(36)Tripod receptacle

This is a hole for attaching the camera to optional tripod/VW-CT45E. (Please carefully read the operating instructions for how to attach the tripod to the camera.)

When the tripod is used, operate the camera from the free style remote control for convenience. (When not using the remote control, attach the clip to the grip belt for convenience. When you move with remote control attached to a pocket, etc., take care to avoid falling of the tripod.)

You cannot open the card slot cover when the tripod is used. Insert the card first and then attach the tripod.

Put the strap through the fixture 1 and through the stopper 2 so it will not come off. Extend part 3 by at least 2 cm.

Fit the other end of the belt similarly.

In order to remove the lens hood, rotate it counterclockwise 1. In order to fit it, put into slot 2, and then rotate it clockwise.

Fit the MC protector or the ND filter of the Filter Kit (VW-LF37WE; optional) in front of the lens hood. Do not fit the other accessories on the hood. (Except for the lens cap)

(Refer to the operating instructions for the Filter Kit.)

When fitting the tele conversion lens (VW-LT3714ME; optional) or the wide conversion lens (VW-LW3707M3E; optional), first remove the lens hood.

(Refer to the operating instructions for the tele conversion lens or the wide conversion lens.)

When 2 lens accessories, such as the ND filter and tele conversion lens, are fitted and the [W/T] lever is pressed toward the [W] side, the 4 corners of an image will be darkened. (Vignetting)

The lens hood has a built-in lens cover.
