Featuring convenient, simple to use equatorial telescope functions, the O-GPS2 allows easy filing of recorded images using location data such as shooting location and the camera's direction.

Simply by mounting the O-GPS2 accessory GPS unit onto the hotshoe of a compatible PENTAX digital SLR camera, you can record the latitude, longitude, altitude, universal time coordinated (UTC) and aspect of shooting locations onto captured images. Receiving satellites include GPS, SBAS, OZSS, GLONASS, and Galileo. Image files carrying the location data can be used to track shooting locations and review location data on a computer. The location data stored on these files also makes it much easier to sort and file recorded images. By coupling location data with the camera's SR (Shake Reduction) system, this GPS unit offers a range of innovative, PENTAX- original applications, including ASTROTRACER, Simple Navigation and Electronic Compass.

Three innovative features to complement standard GPS functions.


ASTROTRACER The advanced ASTROTRACER function simplifies astrophotography. It couples the unit with the camera’s SR (Shake Reduction) system for the effortless tracing and photographing of celestial bodies. The O-GPS2 calculates the movement of celestial bodies using the latitude obtained from the location data and the camera's alignment data detected by the electronic compass and acceleration sensors. It then shifts the camera's image sensor in synchronization with the movement of the objects. In the resulting image, stars and other bodies are captured as solid points rather than blurry streaks, even during extended exposures.	Simple Navigation This function linearly navigates you to a desired location by calculating the direction and distance from the current position to the destination.	Electronic Compass This function accurately displays the camera's direction at the time of shooting on the camera's LCD monitor.

ASTROTRACER


ASTROTRACER : OFF	ASTROTRACER: Type 1 ASTROTRACER: Type 1 shifts the camera's image sensor in synchronization with the movements of stars (diurnal motion) to prioritize the celestial bodies and stars to be captured as solid points.	ASTROTRACER: Type 2 ASTROTRACER: Type 2 shifts the camera's image sensor at half the speed of Type 1 in synchronization with the movements of stars to prioritize capturing the landscape and stars in a good balance. Compatible model: K-3Mark Ill

Calibration : Before each use, the O-GPS2 must be calibrated for optimum results.

Calibration is a means of properly adjusting the O-GPS 2's setup so the GPS unit can obtain accurate location data. The O-GPS 2 must be calibrated before shooting images which require direction information, such as ASTROTRACER.

There are two types of calibration: simple calibration for general use, and "high-precision calibration" for the ASTROTRACER function.

Calibration

Recall the calibration screen from the camera's main menu and move the camera as instructed in the illustration.

Designed for use with PENTAX digital SLR cameras, the O-GPS2 is a versatile GPS unit that not only gives basic location data, but also offers an array of original features that allow for the effortless tracking and photographing of celestial bodies. In addition to GPS in the US, QZSS in Japan, GLONASS and Galileo can be newly received. Simply by mounting the PENTAX O-GPS2 onto the hotshoe of a compatible PENTAX digital SLR camera*, the user can record the latitude, longitude, altitude, universal time coordinated (UTC) and aspect of shooting locations onto captured images. Image files carrying the location data, can be used to track shooting locations and review location data on a PC. The location data stored on such files also makes it much easier to sort and file recorded images. By coupling the location data with the camera’s SR (Shake Reduction) system, the unit offers a range of unique, advanced applications, including ASTROTRACER, Simple Navigation and Electronic Compass. * Compatible models are the PENTXA K-3 Mark III, KP, K-3, K-5II, K-5IIs, K-5, K-S2, K-S1, K-70, K-50, K-30, K-r, K-01, 645Z, 645D (as of May 2022). All applications will not support all models. "

The O-GPS2 is compatible with the PENTAX K-3 Mark III, KP, K-3, K-5II, K-5IIs, K-5, K-S2, K-S1, K-70, K-50, K-30, K-r, K-01, 645Z, 645D (as of May 2022). All applications will not support all models. Independent power source (one AAA-size battery) eliminates the need for power supply from the camera body. The O-GPS2 has weather-resistant construction for use in light rain. The O-GPS2 comes equipped with an Electronic Compass function, which displays the camera’s direction on its LCD monitor with great precision. The O-GPS2 offers a Simple Navigation function, which calculates the direction and distance to a given destination from the current position. When mounted on a compatible PENTAX digital SLR camera body*, the O-GPS2 offers the advanced ASTROTRACER function which couples the unit with the camera’s SR (Shake Reduction) system for the effortless tracing and photographing of celestial bodies. The O-GPS2 mounts on the hotshoe of a compatible PENTAX digital SLR camera and records the latitude, longitude, altitude, universal time coordinated (UTC) and direction of the shooting location onto captured images.
