Mounting your camera on the Standard Camera Bracket

To mount your camera, first select the appropriate slot in the Vertical Camera Bracket that will best locate the tripod mounting thread on your camera.You may need to reposition the Captive Camera Knob.To remove the knob simply slide it along the slot to the end that has the threaded hole. Care- fully unscrew the knob out of the threaded hole, being careful not to crossthread the knob. Replace the knob into the appropriate slot by reversing the procedure.

Note: Whatever side of the Vertical Bracket you mount your camera on always keep the offset portion of the Vertical Bracket towards the rear of the camera.

The camera knob is a two piece knob, with a inner and outer knob. Before installing the camera knob in the Vertical Bracket, turn the in- ner knob clockwise into the outer knob until it won’t turn anymore. Next, install the knob into the ap- propriate slot then into the tripod mounting hole of your camera.

Turn the inner knob into the cam- era until it bottoms out, then turn the outer knob clockwise until the camera is tight on the Vertical Bracket. Don’t worry about get- ting the camera level at this time, as this is a task you’ll need to do when you’re ready to shoot.
