Assembling Your iPIX Camera Equipment

Step 3: Attach the Camera to the Rotator

1.Place the camera on the rotator.

2.Align the threaded mount on the bottom of the camera with the thumb screw on the rotator.

3.The camera body will sit differently on the rotator depending upon your camera model. The front of the camera lens should sit directly over the rotator’s center.

Thumb screw

The rotator cradles and supports the camera body. The camera should have very little movement once it is securely fastened to the rotator.

4.Gently turn the thumb screw on the rotator clockwise to secure the camera. Do not over tighten.

5.Turn the rotator until it clicks softly into place.

6.Rotate the camera clockwise by gripping the rotator base until it clicks into place.

To avoid image misalignment or camera/lens damage, rotate the camera clockwise using the rotator base only. Whenever you rotate the camera, make sure the rotator remains securely attached to the tripod.
