To mount the camera on a tripod, the tripod plate (LDK 530/00 is delivered as standard) must first be attached to the tripod.

Follow the tripod manufacturer’s instructions to mount the wedge plate supplied with the tripod and the tripod adapter plate firmly onto the tripod.

To attach the camera to the tripod adapter plate proceed as follows:

a. Slide the camera horizontally along the tripod adapter plate from back to front ensuring that the front of the camera engages the V-slot (1) at the front of the tripod adapter plate, and that the slot on the bottom of the camera engages the stud (2) at the rear of the tripod adapter plate.

b.Firmly push the camera forward until it clicks into place.

CAUTION

Failure to attach the camera to the tripod adapter plate in the correct manner could result in an unsecured camera. Ensure that the rear stud (2) is engaged and that the camera clicks into place.

To remove the camera from the tripod proceed as follows:

a Press the red locking lever (3) against release handle (4) on the tripod adapter plate and hold.

b.Ensure that you have a firm hold of the camera.

c.Pull the release handle (4) forward.

d.Move the camera backwards and up. The camera is now free from the tripod adapter plate.

When a 5-inch viewfinder is used with the camera it is recommended that the optionally available tripod adapter plate LDK 5030 be used. This tripod plate has an extra locking lever (5) at the rear which provides an additional clamp for the rear stud and so gives extra stability to the mount.

When the camera is mounted on the tripod tighten this locking lever (5) to ensure that the stud (2) at the rear of the plate is locked firmly in place.

When removing the camera first open the locking lever (5) to free the rear stud (2).
