A tripod or monopod attaches to the tripod
mount on the lens.
Switching the Orientation of the Image

tripod mount you can rotate the camera and the

The mount clicks at 4 positions, every 90°.

This lens is fitted with a security slot to prevent
theft.
The security slot is located under the cover
for the orientation locking knob. Attach a
commercially-available wire-type security lock
