Mounting & Aiming Your Camera - Reconyx RapidFire Instruction Manual

Mounting & Aiming Your Camera
Your RECONYX RapidFire camera can be mounted to a RECONYX
TM
VersaMount™ (see www.reconyx.com for more information) or a camera
tripod by utilizing the threaded insert on the back of the camera housing.
It may also be mounted to a tree by using the included adjustable bungee
cord (shown below). It is highly recommended that you use a theft
deterrent device such as a cable and lock to help secure your camera
against possible theft when it is in the field. Theft deterrent cables and locks
are available from RECONYX (see www.reconyx.com to order).
Mounting Camera with Adjustable Bungee Cord (included)
TIP: For general surveillance we recommend that you mount your camera
about chest height. This is optimal for detecting people within the field of
view of the camera as well as for accessing the camera's card, batteries,
and controls. If you are concerned about someone seeing the camera
during daylight hours, you can mount the camera a bit higher and angle it
down a little more. Most people do not often look up and therefore are less
likely to notice the camera if it is mounted a few feet higher.
