MOUNTING TO THE L-BRACKET OR H-FRAME
There are several ways to mount your camera to the CineShooter Pan & Tilt Head. We suggest
first removing the L-Bracket or H-Frame and mounting your camera to the bracket first before
installing onto the head.
We also recommend powering your CineShooter Head before mounting your camera and
L-Bracket or H-Frame into the Arca-Swiss receiver plate(s) built into the CineShooter. This will
provide a level of resistance to the motors as you mount your camera to avoid any difficulties
such as camera “crashing” on the tilt axis if the camera payload is too high or unbalanced.
For standard operation, you may:
• Mount directly to the horizontal slide slot available
on both the standard L-Bracket bracket or H-Frame
supplied in the Heavy Duty Mounting Module using
the supplied ¼”-20 or 3/8”-16 camera screws.
• Mount a Kessler Kwik Release Receiver to the two
centered-on-nodal tapped holes
• Mount a third-party quick release system using any of
the available 3/8”-16 or ¼”-20 holes or slots located
on the L-Bracket or H-Frame.
• Remove the provided L-Bracket or H-Frame and
mount any third-party Arca-based L-Bracket such as
L-Brackets offered
by 3 Legged Thing, Really Right
Stuff, or Kirk.
