I have only tried this with Olympus' Raw files (ORF).I know Olympus support claims it is IMPOSSIBLE to geotag ORF files. Never the less, it does the job. AND when you later convert the ORF file using Olympus' "OLYMPUS Master 2" it actually preserve the lon/lat info in the EXIF!
I am confident at will work with other RAW format like Sony, Sigma and Canikon. (if you want to test it please try on a set of copies, rather that the original files. Just in case that it corrupt the files)
Ok @trip can not geotag Camera RAW files (like ORF). Only Jpeg.
So here is what you do:
1: connect you i-gotU to the PC.
2: start @trip.
3: import your route.
4: export your route in GPX format.
***
From here the rest can be done on a vista X64bit!
***
5: start you GPicSync.
6: in the "pictures folder" find the folder containing you photos.
7: in the "GPS file" choose the saved GPX file.
8: in the options you can choose various settings I recommend checking "Interpolation"
9: in the UTC offset you can compensate for local time vs. GPS/GMT time
10: in the "Geocode picture only if time difference to nearest track point is below (seconds)=" write the GPS frequent times 3, (in case the logger skipped one or two logs) or whatever you want.
11: syncronise !
--Done--
My GpicSync settings:
Enjoy

Hi all.
I have the GT-120 and wanted to keep my photos in RAW format. But still be able to geotag them. So I have put together a little guide for you.

We are sorry. Due to the file size is too large and it will reduce the processing performance. We do not support to import RAW file. So @trip PC can not write the GPS information to the file type.
Most users in general would convert the photo to the JPG file type first. Then import form @trip PC and upload to the @trip website. It will improve the processing performance. And it will not occupy too much free space of Album. Thank you!

I know that you want to keep it relative simple, and respect that. It's also why I post this. Some want to keep their photos in RAW format, me included. We still want to geotag our RAW files. If you convert to JPEG you loose a lot of usefull information in the photo like exposure, whitebalance etc. True you free some Mbytes. But I think many serious photographers want ti stick with the RAW format if possible. Please don't see this as a negative comment. Instead see it as a solution for the semi pro market.

One option should you use Adobe Lightroom is Jeffrey Friedl's GPS Support Plugin. This works well for me for tagging RAW images. However Lightroom itself is not free and the plug-in is now 'Donationware'.

I use Geosetter to Geo-tag my RAW files. Also a free software and after you exported the GPX file to your computer Geosetter can synchronize your photos with the GPS information.

The other advantage of Geosetter, it knows what time zone you are in by your GPS position, there is no need to put in a UTC offset. It also has the ability to add in the Country, State, Location and sublocation for you.
I have a Pentax and my RAW files are DNG format. I don't often shoot in RAW, for me the extra processing effort is too much for the small gain in quality.
