(41)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 with mic 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.

(43)Lens hood

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-LF43WE; optional) in front of the lens hood. Do not fit the other accessories on the hood. (Except for the lens cap)

When fitting the tele conversion lens (VW-LT4314NE; optional) or the wide conversion lens (VW-LW4307ME; optional), first remove the lens hood.

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)

Fitting the lens cap

Fit the lens cap to protect the surface of the lens.

1Remove the grip belt. Run the end of the lens cap cord through the hole in the grip belt attachment part and run the lens cap through the lens cap cord.

The lens cap removed can be hung on the lens cap fixture. (It cannot be hung if the grip belt is used as a hand strap.)

To fit or remove the lens cap, hold both sides of the lens cap with the tips of your first 2 fingers.
