Well, following up on my previous post, I tried to email Nikon my GPS idea, but I can’t get in to the damn email system. It seems that you cannot email a service request without logging in. Problem is, the site recognizes my email, but won’t let me log in or email my password. So, rather than waste more vacation time (it’s good to be a teacher), I’ll just post my email here (for posterity?) and try again later (that way, I won’t lose it…):
This is not actually a tech question, but a request for new features - I just couldn't find the appropriate spot.
How about putting GPS into cameras and recording date/time/place in the metadata. Think about it: sites like Flickr allow you to post photos on a map - having GPS info would do that automatically.
Take the Twitter idea even further: although you may not be able to upload directly from a camera in real-time, you would be able to upload a photostrip of your day's shoot. Or, even bigger, a photostrip of your life. This can be uploaded and we get a continuous visual interpretation of what our world looks like, from the individuals living in it (and capturing it, with Nikon products, of course).
I am not looking for any compensation, just for someone with the know-how (you) to make it, so someone with a credit card (me) can buy it. (Of course, if you wanted to send one to me as a tester, I wouldn't complain.)
Thanks,
