PREPARING THE CAMERA
There is nothing to change on your Nikon D7100 for the use with SUBAL ND7100.
Knowledge and familiarization with the functions of your camera is essential to avoid mistakes when
installing and using the camera. We recommend you study your camera manual thoroughly before
installing the camera.
Attach the camera support saddle to the camera base with the locking lever pointing to the camera
backside. Tighten the camera screw by using a coin or a screw driver without excessive force.
IMPORTANT!
REMOVE THE PLASTIC PROTECTOR OF THE CAMERA’s MONITOR!
Please remove also the eyecup from the camera !
PREPARING THE LENS
To change the focal length on zoom lenses, or for manual focusing with fixed focal length lenses,
special lens gears are required which need to be fitted to the lens barrels.
Mounting the gear rings
Zooming gear ring
Depending on the type of the lens, the zooming gear ring is fitted onto the lens either from the front or
from the rear.
Set the zooming barrel of the lens to the mid point of the zoom range. After noting where the zoom
drive gear of the housing is located, position the zooming gear ring on the lens in such a way that
when the lens is mounted on the camera the centre of the toothed section of the zoom gear aligns
with the zoom drive gear in the housing. Check that the gears can mesh over the full zoom range of
the lens. A final check should be made after the camera is inserted into the housing.
If the zooming gear ring provides marking dots fit the zooming gear ring on the lens in such a way that
the markings correspond with the range of the zoom scale.
Tighten the Nylon screws (if provided) to fit the zooming gear firmly but take care that the free-moving
of the zooming ring of the lens is maintained.
Focus gear rings
The different construction of lenses requires different mounting systems of focus gear rings. Therefore
installation procedures vary. Please follow the mounting instructions enclosed with the focus gear
ring.
