Congratulations on your purchase of the Bushnell ImageView binocular! The
Bushnell ImageView binocular takes the technology of digital photography
and combines it with a high-quality compact binocular. This allows you
to observe sporting events, wildlife, scenic vistas or anything you would
normally use a binocular for, and then save the image in a built-in attached
digital camera. You can then download these images to your computer and e-
mail them to your friends and family, print off the picture using the included
software or save them in a photo album for future use. Before using the
product, please read the instructions contained in this manual and take time
to familiarize yourself with the different parts and features of the product.

DoWnLoaDinG tHe pictures to your coMputer:
1. The camera will be recognized as a USB mass storage device (if it is set to "STO" and not "PCC"),
which means no special drivers are required for all operating systems later than Windows 98 (Me,
2000, XP.) Mac OS 9 and OSX are also compatible. If you have a PC running Windows 98,
you must install the driver found on the included CD-ROM BEFORE CONNECTING THE
CAMERA TO YOUR PC.
2. If you have a computer OS as listed above that is USB mass storage compliant, a new disc icon will
appear in Windows Explorer (under “My Computer”) as a new “Removable Disc” after plugging in
the USB cable from the Imageview. Mac users will see the new disc device appear on their desktop.
Clicking on the new disc icon will show the contents, a folder named “DCIM.” The image folder
inside this contains your photos, stored as JPEGs (.jpg file format). They may then be opened,
edited, renamed and saved using any photo or graphics software that accepts .jpg files. If you do not
have software that will open .jpg files, you should install MGI Photosuite (Windows only) from the
included CD-ROM. See “Software Installation” for instructions.
3. After you have copied or opened and saved the photo files to your computers hard drive, you
may disconnect the Imageview camera (NEVER disconnect the camera while files are still being
transferred to your computer.) Before disconnecting, you should “eject” or stop the removable disc
representing the camera to avoid an error message.

Soſtware Installation
If you are using Windows 98, you must install drivers before connecting the camera to your PC. Insert the CD-ROM
into your computer’s CD drive; it will auto-run and the install screen will be displayed. Select “Install Driver”, then
follow the directions. After installation, restart your computer. Windows 2000, ME, and XP do not require drivers,
as the camera uses the USB mass storage standard , allowing the photo files to be accessed as if they were stored on
an external hard drive. For any Windows OS, if you are not already using photo editing software you prefer, you may
install Roxio PhotoSuite® from the CD-ROM. Be sure to read the “Release Notes” completely, noting any tips or
potential issues relevant to your PC configuration and OS.
WarninG: Make sure you download any picture from your camera before you remove the
batteries from the camera.
Transferring e Photos & Videos to Your PC - Step by Step
1. Be sure the driver has been installed first if you are on Windows 98/98SE.
2. Connect the supplied cable to the ImageView’s USB port, then directly to a main USB port on your computer-do
not use front panel/keyboard USB ports or unpowered “hubs”.

3. e LCD display will indicate “STO”, and the ImageView will be recognized as a standard “USB
Mass Storage” device. is means that the camera files can be easily viewed, edited, or copied to your
hard drive, just as if they were stored on an external hard drive or a CD-ROM.
4. (is step is not required with Windows XP, simply use the options in the pop-up window to view, copy
or edit your photos). Open My Computer or Windows Explorer. e camera will be seen as a new
“Removable Disk” with an unused drive letter assigned to it. Double click this new “Disk” icon, open
the “DCIM” folder inside, then the folder(s) inside that (“100MEDIA” ,etc). Your photos/videos are
the files inside-they have the prefix “IMG__” followed by a number, same as seen earlier on the camera’s
display when you review photos. Single clicking any file should show a small preview image.
5. Click “Edit>Select All” (or click on one photo, contol+click to select multiple photos), then
“Edit>Copy to Folder” (in Windows menus). Select an existing folder on your hard drive, such as “My
Pictures”, or create a new folder (“Hawaii Vacation”, etc), then click “OK” to transfer copies of the
photo files you want.
6. After the photos are transferred to your hard drive, you can disconnect the camera. Windows 2000
may produce a screen warning that you have disconnected a USB device without stopping or ejecting
the “disk” first (your photo files will not be harmed). If so, check the box that adds an icon to your
system tray or taskbar. en next time you finish transferring photos, you can click that icon first, and
“Stop the USB Mass Storage Device” before disconnecting the camera. (On Mac computers, you should
“eject” the “disk” that appeared on your desktop when the camera was connected.)

Transferring e Photos & Videos to Your PC continued
7. You’re now ready to open the photo files in any photo editing software. Just use File>Open and go to the folder
where you stored the photos earlier. If you are using PhotoSuite, select File>Open Photo, then use the “Look in”
pull down menu at the top of the Open window, select “My Computer”, select your hard drive, and double click
any photo in the folder where you copied the files from the camera. It is also possible to open and work with your
photos directly from the ImageView while it is still connected.To do this with PhotoSuite, first follow steps 1-3,
then open PhotoSuite, select File>Open Photo and use the “Look in” menu to select My Computer, then select
the “Removable Disk”, and open the folders inside until you get to the JPEG photo files. If you choose to work
this way, from a connected camera, be sure that you save the photo (when you are done editing) to your hard drive,
and not the camera’s memory or card. To do this in PhotoSuite, after clicking “Done”, answer “Save Changes?”
with “Yes”, but then answer “Replace Existing File”? with “No” and use the “Save As” dialog box to save the edited
photo in a folder on your hard drive (“Save In>Local Disk”), not the “Removable Disk” (camera).
8. If you are new to photo editing on a computer, consult your software’s Help menu (PhotoSuite has extensive
built-in Help) for tips on using its features. Along with adjusting the brightness, contrast, sharpness and color
of your photos, you can resize the photo to fit the paper if you are printing, or save a smaller, low or medium
resolution version for email or inserting into documents. When you are ready to save your edited file, you may
want to use “Save As” and give it a more descriptive name than “IMG___”. Doing this also preserves the original
file as a backup to reopen and re-edit later. Make sure you have successfully transferred all the photos you wanted
to save before using “Delete All” on your camera to make room for new images.

BinocuLar instructions
Your Bushnell binocular is a precision instrument designed to provide many years of pleasurable
viewing. This portion of the booklet will help you achieve optimum performance by explaining how
you can adjust the binocular to your eyes, and how to care for this instrument. Read the instructions
carefully before using your binocular.
eye aDJustMents (Figure 1)
Fig. 1
How to Adjust For Distance Between Your Eyes
The distance between the eyes, called “interpupillary distance,” varies from
person to person. To achieve perfect alignment of lens to eye, follow these
simple steps.
interpupiLLary Distance
1. Hold your binocular in the normal viewing position.
2. Grasp each barrel firmly. Move the barrels closer together or further apart
until you see a single circular field. Always re-set your binocular to this position before using.
How to Adjust For Individual Eye Strength
As individual eyesight varies from one person to another, most Bushnell binoculars have a diopter setting
feature which allows you to fine-tune the binocular to your vision. Follow the focusing instructions below
for your type of binocular.

FocusinG
1. Adjust interpupillary distance. (Figure 1)
2. Set the “diopter setting” (Figure 2) to zero and view a distant object.
3. Keep both eyes open at all times.
Fig. 2
4. Using a lens cover or your hand, cover the objective (front) lens of the
same side of the binocular that has the “diopter setting.” This is usually
the right side. (The left side on zoom models.)
Diopter setting
5. Using the center focus wheel, focus on a distant object with fine detail
(e.g., brick wall, tree branches, etc.) until it appears as sharp as possible.
6. Uncover the objective lens on the diopter side, cover the other objective lens, then view the same object.
7. Using the “diopter setting” adjustment ring, focus the same object being viewed. Caution should
be used as over turning or forcing the diopter eyepiece can cause damage or cause the eyepiece to
break away from the chassis.
8. Your binocular should be adjusted for your eyes. Focus at any far or near distances can now be
attained simply by turning the center focus wheel. Make a note of the diopter setting for your eyes
for future reference.
eyecups (Figure 3)
Your Bushnell binocular is fitted with rubber roll-down eyecups designed for

your comfort and to exclude extraneous light. If you wear sun/eyeglasses, roll
down the eyecups. This will bring your eyes closer to the binocular lens thus
providing improved field of view.

instructions For care oF BinocuLars
Your Bushnell binocular will provide years of trouble-free service if it receives the normal care you
would give any fine optical instrument. The Imageview is not waterproof, and should not be exposed
to excessive moisture.
1. If your binocular has roll-down, flexible eyecups, store it with the eyecups up. This avoids excessive
stress and wear on the eyecups in the down position.
2. Avoid banging and dropping.
3. Store in a cool, dry place.
4. CAUTION: Looking directly at the sun with your binocular may be very harmful to your eyes.
5. Never expose your ImageView binocular to any type of excessive of liquid or fluid, as the binocular
is not water/fogproof.
6. Take the batteries out of your ImageView if you are not going to use for a long period of time. (Make
sure you download any pictures from your camera before you remove the batteries out of the camera.)
cLeaninG
1. Blow away any dust or debris on the lens (or use a soft lens brush.)
2. To remove dirt or finger prints, clean with a soft cotton cloth rubbing in a circular motion. Use of
a coarse cloth or unnecessary rubbing may scratch the lens surface and eventually cause permanent
damage. A “microfiber” cleaning cloth (available at most photo dealers) is ideal for the routine
cleaning of your optics.
3. For a more thorough cleaning, photographic lens tissue and photographic-type lens cleaning fluid
or isopropyl alcohol may be used. Always apply the fluid to the cleaning cloth – never directly on
the lens.
