Does it have GPS? Looks like it does not was surprised that no one is missing this feature. Also one feature I have missed in the current HX9v that I have is forcing flash to be on. This can only be done in certain modes whereas in auto modes it is not...

No it does not have a GPS on the Sony Cybershot DSC WX350; as for the flash - you can configure this in the configuration and turn it off so that you can turn it when you want it on instead of having it on all the time; and you are correct, some modes, flash is not available such as Panoramic for example. Grandma Rocks! (Vote if this was Helpful! Thanks!)

I have no problem to get GPS signal with my Sony DSC-HX50V/B, as well as with my old Sony DSC-HX30V. I have beatiful photos taken in difficult places like Salar Yuny (Bolivia), Ushuaya (Argentina) e places in the Chilean Andes with GPS positioning and altitude.

Can you post your impression of image quality, movie quality and gps accuracy?I'm very curious on time for gps lock and if you have another source to compare it to for accuracy.

Yes, it does... It is NOT a flash, which is why I bought it for my wife. :-/

Thanks for this info. Not many people use the GPS and so you are the first to input on it. I have ordered a couple more batteries. I will need the GPS alot. I just hope I can figure it out once I get the camera. Stormy

I love how this always works out for me. I wanted this camera for my cruise on the 18th, but went ahead and got the Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS7 12.1 MP Digital Camera with 12x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom and 3.0-Inch LCD (Red) last week because I didn't think the Nikon would be here in time. Now that it's here, what should I do? I like the GPS on the Panasonic, but it takes HORRIBLE low light pics. Any help would be appreciated!

I agree with the comments regarding GPS reception. I recently took this camera to NYC and was unable to get any GPS logging during my trip except when I was at the top of the empire state building! I thought this camera would do a better job than my Sony HX5V since the GPS is supposed to stay active even when the camera is off so I wouldn't need to wait so long when the camera is powered on to take a shot... no such luck. The HX5V still doesn't acquire a signal when indoors and takes a while to get a signal before each shot (when the reception is good), but I'd rather have it than the SX230HS as far as GPS tagging goes.

Can't give specific response about this camera. Can only offer my own reaction vs. built-in flash on RX-100-2...camera flash worked better than HVLF20M, so returned the external unit. Of course, your experience may vary...

The flash is located on top of the camera, to the left as the screen faces you. When you set the flash to auto, does the flash pop up? What mode are you using? iauto?

Just attach the GPS unit to the camera strap as previously mentioned, to use it and the flash. You cannot use the flash with the GPS attached to the hot shoe mount, it gets in the way of the flash popping up.

Looking at the specifications, it appears that it does not have a camera mode. To be absolutely sure I would recommend you call Garmin and ask a technican there.

I just noticed that the question was partially asked in another post:Q: Is there option to turn GPS off? Does this camera include battery, charger and memory card? A: This camera includeds the battery and charger. As for the memory card, it don't come with one. The gps can be turned off if you want it to be off.Also, there is a lot of information given buy users - and be sure to check the "comments" for the negative reviews. This camera got great reviews even from camera review sites.

It has GPS, but most people found the software implementation to be seriously lacking. It takes a while to update your position. I've read that this has been fixed in the FroYo pre-release that was leaked, though, so it may be better once the official release hits in September.

I have the pentax with gps. I hate to be so in the middle, but it is ok, but not worth the money. it really only puts gps co-ords on the pics. u really can't navigate with it. so if u like to say it has gps, get it, otherwise don't worry about it.
