External Devices
The camera's exceptional communication features, as it is Bluetooth enabled and able to communicate with diverse Bluetooth GPS-devices.
External GPS-Receiver
Several GPS receivers are compatible with the RICOH Caplio 500SE. These devices deliver different accuracies, belong to various price levels and are available from different distributors.
Non differential GPS devices
Non differential GPS devices have a significantly lower price than differential ones and deliver an accuracy of 2 to 10 m. They are used in car navigation devices and outdoor GPS receivers like the Garmin eTrex or the Fortuna Slim GPS. The precondition for any connection to the GPS device is that the GPS device is capable of sending NMEA data via Bluetooth and that it takes the slave role in the communication process with the camera. The camera will always take the master role.
Recommended is the Fortuna Slim GPS. It uses a SiRFIII chip and therefore provides a very good reception quality. It is also very small (1/3 the size of a cigarette box) and fits in any pocket.
Professional GPS devices
Professional, differential GPS devices come from the surveying sector and are significantly more expensive than non-differential ones.[1] Due to additional correction signals they can reach accuracies in the range of centimeters. The same Bluetooth preconditions apply as with non differential receivers.
The mobile, Bluetooth enabled GPS device MobileMapper CE from
