GPS Tagging Jobo

Posted by: Jay Garrett in Camera Kit

Jobo GPSThose of you that have been into this kinda thing for more than a year will probably recognise this thing.

It was shown off at last year’s PMA and it’s here again.

It’s designed to attach to your camera’s flash hot shoe and record the GPS information as you shoot. It will then shove all that info onto your images’ EXIF metadata (or XML file in the case of RAW images) when you sync it up - pic tagged, job done.
After a year of touting this thing they say that it is going to find its way into stores by the middle of this year.

It’s likely to be going for around the $160 mark.

    Neat, but to tell you the truth I’d rather have something I can stick in my pocket or clip to my camera bag. I’m just not keen on having and extra bulky item sit on top of the camera.

    Yeah, personally I use my N95 phone and that works reasonably well
