I connect mine (a Garmin 60CSx) to my Nikon D200 camera. Each photograph has the camera location recorded, and can be viewed using Goggle Earth or Panoramio. You will never have to wonder where that photograph was taken!


Tell me more! Does this work with any/all Nikon dSLR cameras, ie. D50 ? I don't own a 60CSx but plan on buying one soon.

Hi CA: Does the GPS unit help locate diesel fuel and food stops for over size vehicles? Jim2007


No, not the one I have, though I've heard tell there is a model for 'truckers' that provides additional info, such as bridge/overpass height.

I don't believe the MC-35 adapter cable from Nikon will work with the D50, but you can still add GPS data to the images from any digital camera (including point & shoot) using products like Robogeo or Geosetter. You download a track from your GPS & using the software match the time recorded in the track with the time in the EXIF data of your image, & the software adds the locations to the EXIF data. You do need to sync the clocks in the camera with the GPS to get an exact location,
