User`s guide
Camera
Steel casing except at front end, which is beige plastic. Weighs
about 10.5oz/297.7g with the cord. Length is 9.9in/25.1cm.
Diameter is 0.9in/2.2cm where you hold it, 0.7in/1.7cm at the
front end. Focal length is adjusted by the position of the lens
chamber, which is the constricted area near the front end. By
pulling the lens chamber out as far as it will go, you will be in the
close-up setting. You will see a red reference line near the base of
the lens chamber. The middle position, where the red reference
line is barely visible, gives you the two surfaces position. By push-
ing the lens chamber into the camera’s back end as far as it will go,
you will get to the full smile/full face position. When taking smile
images, a sheath is not recommended.While these adjustments are
not difficult, you probably will not be changing the settings dur-
ing an exam.
There is also a small image capture plastic button on the top of
the camera, where you have access to it regardless of whether you
are right-handed or left-handed. This button is easy to activate
and doesn’t cause distortions in your image. You depress the but-
ton to capture and hold the button down to save. To recapture the
image, press the button once more to erase and to go live again.
Utilizes a SuperHAD 1/4” Sony high resolution CCD with
auto white balance and continuous variable speed shutter. Has a
105˚ field of view with 50x macro lens.
Camera Cord

the backpack by beige cartridge module.

6.0in/15.2cm in height, 2.0in/5.1cm in thickness. It is designed

adapter for a CRT. To remove the camera from the backpack is a
matter of just sliding it out. There is no switch for turning off the
