GPS for Nikon D90/D5000

You asked – we listened :) Here comes the Promote GPS-90 for D90 and D5000 cameras:

Overall the unit works the same way as the original Promote GPS.  What’s especially cool about D90 version though is that it features the right-angle GPS connector plug. It doesn’t stick as far out of your camera side as Nikon GP-1’s cord, and is a much better fit for placing the camera into your bag without detaching the GPS cord. Someone pointed this problem out on DPReview when GP-1 was about to be released – hey, thanks for the tip! :)

    Just bought the Promote GPS-90.
    Does it have the ability to hold a position as described for Promote GPS-N-1?

    Thanks!
    Joao

    Hello Joao,

    GPS-N-1 and GPS-N-90 don’t hold the position if the satellite reception is lost. However, it’s been reported that both of these have better sensitivity and signal retention than competing units.
