I want to use a GPS to record the location where I took a picture. Do any of
you know of one that records the location, and time when the waypoint is marked? |

Not having a GPS, I thought that was a standard feature. If it isn't, you might want to check out: http://oziphototool.alistairdickie.com/ which integrates GPS waypoint data with EXIF information, and would probably list GPSes that provide the information. -- Michael Meissner email: http://www.the-meissners.org |

When you hit the Mark button, it will save away the exact lat/long data, and then it will save an arbitrary number or else the custom name that you enter in. ---Bob Gross--- |

Just about all GPS receivers do this, as far as I know. If you're talking about a camera with integrated GPS stamping of images, I know that they exist (I think Kodak makes/made one), but I don't have details. -- Transpose hotmail and mxsmanic in my e-mail address to reach me directly. |

Any GPS you buy new will record location very easily. But, I don't know one that will record the time. They could easily do so, since they have to know the time to function at all.

I had to go check, but my Magellan GPS 315 does record the date and time for waypoints. It makes sense since it has to know the exact date and time to determine the location. It is not on all the displays however. I had to look to find it. I have found some interesting uses for it. For example my girlfriend is into genealogy and I am able to not only find small graveyards on old maps that are now in the back 40 of some farmer's fields, but I am able to then mark the exact spot of a specific stone so the location can be found later. The time and date was has not been all that important, but now, I know I can mark and photograph a item and not bother making up a name or writing down information at that time because, I can figure it out later by using the time on the GPS and Photo. -- Joseph E.
