2.3 Mounting the Camera
The Observer can sit on a flat surface, such a shelf or bookcase, be mounted to a wall using the included
bracket, or mounted atop a tripod stand using the standard tripod mount located on the underside of the base.
When using the camera free standing, be sure to secure the cables. Failing to secure the cables could cause
the camera to be pulled off the mounting surface resulting in damage to the camera.
Wall Mounting

walls. The camera support platform can be tilted up or down to help point the camera toward your area of

CAUTION: Don’t mount the camera with the lens facing into direct sunlight. Prolonged
exposure to direct sunlight will damage the sensor.
