Comments about Sony GPS-CS1KA GPS Imager Tracker:
I was excited about the concept of this product, but unfortunately, it doesn't perform. I took this product with me all over the state, and photographed street signs to test its accuracy.
Nearly all photos were logged as being taken from a highway, that I spent about 5 minutes on out of the whole day. I also brought the product with me across the country, to a major landmark, and it told me the photos were taken much further away than I really was.
It is a great idea, and I wish it really did work. I give the product one star only because the template requires it.

It does everything as advertised but....(1) It does not work with RAW files or RAW files that have been converted to JPG. My Nikon D80 can take RAW and JPG at the same time so I am good... I also suggest you import the GPS data into your JPG files before you edit them (just in case).(2) It has signal issues if you use it inside a car. It really needs to be up on the dash to get a reliable signal.(3) It uses GMT time, so I had issues getting it to align with our daylight savings time. Especially since ours changed. Personally, I Set the device and the camera to GMT0 with no adjustments for daylight savings time. This way they are always the same.(3) It comes with a plastic clip for your belt which didn't last long. I suggest using a metal one. I got a black at the[...]that works great.What I love....(1) It works great in a small plane doing aerial shots, it works great exploring in the woods.(2) The software is a small install and is very easy to use.(3) The GPS stamping it puts in your photos is directly compatible with Yahoo Maps, Google Earth, and Flickr, which is great for me. When I upload my images to Flickr they automatically get geomapped and tagged. That alone was worth the price.
