Although the Samsung HZ36W is not the first of its kind to feature geotagging, it is certainly good to see that more consumer-level digital cameras are adopting geotagging. It features a 12-megapixel sensor and a whopping 15x optical zoom. One of its main features is the large 3.0″ AMOLED (Active Matrix Organic light emitting diode) more »

Click for a larger image. Geotagging is something plenty of people do their photos.

“Every breath you take… Every move you make… Every bond you break… Every step you take.. I’ll be watching you.” Is it the end of privacy as we know it? People knowing where we are, and when we are there, seeing whatever it is we are doing. Or, just a cool and fun new way to geotag? Geotagging is nothing new and most of us are familiar with the term by now. Take a photo, and “tag” your location to tell all your friends or family where you were at when you shot it. But now, tagged single shots are going to seem like dinosaurs.

In days past, photographers had to rely on their memory to answer the question “where did I take this shot?”. Not so any more. Geotagging is fast becoming popular in the days of digital photography. By definition, Geotagging is the process of adding a form of geospatial geographical identification metadata to your images. It can also be added to other media like websites or RSS feeds. This metadata almost always consists of latitude and longitude coordinates; although it can sometimes also include things like altitude, bearing, or even location names depending on how specific you want to get.

Geotagging can also be useful if you are looking for location-specific information. For example, you are trying to find images taken near Red Rock Canyon. You simply enter the latitude and longitude coordinates into a Geotagging-enabled image search engine. There you go! These same search engines can also be used to locate location-based news, websites and more.

The FCC has just approved Nokia’s newest cameraphone, the N6220 classic which doesn’t look like any of the latest N-series mobile phones. But what the 6220 lacks in the trendy physical design, it made up through its high-end features. Topping the list of these features are a whooping 5-megapixel camera with Xenon flash, GPS and the latest version of the S60 operating system.

The Nokia 6220 either make the other Nokia high end phones pale in comparison or match them up with its own powerful features. The 6220 is better than the Nokia N82 with its built-in geotagging which will embed location of the 6220 users whenever there is a GPS signal in that location. The 6220’s video capability matches up with the N95, N82 and other Nseries phone with its 30fps shooting speed at VGA (640×480) resolution. And the 6220’s TV-out capability is not common among Nokia N-Series models.
