Dear Customer,

Thank you for buying the Tachyon XC Micro or Micro HD. These Micro cameras are the latest of our video and still helmet cameras designed for

filming extreme action in extreme conditions. They are very rugged and very simple to use, while delivering 30FPS of quality video.

The Tachyon Micros are shockproof, waterproof, and foolproof. Take them anywhere on land, into the sea, and into the air and bring back your

stunts, adventures, and bloopers. A patented shock-proof battery system eliminates an all-too -common problem among other action cameras; the

loss of power and recorded files caused by the jarring loose of the batteries. This innovation ensures that videos taken in challenging and perhaps

impossible-to-repeat situations will not be lost.

And unlike other action cameras which need to rely on an external waterproof case, the Tachyon XC Micros are designed to be waterproof from

the start. Combined with the patented Dive Lock (see below), the Micros allow you to film to a depth of 100 feet (30 Meters).

The Tachyon Micro shoots video in superior quality standard ng modes: Superior-Quality Video and Time-Lapse Photography. It makes use of the

4GB - 64GB Micro Memory cards, for the longest recording times on the market.
