Getting Started
Wearing the V300 Camera
The V300 Camera uses magnets to secure the mounts to your clothing.
Warning! Do not wear the Magnetic Chest Mount (Universal Chest Mount) near
sensitive medical equipment or implants such as pacemakers or other magnetically
programmable medical devices.
Wear the V300 on your clothing and vest where it is most comfortable, convenient, and secure. Ensure
that the lens is not obstructed and that it is aimed at the horizon (page 22).
Center chest mount
The mount is made to fit ideally over the buttons or zipper in the center of your chest. You can also wear
it over your pocket or on the protective vest or jacket.
The magnets are strong with 65 pounds of pressure when snapped together.
To use the chest mount:
1. Separate the under-shirt bracket (2) from the over-shirt bracket (1):
a. Hold the under-shirt bracket in one hand with the thumb on top and the
two middle fingers on the bottom.
b. Raise the levers (3) on both sides.
c. While holding the levers (3) up, pull the brackets (1, 2) apart.
2. Match the anchor tabs (3) and camera slots (5) on the over-shirt bracket
with the back of the camera—keeping the magnets apart. You can attach
the V300 Camera before or after the mount is in place.
3. Place the under-shirt bracket (2) under your shirt where you want to wear
your camera.
4. Line up the anchor slots (3) and place the over-shirt (1) against the under-
shirt bracket (2), with your shirt between them. (These will snap together
forcefully.)
The magnets on both brackets line up automatically, securing the mount to your shirt.
