Can you explain the GPS function better? Can you see the MAP of your location on the CAMERA SCREEN? Or just when connected to computer?

When it came to the GPS function, I didnt really find it helpful. The map on the camera does not show you pin point where you are. Its just a map unless I did it wrong. It does come with a disk to download but I didnt do that either. I think it supposed to GPS tag your photo but I didnt see that either so I just treat it as a camera without GPS.

I have used the WiFi several times, but have yet to note the GPS feature on the Coolpix. The small Manual that came with the camera does not mention it either. I just went through the settings menu and see no mention of GPS, which I do have on my D7100 Nikon.

It functions by GPS Technology, it has a button you can push and store your location and the go to http://www.gpsangel.com/index.php?page_id=4&sid;=&lat;=32.756599426&lon;=-97.135841370&zoom;=10&zip;=76012And enter a zip code and address that you saved and you have a red light camera at that location then when you get to that location it will beep and flash like there is a red light camera there. Since it is a Basic GPS Location device it should work any-where, it will store the GPS coordinates like waypoints you can leave the stored location in the unit you don't have to up load to their data base.

There is a screen saver that shows both compas direction and speed, but on the video as you asked, it is not there. There are actually two files produced while driving, one of them is the video with time showing, there is another that is used to show your location and speed. Of course you do need the GPS add on which does not come with this. I have also purchased the http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FQFHZAC/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and it is smaller, same specs, and comes with GPS.

I dont think you can really visualize that though. I'm guessing that the location is constantly being updated in your system but the screen/map might not reflect that. Also i think it depends on your resolution and the aspect of your current screen (ie, how detailed is the map being shown, is it in a street view or is it in a city view, etc). It wouldn't make sense if you are in a "zoomed-out" view and your car icon is constantly (2,3 times in a second) being refreshed and moves. Unless you are driving at like 200mph or using your GPS on an airplane...

Thanks for telling me that. I haven't used the GPS much after that time. I think I need to read the manual when I have time. :)

The bushnell gps only marks way points. It does not display your route on the device. It will show you the marked way points and the direction to get to them in a stright line. You will have to up load your route from the device to your computer to see the exact route you have taken. Remember when useing the device to back track a route, it shows direction only in a stright line and not the twists, turns and you have taken nor the obsticles you avoided.

When you plug it in to your computer, the Cobra will download all the latest camera locations. GPS will need to be working while driving and then it will indicate you are getting close to a known camera location.

Hmm i guess it says there is GPS in the title. How does it work?? I have this product. I also don't know how to update the information.

No, it is only an radio receiver with DVD, and you may plug outside cameras, USB. Navigation works for specific maps and locations

As far as I can tell, the maps are current. You get regular updates after you register your GPS (just log in with it connected to your computer).

I was going to buy this camera mainly because of GPS feature. Any update on GPS signal?

The Gps is very good. I'm not sure how to answer your questions other than it seems to work great and kowm how hug it is at all time.

No. This device is only a camera. The GPS exits solely to "print" the current latitude, longitude, and speed onto the video. It also automatically sets the date and time for you. The GPS data is not maintained as a separate file.

The GPS feature is associated with tagging the recorded event at the start only. When it is selected in the playback function it displays points on a map of all the videos clips it has in memory. I don't believe there is anyway to access this info in real time while a clip is playing or if there is any other way to use this info other than on the camera. It's a nice feature but not very useful to me. I just love the clarity and 3D.

Nothing that I've noticed except for a slightly smaller screen. I travel a lot off of recognizable roads that are on the garmin maps but the "tracks feature" draws a line everywhere I've driven even if the GPS does not recognize a road.

It worked without problem for me. You don't have to connect the camera to your computer. I downloaded the file, created a top-level folder "NIKON" and simply copied the downloaded file ("NML_28A.ee") into it. Go to Setup menu -> Location Data -> GPS options -> Update A-GPS data.
