editing or matching GPS data with photos I've taken.

So can anyone tell me whats a good solution to this?

Marius?
Dark Dude?

Anyone else?

EDIT.... I have found photo track GPS which is what I was thinking of buying http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RRCOYOUThQI

On a serious note, I've seen gadgets which you keep with you. With it and software everything is tagged based on time. I'll try find it when I'm back in the land of the living.

I am really not following how this device connects to the camera?
How does it know when you have just took a picture?

Or am I expecting too much?

Doesn't Graham. That is what I was talking about. This thing constantly logs where you are and time. Then using some software on your computer, it matches the time your pictures where taken with it's log files and geo-tags them.

If you do use this, make very sure the date and time is correct on your camera.

Also understand how the device deals with changes in time timezones. If it always logs local time but your camera does not change, it won't work. Should say in the instructions or ask Chas

Have a look at this web site.

It looks like you will need to get the Canon WFT-E5 Wireless for the 7D. If I were you I would talk to my local Canon representative to absolutely sure I get the correct equipment.

Ja guys, but I've got a proper camera!

Ja guys, but I've got a proper camera!

Ignore them all, you have the right make and model

Can't help with geo-tagging though

 

[Dark Dude]

I'm sure Eye Fi Cards are capable of geo-tagging files. For more information go to the Eye Fi website:

Just found this on the web: Lots of useful information here:

Hope it helps.

Thanks for the links and tips guys.

Not sure I've found exactly what I want yet, and it may not be possible, without spending time syncing tracks and pics on a laptop. Just what I didn't want to do though.

I use Touratech for mapping and I'm pretty certain it has a Geotagging facility because I know that you can post up photos and track to Google Earth.

Also look at Picasa - if the route is on Google Earth I think you can then tag your photos.

I'd have to check this but I'm almost sure that Picasa can be used along with Eye Fi to Geotag your images.....
