I have created a new point layer and added points using a list of site names (parks, amenities, etc). My client now wants attribute fields which show the x, y coordinate values for each point. I can do this using the Field Calculator and populate new fields with values using the layer CRS which is MGA GDA94 Zone 55 (EPSG:28355). However the client wants the values in Long/Lat GDA 94 (EPSG:4283). Is there an expression I can use to do this within the Field Calculator dialogue? I would rather not have to make a copy of the layer with a new projection. I'm using version 2.8.1. Thank you.
