Preparations and Installation 2 Chapter

1

VF1

CT2RL

When the supplied center handle is attached to the top of the camera head, you can attach the viewfinder to the viewfinder shoe of the center handle. In this case, first remove the viewfinder shoe from the camera head.

For details on the center handle, see “2-6-2 Center Handle (Supplied)” (page 23).

Note

When the L handle is attached to the camera head, the attaching condition may be limited, owing to the viewfinder position and the rotating position of the hood.

When the second viewfinder is required

Connect it to the VF2 connector.

Using the menus, you can specify the display condition independently of the viewfinder connected to the VF1 connector.

Note

When two viewfinders are connected at the same time (via the VF1 and VF2 connectors), if an HDVF-C950W is connected to either connector, use an HDVF-C35W as the other viewfinder. Because of a limitation of current capacity, two HDVF-C950W viewfinders cannot be used simultaneously.

To detach the viewfinder

Loosen the viewfinder positioning ring, pull on the viewfinder stopper, then pull out the viewfinder by sliding it in the direction opposite that when attaching.

2-5 Mounting the Camera to a Tripod

Two tripod receptacles (for 3/8” camera screws) are provided on the bottom of the camera head.

Tripod receptacles

Notes

•Select an appropriate hole, considering the balance of the weight of the camera. If an inappropriate hole is selected, the camera may fall over.

•Check that the size of the selected hole matches that of the screw of the tripod. If they do not match, the camera cannot be attached to the tripod securely.
