Showing Exif GPS data with/without -a option

[BogdanH]

Hi Phil,

I would expect both commands below would give the same output, but:
exiftool -s -GPS:All photo.jpg -only GPSxxxRef tags shown (no tags which hold coordinates)
and
exiftool -s -a -GPS:All photo.jpg -complete GPS content shown (as expected).

Can you explain, please?

Hi Bogdan,

You're going to slap your head when I remind you about FAQ number 3.

Hi Phil,

Now it's time for me to apologize. I mean... am I becoming senile or what? How embarrassing.

  Makes me happy to know that I'm not the only one that does things like this.
