Re: Problem with R6 and Camera Connect (iPhone) GPS Tagging

For me, I have always seen this “coordinate freezing” behavior with Camera Connect and my R and R5. It was pointed out on a forum post (I don’t remember when or by whom) that this occurs if you turn off the camera and turn it back on without restarting the app. As a rule, this has solved my problem: if I’m only moving a short distance I leave the camera on, and if I turn the camera off, I’ll shut down the app and restart it once the camera is powered. Not the smoothest operation but it has worked.

The last time I used the app with this technique was about 2 weeks ago and it did record the proper coordinates as I moved along a river. I don’t really remember when I updated iOS versus used the app.
