Greetings --
With some struggles, I have managed to get GPS working on my 5D4 ... But ... not invariably. My usual workflow is to shoot, then transfer GPS logger to my card (usually SD, in #2 slot) and load onto my computer. I open in Photo Mechanic, do my rapid cull, and then import to LR where I do my fine edit. The issue is this: some of my raw files (I check EXIF) have the GPS coordinates perfectly, and some don't.
The only possible explanation I can make of it is that IF I have turned the camera off, then on later, that it takes the camera's GPS a while to learn where it is. If I shoot a bunch in a single spot, all the GPS data work.
Could this be a function of turning the camera off and then on again? I have the GPS set on 1 minute refresh, though easily cold incrase it (I have lots of batteries.)
Thanks for your advice.
