Stig, Sorry about late reply. Thanks for the offer on the GPS log files, but in case of Greenwich I think I have pretty good control on the placenames. :-)
I wasn't aware that GPS enabled cellphones were that cheap now. Thanks for the tip! Makes me regret buying the GlobalSat unit since my old phone is falling apart. :-( Did a test run today of the GlobalSat today, btw, with subsequent computer uploading and matching. I used GeoSetter to merge the GPS data (from a *.gpx file) into the DNG files, and Lightroom assimilated the new metadata without glitch. But I still have the tiniest tinge of envy of the Nikon GPS that attaches directly to camera and writes into the raw files directly. Jostein 2009/10/16 SV Hovland <p...@heime.org>: > Yes, looks nice.
