MOUNTING AND POSITIONING

THE NatureView CAM

Mounting

After you’ve set up the camera’s parameters to your personal preferences

at home or in your truck, you’re ready to take it outside and slide the power

switch to “ON”. When setting up the NatureView Cam for scouting wildlife

or other outdoor applications, you must be sure to mount it in place correctly

and securely. We recommend mounting the NatureView Cam on a sturdy

tree with a diameter of about 6 in. (15cm). To get the optimal picture quality,

the tree should be about 16-17 ft. (5 meters) away from the place to be

monitored, with the camera placed at a height of 5-6.5 ft. (1.5~2 m). Also,

keep in mind that you will get the best results at night when the subject is

within the ideal ﬂash range, no farther than 60’ (19m) and no closer than 10’

(3m) from the camera.

To capture close-up images at much shorter ranges, one of the included

close-up lenses may be attached to the primary lens (see below). To avoid

the potential for moisture condensation inside the primary lens, drop one of

the provided "O-ring" rubber seals inside the lens shade before installing

the close-up lens. Then screw the close-up lens in place over the primary

lens (only one at a time may be installed). The close-up lenses change the

minimum focus distance to either 460mm (18") or 250mm (9.8").
