Stan - Downloader Pro by Breeze Systems will integrate the GPS track log information to your EXIF data as it downloads the images. All you need to do is download the track log from your GPS and tell Downloader Pro where to find it. The key to accuracy, of course, is to be sure the camera clock matches the GPS clock. Although the Sony GPS is shown on the Downloader web page, most any GPS will generate a track log that is compatible. See this page for a little more information...
