    Bulk Geotag Sony Alpha Photos — Free Online

    Sony mirrorless bodies (A7 IV, A7R V, A1, FX3) don't have built-in GPS. Bulk geotag your shoot in 60 seconds — sync via GPX from your phone or pick a single location for the whole session.

    Supports: JPEG, ARW (RAW), HEIF • Geotag JPEG/HEIF directly. For ARW RAW, geotag the JPEG sidecar or convert first.

    How to Bulk Geotag Sony Photos

    1. 1

      Import from your Sony body

      Use Imaging Edge, a card reader, or USB-C tethering to copy JPEG/HEIF files to your computer.

    2. 2

      Optional: export a GPX track

      If you used Sony's Imaging Edge Mobile or any GPS app on your phone during the shoot, export the GPX. Otherwise pick a single location.

    3. 3

      Drop into Geo-Tag-It Bulk mode

      Drag the folder, choose location source, and process.

    4. 4

      Download geotagged ZIP

      GPS is written into EXIF. Pixels untouched — zero quality loss for client deliverables.

    Why Sony Shooters Geotag in Post

    Native GPS is unreliable

    Sony bodies depend on phone-paired GPS logging that frequently disconnects, drains battery, or simply isn't enabled.

    Fix entire archives at once

    Bulk geotag retroactively — apply a single shoot location to a wedding, or sync a GPX to a travel set.

    Zero quality loss

    GPS is written into EXIF only. Image pixels are byte-for-byte untouched, so client deliverables stay pristine.

    Sony Bulk Geotagging FAQ

    Do Sony Alpha cameras have GPS?

    No native GPS in current Alpha bodies (A7 IV, A1, FX3). Sony relies on the Imaging Edge Mobile app to log location from your phone — but the link is fragile and many shooters geotag in post instead.

    Can I bulk geotag Sony ARW RAW files?

    Geo-Tag-It writes EXIF GPS into JPEG and HEIF directly. For ARW, the standard workflow is to geotag the in-camera JPEG sidecar, or convert ARW to DNG/JPEG first and then bulk geotag.

    How do I geotag a full wedding shoot from a Sony A7 IV?

    Export JPEGs from the card, drag the folder into Bulk mode, pick the venue location (or load a GPX of the day), process, and download. Hundreds of photos in under a minute.

    Is this better than Sony Imaging Edge for geotagging?

    For bulk batches, yes — Imaging Edge's phone-link logging is unreliable, while post-shoot bulk geotagging always works and lets you fix entire shoots after the fact.
