Wireless Bluetooth Gps Receiver

I first got one of these for my laptop at work when I started having an entrapped ulnar nerve and wanted a more ergonomic workstation. At first, I tried a Microsoft bluetooth mouse which cost more and would constantly disconnect and require setting up so I did a little research and got the M310. One reason I wanted bluetooth was because the last time I bought a wireless mouse/keyboard (also from Logitech), the receiver was huge and had to be hidden. It also had very low range. To my surprise, the nano receiver with the new M310 is really small - nano if you will, but has much more range than the old style wireless mice. Just for giggles, I was trying it across the room and it still worked. I just leave the nano receiver in the USB port of my laptop all the time and it still fits in my bag. While I was going through painful cortisone injections which did little to help my gimp wrist, I was also happy to use this mouse on either left or right hand as it works both ways (giggity). It's really an elegant design. It's also very light, uses only one AA battery, and battery life is about a year. I liked it so much that now that my wrist is better due to stretching exercises I found on youtube from doctors (which may or may not be legit), I got one for my desktop workstation too which up till then had a wired mouse. It's time to evolve. I'm curious whether the receiver/mouse pairings can be updated in case one or the other is lost.

Very good Bluetooth receiver.

We travel a lot and take photos in many locations. This GPS receiver makes keeping up with where the photos were taken a snap.

I would like it if they could sell just the receiver so I could have two wireless signals.

Great sounding receiver ....AWESOME with my Bluetooth

I bought this receiver for the Bluetooth connectivity. I am now able to play my iTunes songs from the iTunes cloud through my iPhone and the new Receiver to our inside and / or outside speakers - all from my lounge chair. I am handicapped, so this is of great help to me.

This receiver does exactly what I was hoping it would do...automatically capture the GPS coordinates of my photos. It sure saves a lot of time vs. guessing exactly where I was at the time. I am loving it.

I added the GPS receiver to my Thinkware dash cam. Camera recognized the receiver and is consistently working within a few seconds.

So after 128 days of waiting, I finally got one and am happy that it is here. The device is roughly the length and width of the LCD screen on the back of my 5DIII, and at it's thinnest point about half and inch and at its thickest point (where it connects to the hotshoe) it is roughly an inch. It comes with a solid case made of ballistic nylon for the unit itself, and another microfiber pouch is included that can hold the receiver itself along with the cables. Unfortunately, it did not come with a battery so I had to make a run to ABC for a pack of AAs.Use is super easy. After installing the battery, I just snapped it on to the hotshoe of my 5DIII and flicked the switch to on. I was cruising through the tall buildings of Waikiki Beach and it acquired a signal in a snap. The on screen soft menu for the receiver is in the 2nd page of the setup menu. It includes an auto update to the time function, sampling rate settings, and a digital compass setting. All very straight forward. All you do from there is verify the GPS icon is on the top LCD and shoot away.After I shot about 50 test shots I headed home and uploaded to Aperture 3. With no deviation to my normal routine I transferred all the shots from the camera and viola! Each shot had a GPS location embedded as meta data.I realize there are many way to accomplish this task, however, this gizmo made it super easy. If you've got the cash, pull the trigger, it's a cool and nice convenience if you want GPS data tagged on your images.

I have a Canon 1D which has the GPS receiver within it, and love the ability to know where I took a picture. I also have a Canon 5D which does not have this feature. I bought this to add this data to my camera shoots. I also am glad to know I will be able to use it with the Canon R5 which I intend to buy in the near future.
