Originally posted by Rondec I have always thought the GPS data was more for personal use and easily stripped out of the exif in applications like Lightroom. At least that has been my practice.
You are aware that your cell phone is interactive and every cell phone keystroke you make is recorded in real time by your cell phone provider? Plus, every word, sentence and cell tower location ping is analyzed by an AI algorithm, then packaged by your provider, or Google, Facebook, Apple, et al. and sold to someone else so they can target market you. Linking your cell phone to your camera gives those busybodies a real time window into your and your subject’s lifestyle.
O-GPS1 provides GPS input that does NOT require interaction; that is, it geolocates you by listening for pings from satellites. It does NOT tell the satellite anything. As such, you stay in control of things.
If you value your privacy and the privacy of your innocent subjects, why would you ever link your cell phone to your camera?
