I looked on the Luminous Landscape site; Michael prefers the G10 in a comparison to the P6000 by Nikon and a Panny camera...

"New GPS capability will automatically geo-tag your photos with the exact location of where you shot that picture. Upload pictures directly to my Picturetown, then conduct searches based on the location of where your pictures were taken. You can also view them all at once. A great way to have instant organization of your photos!"

Hope this helps Daryle.

Wow that's scary they can track you where ever you go but if you're camera gets stolen they can probably track the thief. Plus a third party gets to see and use all your copyrighted photos, I don't think so!

I've really been wanting that option on a compact... DSLR's have been doing it for years.
Maybe the G12,,, lol

Sort of. Have you seen the GISTEQ photo tracker?

Piet gave a very Germanic one word answer that happens to be totally wrong. While the G cameras do not have a built-in GPS chip, you can still geotag photos using a separate GPS tracker and coding software that associates time stamps in the EXIF data of your photos with time stamps on gathered GPS data. I use a G-Rays GPS tracker and HoudahGeo software for all my cameras and it works great.

Can the G series do it?

I don't believe any G-series has Canon supported GPS functionality: http://web.canon.jp/imaging/wft/wft-e2/index.html

There are roundabout ways of accomplishing this but no direct write option.
