Globalsat GPS Data Logger I basically had the choice between this one and the Sony GPS CS1KA. After reading this review of the DG-100 (with a comparison to the Sony) I opted for the Globalsat one and found an online shop in Germany.

Two days later I got that beast. First test are quite impressive (haven’t tried to geo tag photos though). Only thing I found so far is that it takes quite a long time to come online, lock the sats and start recording.

Another pay-off compared to the Sony is that no geo tagging software is included, but there is a lot of stuff on the market. I will try them later on.

I am now very curious how this will work out for the photos on our Scotland trip…
