How to Remove the Sparkle Lens from Your GemSparkle

Quick Answer

Yes — you can remove the Sparkle Lens and use the 5x zoom lens on its own. Simply pop the lens assembly out from the back of the GemSparkle, then twist the Sparkle Lens free from the 5x zoom lens.

Before You Start

  • Make sure your GemSparkle is not connected to a power source.

  • Handle lenses with care to avoid scratching the optical surfaces.

Steps

  1. Turn the GemSparkle over so you can access the back of the device.

  2. Pop the lens assembly out from the back of the GemSparkle.

  3. Twist the Sparkle Lens to separate it from the 5x zoom lens.

  4. Set the Sparkle Lens aside in a safe, clean location.

  5. Reinsert the 5x zoom lens into the GemSparkle on its own.

Expected Result

The 5x zoom lens is seated in the GemSparkle and ready to use without the Sparkle Lens attached.

If This Does Not Work

  • If the lens assembly feels stuck, do not force it. Check that you are accessing the correct panel on the back of the device.

  • If the Sparkle Lens does not separate from the 5x zoom lens, ensure you are twisting in the correct direction and applying gentle, even pressure.

  • If the lenses appear damaged or the assembly is jammed, contact Picup Media support before attempting further removal.

Common Mistakes

  • Trying to remove the lens from the front of the device rather than the back.
