Camera positions
The MultiView HD automatically returns to its original settings when the
camera is switched from close-up to distance viewing and vice-versa. For
example, when the camera is tilted quickly from the whiteboard you are

magnification settings will automatically be applied. Three setting options
can be stored: close-up viewing, self-viewing and distance viewing.
