I’ve been searching for the perfect GPS for landscape photographers. I could use it for geo-tagging, sure enough and that may be a good side benefit. But what i really wanted was a GPS that would tell me two things – what time the sun was coming up and, here’s the kicker, where.
A lot of GPS’s boast that they have the sun and moon tables that provide sunrise and sunset, moonrise and moonset (is that a word?) times. And if you think about it, with a device that knows your location on the face of Mother Earth and it knows the date, it should be no big deal to determine when the sun rises and sets and the same goes for the moon. And like I said, a lot of GPS’s do just that. What they don’t do is tell you where which shouldn’t be any more difficult than telling you when.
