Lens
The swivel lens mechanism lets you easily aim at the angle
you want, without changing the position of the camera body.
Changing the Lens Angle
• Whenever you swivel the lens so it is pointing in the direc-
tion of the back of the camera, the image on the monitor
screen is automatically adjusted so it shows a mirror image
of what it picked up by the lens. This makes self-portrait
images appear with the correct orientation when viewed on
a display.

IMPORTANT!
• Do not use undue force when rotating the lens mecha-
nism and never try to force it past the point where rota-
tion stops naturally. Rough handling can cause the
lens mechanism to break and other damage to the
camera.
• The proper orientation of the lens when you store the
camera in its case depends on your camera model.
* QV-2400UX: Lens should be pointed forward.
* QV-2900UX: Lens should be pointed up.
• Never set the camera down while the lens is pointed
downwards. Doing so can cause bending or other
damage to the area around the lens.
• Always leave the lens cap on the lens except when
you are actually recording images.
