Nikon P61o Is Lost In Space

My Nikon Coolpix P610 will not record location data. It is correctly set (and reset) for location tracking but the icon for a GPS location stays red all the time. It was working fine until a few days ago. Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

If your Nikon Coolpix P610 is not recording location data, even though location tracking is correctly set, there may be several reasons why this is happening. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can take:
  1. Check GPS signal strength: Ensure that the camera is in a location with a clear view of the sky and GPS signal strength is good. If the GPS signal is weak or obstructed, the camera may not be able to record location data.
  2. Ensure GPS is enabled: Check that the GPS function is enabled in the camera settings. To do this, go to the setup menu, then select "GPS" and make sure that "Record Location Data" is turned on.
  3. Reset the camera: Try resetting the camera to its default settings by going to the setup menu and selecting "Reset All". This may help resolve any software issues that are preventing the camera from recording location data.
  4. Check the battery level: If the battery is low, the camera may not be able to record location data. Make sure the battery is fully charged or replace it with a fully charged battery.
  5. Check firmware version: Make sure that your camera firmware is up to date. You can check for firmware updates on the Nikon website and update your camera if necessary.

If none of these steps resolve the issue, it's best to contact Nikon customer support or take the camera to an authorized service center for further assistance.
