You can check the atmospheric pressure as well as the altitude or water depth
of the current position on the screen, and record the displayed values to the

•
The altitude, water depth, and atmospheric pressure that are recorded to
images can be imprinted on the images by using
Data imprint

Notes About Altimeter and Depth Gauge
•
Use
Alt./depth correction
in
Altitude/depth options
(
118) in the location
data options menu to correct the altitude or water depth in advance. Before using
the camera underwater, make sure to adjust the data to 0 m (0 ft) at the surface of
water.
•
Do not use the altimeter or depth gauge in this camera for specialized applications
such as mountain climbing or underwater diving. The displayed information is
intended as a general guide only.
•
Since the altitude is calculated using the camera's internal barometer, the data may
not be displayed correctly in some climate conditions.
•
When the scale of the depth gauge display exceeds 25 m (82 ft), the depth gauge
display turns orange. When the scale of the depth gauge display exceeds 30 m (98
ft), the depth gauge display turns red.
C
Altitude/Water Depth
•
The altimeter or depth gauge can be
displayed when
Altimeter/depth gauge
in
Altitude/depth options
in the location
data options menu is set to
On
(default
setting).
•
The depth gauge and water depth are
displayed when you select
Underwater
scene mode, or select
x
(scene auto
selector) mode and then submerge the
camera underwater. If the camera is not
being used underwater when
Underwater
is selected, the depth gauge display is fixed
at 0 m (0 ft).
•
The display range of the altitude is -300 m
to +4500 m (-984 to +14,760 ft), and the
display range of the water depth is 0 m to 35 m (0 ft to 114 ft).
•
When altitude or water depth is corrected,
i
is displayed next to the altitude or
water depth.
