I'll post the link when I'm not lazy. Which may not be till tomorrow.
great, thank you. btw what are they called, exactly?
GPS photo-taggers?
GPS geo-taggers....?
etc.?

....the only one i've seen yet was way to cumbersome, it required you to remove memory card after every set of pics at a location, plug into GPS unit, it wrote data on pics, then memory card back into camera...
sounds OK for an on-site shooting event, i.e. at the same building or whatnot, but horrible for, say, a motorcycle ride or nature pictures..
thanks
