Poor HW |
I bought my Sony GPS in Kyoto while visiting Japan. My wish was to both use it for tagging my photos with position, and at the same time get an overview where I went to which time. The problem I experienced was that it is a bit inaccurate, especially while walking in the city with tall buildings, in parks with trees or being in a car, train or airplane (keeping it against the windows). That means that it gave me a hard time while I was staying in Japan, because I was just in these kind of environments. My pictures got offset from where they actually were taken and there were big "jumps" in my trails. I suspect that the GPS does not have the HW it takes.
For the SW application I can't say whether it is good or not, as it was all in japanese. So in case it would be brilliant, I've rated this product as 3. Else I would not hesitate to rate it as a 2.

It works |
|
This is a handy little electronic "toy" that may not be a must-have, but very useful none the less. I use only Sony video and Sony still cameras so it works perfectly for me and my equipment. I don't know if I would buy it if I used other manufacturers cameras, but Sony says that it should work with others. At one time it WAS overpriced, but for around $100 it is now more competative. There are other products like this out there, but I wanted to stay with Sony due to my cameras being Sony. I have this mounted on my motorcycle and took a test ride with it. The resulting GPS-mapped route was perfect. |
