Camcorder (GY-DV500)
The GY-DV500 configuration is as shown below.
The front base mount may be locked while the pin of the
tripod base is not inserted into the hole on the rear base
mount of the unit. Therefore, after mounting, make sure
that these parts are engaged properly.
When moving the GY-DV500 mounted on a tripod, any
impact or vibration should be avoided as this may cause
the unit to become detached and to drop from the tripod.
Be sure to remove the unit from the tripod before
transporting it.
