Tweet

The photographers and videographers amongst you who relish the thought of automatically tagging stills images and videos with location data gained via GPS may be interested in the successor to the previously featured Sony CS1 geotaging device, the Sony GPS-CS3KA, which has just surfaced with absolutely none of the fanfare normally reserved for new Sony releases.

Billed as being compatible with most CyberShot cameras and camcorders as well as with virtually any video or stills camera (though specific compatibility details with non-Sony devices is distinctly lacking), the Sony GPS-CS3KA GPS Photo Tagger (or GPS Image Tracker, as its officially known) is capable of recording the location, date and time with each shot that’s captured and works in combination with the supplied Picture Motion Browser PC software to synchronise all your photos with latitude, longitude and time of capture data which are subsequently also added as push-pin points via Google Maps allowing you to keep extremely accurate information concerning where each and every image was captured, as well as the exact time of capture.

The Sony GPS-CS3KA GPS Photo Tagger offers a battery life of up to a purported 15 hours and comes complete with MS/SD card slot and is currently listed as available to pre-order from Amazon in the US for just shy of $150 in advance of it shipping on or around 29 March 09.
