V) Mounting the Camera 
 

The camera can be mounted in a number of ways using the straps, mounts and velcro patch 
provided. Please follow the methods of mounting as suggested below: 

 

 

Fixing the camera onto the universal clip 

 

1.

 

Align the threaded side of the universal clip with the thread on the underside of 
the camera body. 

2.

 

Twist the screw thread in a clockwise direction. 

3.

 

As the universal clip tightens against the body of the camera, adjust the angle of 
the universal clip to provide the desired angle. 

4.

 

Tighten fully the screw on the universal clip. This should now fit firmly against the 
camera body. 

 

Mounting the camera using the headstrap 

 

1.

 

Attach the goggle mount to the elastic headstrap as shown in the illustration. 

2.

 

Adjust the diameter of the head strap by sliding the plastic buckles. 

3.

 

Slide the camera (with universal clip attached) into the goggle mount until the two 
arms on the clip, 'click' into place. 

 

Mounting the camera on a goggle strap 

 

1.

 

Attach the goggle strap to your goggles. 

2.

 

Slide the camera (with universal clip attached) into the goggle mount until the two 
arms on the clip 'click' into place. 

Mounting the camera on a helmet 

 

1.

 

Attach one side of the velcro strips to the underside of the helmet mount. 

2.

 

Position the helmet mount against your helmet and find the optimum mounting 
position on the helmet. 

3.

 

Ensure the surface where you wish to attach the helmet mount is clean, oil and 
dust free and dry. Attach the remaining velcro strips onto the helmet. 

4.

 

Push the helmet mount onto the helmet until the velcro is firmly attached. 

5.

 

Slide the camera (with universal clip attached) into the helmet mount until the two 
arms on the clip 'click' into place.

Mounting the camera on a vented cycle or kayak helmet 

 

1.

 

Position the helmet mount in the top or side of your helmet and find the optimum 
mounting position on the helmet. 

2.

 

Use the short strap to attach the helmet mount using the slits in the helmet mount 
to thread the strap through. It may be necessary, depending on the position, to 
use a section of the velcro strip to ensure the mount and strap firmly fit onto the 
helmet. 

3.

 

Slide the camera (with universal clip attached) into the helmet mount until the two 
arms on the clip 'click' into place. 

 

Mounting the camera on a handlebar 

 

1.

 

Unscrew the nut from the handlebar mount and remove the screw. 

2.

 

Fit the handlebar mount onto the handlebar, ensuring that the rubber pad is 
positioned around the handlebar, between the handlebar and mount. 

3.

 

Re-insert the screw and nut and tighten until the mount fits tightly onto the 
handlebar. 

4.

 

Slide the camera (with universal clip attached) into the handlebar mount until the 
two arms on the clip 'click' into place. 

 

Mounting the camera onto a tripod, camera- or suction mount 

 

1.

 

The camera has a standard tripod thread embedded into the camera body. This is 
the same thread into which the universal clip normally screws into. 

2.

 

Thread the camera onto a tripod, camera mount or suction mount (not included) 
or any other mount with a standard camera thread. 

 

Adjusting the angle of the camera 

 

1.

 

Unclip the camera with universal clip from the mount you are using by pressing 
the arms on the universal clip. 

2.

 

Untwist the universal clip by rotating the screw anti-clockwise. 

3.

 

When the universal clip is sufficiently far unscrewed, rotate the universal clip to the 
correct angle and tighten the screw again.
