DV Camera Configuration
WARNING
: Use only video heads and tripods with enough load capacity to support the total weight of
the camera/teleprompter system (camera, camera accessories, teleprompter mount, counter balance
weight, riser, batteries, etc.). Use of under rated tripod and video head support may result in collapse
and sever damage to equipment.
Step 1
Attach the GlidePlate to the tripod
Option 1)
If the tripod has a wedge plate remove it from the
tripod. Position the wedge plate over the
threaded holes on the bottom* of the GlidePlate.
Using the screws provided with the wedge plate
and a flat head screwdriver attach the wedge
plate to the GlidePlate.
Secure the configured GlidePlate to the tripod
and LOCK the video head.
Option 2)
If the tripod has just an attachment screw position
the appropriate threaded hole in the bottom* of
the GlidePlate over the attachment screw and
secure.
*bottom = side with the
beveled slot

Step 2
Attach the Camera Riser
Position the
2” riser over the threaded holes in the
top of the GlidePlate. Secure the riser in place
with two washers and bolts.
Hint: Don’t tighten all the way to allow for easy
adjustment.
