Memory maker ATP has launched what it describes as: "the World's most easy-to-use Geotagging device." The Photo Finder is a portable GPS receiver that can automatically sync its data with the photos from your digital camera, without the need for a computer.


This is interesting--Imbed your exact location into your photo info file--overlays onto Google Earth, etc.


Pre-PMA 2008: Memory maker ATP has launched what it describes as: "the World's most easy-to-use Geotagging device." The Photo Finder is a portable GPS receiver that can automatically sync its data with the photos from your digital camera, without the need for a computer.


The pocket-sized receiver keeps track of where you go and, so long as you've synchronized your camera with the clock on the Photo Finder, will match up your photos with where you were when you took them. Inserting an SD, SDHC, MMC or Memory Stick PRO Duo card allows the device to embed this location information into the EXIF metadata of the images on the card.


The receiver runs on two AAA batteries and is about the size of a deck of cards. Photo Finder is compatible with "most of the digital cameras on the market," the company says. The data it writes can be read by software such as Google's Picasa 2 and Google Earth packages. The Photo Finder has a margin-of-error of around 10m and comes with 128MB of flash memory - enough for 550 hours' worth of tracking while a pair of alkaline AA batteries will provide around 8 hours runtime.
