Try searching with Google - most manuals are available from various sites, although you may be required to pay a small fee.

I don't see the manual online. There is a corporate address in Miami. KONUS USA CORPORATION 7275 NW 87th Ave. MIAMI FL 33178 tel. +1 305 5925500 fax +1 305 5926255 I gather their warranty consists of replacement rather than repair. These are sophisticated devices yet one business link indicates that at most there are 5 employees at the corporation. If that is so, I am not expecting you to get a lot of feedback from them. I ran across an advertisement detailing some of the specifications. It seems it came with a CD and cabling which enables it to download pictures to a computer. The software included referred to systems from XP to 2000 and that of course dates these to something prior to Windows 7's advent. As the settings for adjusting its digital camera components are highly likely something only a camera specialist would understand, I expect you almost need a cheat sheet to walk you through its use. A photography forum might have a hobbyist familiar with these but I find no information generally available on the web. I am listing the ad which includes some technical details (but no how to). And listing instructions for another binocular digital camera on the off chance that it shares at least some common procedures and guidance. It is a long shot but it is all I can think of to supply. That said, OpticsPlanet is an official dealer of Konus products and seems to have a chat and how to menu to its site. https://www.opticsplanet.com/konus-binoculars.html http://cdn2.bhphotovideo.com/lit_files/90269.pdf Konus 2048 DigiCamBinoculars 8x22 Binocular with Digital Camera 8x...
