Before you begin changing the lenses, we recommend hooking your cam to a television or
recording device to check the focus. Please refer to the How To: Connect Cam to Television on
page 14 of this manual for proper hookup instructions.
Removal:
1. Remove the lens cover by twisting it
counterclockwise (A).
2. On the threaded section of the main body of the cam,
there are two sets of screw holes. DO NOT completely
remove the set screws – as they are very small and
easily misplaced. With the Allen wrench from the Tool
Kit, turn the set screws counterclockwise to loosen (B).
3. Remove the lens and tension device, if applicable) by
turning it counterclockwise (C).
Replacement*:
4. Choose the lens that fits your Field of View
requirements (see Lenses on page 9). Insert the new lens
and tension device into the main body and turn
clockwise (D). Be careful to avoid cross threading.
5. Find a point of reference that is the approximate
distance that you will be recording. Refer to your
television or recording device display to focus the new
lens. Turn the lens either clockwise or counterclockwise
to ensure that the image is focused clearly.
6. With the Allen wrench from the Tool Kit, turn the set
screws clockwise to tighten (F).
7. Return the lens cover to the main body by turning
clockwise (E).

Special Notice: Using the Wide Angle Lens
Because the 2.5mm: 92.5° (wide angle) lens is
slightly larger than our other lenses, an additional lens
cover was developed to ensure optimal performance.
The new Wide Angle Lens Cover accomodates the
longer lens to eliminate the shadowing on the corners
of your footage. Please use the Wide Angle Lens
Cover whenever using the Wide Angle Lens.
Please Note:
The Wide Angle Lens Cover is not compatible with the neutral density filters. If you wish to
use the filters with the Wide Angle Lens you will have to use the original lens cover.
Tightening the regular lens cover while using the Wide Angle Lens may cause the glass to
break. Also, shadowing may occur on the corners of your footage. Viosport / Viotac will not
be responsible for any damage incurred if customers choose to use this method for using the
Wide Angle Lens.
