D Cautions: Track Logs
Track logs will not be r
ecorded if the camera clock is not set or if no memory card is inserted.
To prevent logs being interrupted, be sure the camera battery is fully charged.
Tracking ends if:
the camera battery runs low,
the battery is removed, or
[OFF] is selected for [Location data (built-in)]> [Record location data].
Location data will not be logged while the camera is unable to acquire a satellite signal.
D Track Logs
The time remaining appears in the [Location data (built-in)] display while logging is in progress.
Logs are not interrupted when the camera is turned off or the standby timer expires. Be sure to
monitor the battery level while logging is in progress.
Logs are stored in the “NIKON”> “GNSS” folder on the memory card and have names of the
form “Nyymmddx.log”. Here “yy” is the last two digits of the current year, “mm” the month, “dd”
the day, “x” a single-character identifier from 0 (zero) to Z assigned in ascending order by the
camera, and “.log” the extension (thus the first log recorded on October 15, 2021, will be named
“N2110150.log”).
Logs are in NMEA format. There is however no guarantee that they will display correctly in all
software or on all devices.
Tip: SnapBridge
You can also use the SnapBridge app to download location data to the camera from a smartphone
or tablet (smart device) via a wireless link even when location data cannot be acquired using the
camera’s built-in location data unit. See SnapBridge online help for details.
Location data downloaded from the smart device will be recorded with pictures even if [OFF] is
selected for [Location data (built-in)]> [Record location data]. Location data recording can be
ended by disabling the location data feature in the SnapBridge app.
