Nikon GPS DIY 最后成品

UncategorizedEdward945 views收藏、分享

上次说到主要是DIY的线路部分，还没有最后封装。在北京西路的科技京城淘到一个塑料小盒子，尺寸是 6cm x 3.5cm x 1.4 cm，黑色。差不多，其实可以找到更小的。3.5cm的宽度是外径，内径大约是32mm，而GPS的芯片PCB基板宽度是3.42，需要用三角锉把PCB左右两侧磨去2.2mm。

在盒子短边一侧，根据线缆宽度用美工刀开一个口子，让MC-35的线缆通过，在侧边合适位置，用热的铁钉穿一个孔，通过小孔可以看到GPS芯片上的电源指示发光二极管的光，知道GPS的状态。最后在陶瓷天线一面贴上一点东西标识天线方向，就大功告成了。

拿到窗台热启动约3-5秒就能收到信号。在机身上的信息窗口中的GPS标识常亮。关于固定，我偏向于用夹子夹在背带上，个人不喜欢热靴的固定方式。

    不知道D200或者D300是否支持蓝牙，要是能用蓝牙来连接GPS就完美了

    D200/D300/D2x/D3 don’t support BT directly, because BT adapter consume battery a lot. But you still can find a very tiny BT adapter that can be docked on camera body with 10pin interface. Of coz, the price is 279 USD for adapter only, tax excluded I guess.

    Hi Bryan, I have seen your product introduction on Xitek. But seems list price is tooo high. I don’t know how you resolve the battery issue or not. That’s the key of this solution. In present, I am using a GPS logger for geotagging, also I wrote an application for that.
