Sony HDLA1500 Mounting the Camera in the Adaptor

Installation

When attaching the V-wedge shoe, taking the total weight

of the adaptor, camera, studio lens and viewfinder, and the

size of the pan and tilt head of the tripod into consideratio n,

choose a position such that the unit will be mounted stably

on the tripod.

Some tripods cannot be attached unless the feet and cable

hanger are removed from the adaptor.

Remove the feet and hanger to use such a tripod.

For use of the HDVF-9900 viewfinder in combination,

attach the stopper supplied with the adaptor to the side

panel of the adaptor.

Mounting the Camera in the Adaptor

• Be sure to turn off the camera power before mounting.

• If the camera is mounted with the power ON, the

protection circuit of the adaptor will be activated. In such

a case, unmount the camera from the adaptor, turn off the

power, wait for more than 30 seconds, then mount it

again.

Mounting procedure

While the figures of the adaptors in the following steps

show the states where the studio lens and the large

viewfinder are not attached, the camera can also be

mounted after attaching the large lens and the large

viewfinder to the adaptor.

For the HDLA1507, start from step 2.

Check that the camera lock lever on the front panel is

in its upper position.
