Re: Problems with GPS tagging with new version of camera connect (R5)

If turning your camera off and on between locations you have a workable solution IMO. The alternative is a clunky thing on your hot-shoe or a hassle to merge phone data in post.

I have the GP-E2 for your hot shoe. It is expensive and bulky. I got the EOS R cameras after Covid came out in 2020 so my traveling has been limited in the last few years.

The 5D mk IV, 7D mk 2 and 6D mk 2 are great old school dslr and they has GPS built in. It sure was nice. Now only the expensive R3 of the Canon mirrorless cameras has built-in GPS.
