Tripod Adapter Plate
To mount the camera on a tripod, the tripod plate (LDK 5031/
00 is delivered as standard) must first be attached to the
tripod.
Follow the tripod manufacturer’s instructions to mount the
wedge plate supplied with the tripod and the tripod adapter
plate firmly onto the tripod.
To attach the camera to the tripod adapter plate proceed as
follows:
a. Slide the camera horizontally along the tripod adapter
plate from back to front ensuring that the front of the
camera engages the V-slot (1) at the front of the tripod
adapter plate, and that the slot on the bottom of the
camera engages the stud (2) at the rear of the tripod
adapter plate.
b. Firmly push the camera forward until it clicks into place.
CAUTION
Failure to attach the camera to the tripod adapter
plate in the correct manner could result in an
unsecured camera. Ensure that the rear stud (2) is
engaged and that the camera clicks into place.
To remove the camera from the tripod proceed as follows:
a
Press the red locking lever (3) against release handle (4)
on the tripod adapter plate and hold.
b. Ensure that you have a firm hold of the camera.
c. Pull the release handle (4) forward.
d. Move the camera backwards and up. The camera is now
free from the tripod adapter plate.
When the camera is mounted on the tripod tighten this locking
lever (5) to ensure that the stud (2) at the rear of the plate is
locked firmly in place.
When removing the camera first open the locking lever (5) to
free the rear stud (2).
