Looking at or near the Sun will cause instant and irreversible damage to your eye. Eye damage is often painless, so there is no warning to the observer that damage has occurred until it is too late. Do not point the binocular at or near the Sun. Children should always have adult supervision while observing. Page 3 I. Introduction Meade CaptureView is an 8 x 42mm full-featured binocular integrated with a digital camera that requires no film to take pictures or movies. For best results, please follow these operating instructions to capture and download pictures. • Fully functional binoculars. • Take pictures and movies, and view them on your PC. • Transfer pictures and movies to your PC for easy printing, editing, enhancing, and manipulating. • E-mail pictures to your friends and family. • You can view pictures and movies you just took on the LCD panel. Also the LCD panel indicates status for ease in selecting and performing desired operations. Page 4 II. How to Use Your Binocular To enhance your viewing enjoyment, please take a moment to familiarize yourself with your new binocular: Adjustment of Eye Relief for Eyeglass Wearers For best results when viewing an object while wearing eyeglasses, fold down the rubber eyecups and place them against your glasses. Adjusting the Eyepieces The distance between your eyes is usually different than the distance between another person’s eyes. This distance is known as the interpupillary distance, or IPD. Adjustment to your IPD is important to the proper use of you CaptureView: 1.Hold CaptureView up to your face in the normal viewing position, using both hands to hold each barrel firmly. 2.Pull the barrels apart or push the barrels together until you see a single circular field with both of your eyes. Focusing the Binocular 1.Set the Diopter Scale on underside of CaptureView (1, Fig. 1) at its center point between + and -. 2.Choose an object that is at least 16 feet (4.9m.) away. 3.Looking with just your left eye, rotate the Center Focus Knob (14, Fig. 1) until the object you are viewing is in best focus. 4.Looking with just your right eye, rotate the Diopter Scale (1, Fig. 1) until the object you are viewing is in best focus. 5.Now, looking with both eyes, both far and near objects can easily be brought into focus with a turn of the Center Focus Knob. Page 5 III. How To Use Your Camera CaptureView performs best under good lighting conditions. It takes some practice to get used to high-magnification photography. Take some time to practice capturing still pictures and movies. Depending on the available light and your distance from the object, captured images may not appear as bright or as centered as when viewed through the binoculars. Note also that CaptureView has a fixed focus (you cannot focus manually) and takes focused pictures even if the image in the binoculars is out-of-focus. Inserting Batteries 1.Lift the battery compartment lid (13, Fig. 2) by squeezing the outer edges and then pulling forward. 2.Insert 2 AA 1.5v (user-supplied) batteries into the compartment, noting the correct polarity as illustrated inside the compartment. Power Saving Features If you do not press any of the buttons, the camera will automatically shut off after 2 minutes to save energy. You can also turn off the LCD manually to further save battery power. While in Preview mode only (this feature does not operate in Menu mode), hold down the Left and Right buttons at the same time. The LCD screen will turn off. However, you will be able to continue taking pictures or movies using the Shutter button. Press both buttons at the same time again to turn the LCD screen back on again.
