Using the Tripod Mount
Attach a tripod to the tripod
mount of the lens and not to
that of the digital camera.
If the lens or digital camera
prevents the tripod from being
attached, attach the supplied external tripod mount to the
lens.
• When a battery grip (DMW-BGGH3) is in use, for example,
it will come in contact with the head of your tripod,
preventing the tripod from being attached. In this case,
attach the supplied external tripod mount to the lens.
• An interface unit (DMW-YAGH/AG-YAGH) will also
prevent a tripod from being attached even if you use the
external tripod mount. In this case, attach your tripod to
the appropriate tripod hole on the interface unit.

Attaching the external tripod mount (supplied)
1
Insert the external tripod mount attachment
screw (
1
) into the tripod mount of the lens.
2
Rotate the external tripod mount attachment
screw in the direction of the arrows to fasten it
firmly.
• Check that the external tripod mount attachment screw is
not loose before use.
∫
Changing the vertical/horizontal orientation
You can loosen the orientation locking knob (
1
) to rotate
the lens together with the digital camera (
2
).
This way, you can quickly switch between the vertical and
horizontal orientation while the tripod is in use.
• After changing the orientation, tighten the orientation
locking knob firmly and check that it is not loose.
