This tool lets me upload the track information from my GPS and then will directly geotag the photos. It also allow editing of the entire EXIF including fields I had previously never seen. It will work with RAW and convert to JPEG or TIFF along with a host of other features. I think it is really worth having a look at Now I understand that you are using a Mac so this does not apply to you but Microsoft have a tool that is free from their website called Microsoft Pro Photo Tools, This link for it is http://www.microsoft.com/prophoto/default.aspx .

I just throw that track log and the photos into GPSphotolinker and the rest is magic. I much prefer this solution to a dedicated logger for two reasons. 1) many don't support RAW images (GPSphotolinker does), but mostly because 2) the high sensitivity of the Garmin HCx means that I get a GPS signal in a lot of situations where most GPS devices fail to do so. My old Garmin eTrex Vista was terrible at getting a signal. I would have to have it on top of a backpack and always exposed. With the HCx I can gave it buried in my pack and it still gets a great signal, even indoors! It turns out that my Garmin HCx does save the track logs wonderfully on the MicroSD card.

There is a better solution ! I tried Geosetter 3.0.14 (http://www.geosetter.de/en/). It is far better respect other like GpicSync. Its GUI interface is well done and has a lot of features. Simply to use, almost nothing to do to configurate it. In a snap all the photo are geotagged using the data from logger unit. In a word: wonderful freeware ! Ciao Danilo - Italy GpicSync ?

If I need to geotag photos on my computer, I use the GPX export functionality of GeoLogTag.
