Welcome
Thank you for your purchase of the Polaroid DSLR Wireless Viewfinder System. With it, you'll
be able to see what the camera sees and control its shutter at distances up to 300 feet away.
In addition, you'll be able to control up to four cameras at a time and for some models, you'll
be able to take command of the video recording feature.
With the portable viewing screen, you'll be able to see what's displayed on your camera's
external viewing screen. If your camera has only an eye-level viewfinder, don't worry, the
Polaroid transmitter has a built-in camera which will still let you see your subject.

View Mode
1 "Mini" mode relies on the transmitter's internal camera for live-view. It provides a 35mm angle
of view. The image shown on the receiver's LCD is only what the internal camera captures, not
your DSLR. However, if your camera lens is set to 35MM, it should be roughly equivalent to the
image shown on the screen.
