INTRODUCTION:

12X Zoom Digital Camera Binoculars combine an all-optical binocular system with a high definition digital video camera. The LCD display gives you quick control over various functions to help you capture the perfect photo or video. Use the 12X magnification, 32 mm aperature binocular system to get a closer look at the subject of your choice. Ideal for hunting, birdwatching, surveillance jobs, sporting events, outdoor adventures and more!

INCLUDED COMPONENTS:

Before using the device, check to make sure that all items listed below have been included with your device.

HOW TO USE:

EYE DISTANCE ADJUSTMENTHold the binoculars in a neutral, observational position and rotate the two lens cones (A) and (B) inward or outward until you see a single circle through the lenses. Make sure to adjust this every time you use the device.

FOCUSINGClose your right eye and observe with your left eye. Rotate the central focusing knob (A) until the image is clear. Next, close your left eye and observe with your right eye. Rotate the right adjustable eyepiece (B) until the image becomes clear. At this point the focal lengths on both sides have been adjusted, so you only need to rotate the central focusing knob to focus on targets.

USERS WITH GLASSESIf you wear glasses, simply fold down the rubber eye flaps (A) and (B), and move your eyes closer to the eyepieces in order to establish a proper field of view.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE:

  • To remove dust or fingerprints on the lenses, use a clean microfiber cloth
  • Only use liquid cleaning products recommended for prescription lenses
  • Do not attempt to clean the inside of the device
  • Keep your binoculars in a dry, ventilated place when not in use
  • Staring at the sun may cause damage to your eyes

BATTERY:

This item has a built-in rechargeable Lithium battery that automatically charges the camera every time you connect it to a computer via USB cable. When the battery is low, the LCD display shows “Battery Low” accompanied by a red indicator light. After recharging the battery, the indicator light will turn off.

INSTALLING MICRO-SD CARD:

The power must be OFF when installing the included Micro-SD card. Make sure the Micro-SD card (A) is inserted into the correct slot (B) with the printed side facing down and the gold contact pins facing in. Insert the card until you hear a click.

To remove the Micro-SD card you must turn the camera OFF. Once it is OFF, simply push the card inwards to disengage the locking mechanism (the card will pop out).

It is recommended that you use Class 4 or above SD cards with a minimum of 4GB storage. Low speed cards do not support 1080p recording, so this could result in lower quality video.

To safely use your Micro-SD card, do not remove it or turn off the power of your device when the card is being read. Always format a new card before using it.
