It looks like geotagging is possible via their mobile app and a bluetooth connection: https://support.usa.canon.com/kb/index?page=content&id=ART182896
A decent GPS chip is so relatively inexpensive, it’s shocking that’s not just built-in!
The problem is mostly battery drain, I'd guess.
Not really. As this application calls for just a receiver it would be relatively low power plus it would only need to update its position when it is on or when a photo is taken.
GPSrs generally takes several readings over a period of time to get an accurate fix. Photographers like to not to have to wait for a minute or so before the shutter fires, so it would need to be running all the time.
For anyone scratching their heads (my D5300 had a built in GPS!) - most current cameras rely on a companion phone app for GPS coordinates. Some do this better than others. Here's my experience, based on my understanding of how each system works.
