SLR cameras - Canon 50D + geotagging

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

Anyone on here use either the Canon 50D or a 5D or a 1D? Any feedback on using them?

 

Looking into how I can start geo-tagging my photos, it seems I can't with a 500D and I'd need to at minimum buy a 50D body, then get a WFT-E3A module by the looks of it.

 

Or does anyone know an easier way to geotag photos with an EOS? Most threads on the net seem to date back to 2009 and I'm surprised the technology doesn't appear to have moved on.

 

Cheapest I've found a 50D body is £619 at the moment, I'm sure someone on here also worked for Canon but can't for the life of me recall who it was :(

 

Cheers

Si

Hello Si

 

I'm using the 7D, but I'm not doing Geo tagging with it.

 

As far as using the 7D goes, I love it.

 

The 50D should be very nice to use too. If there's anything in particular you'd like to know (other than Geo tagging) just ask, as 50D & 7D have a similar(ish) spec.

 

Also, if you haven't tried it yet - http://www.talkphotography.co.uk is a great site.

 

Do a search on there etc...
