Attach the Shoulder Strap
The camcorder’s shoulder strap is designed to let you carry the camcorder from your
shoulder and – when you are ready to shoot – bring the camcorder to shooting position
in one quick movement.

Cautions: When carrying the camcorder with the shoulder strap, you may
find it convenient to close the LCD monitor and rotate the viewfinder down.
This helps prevent possible damage to the monitor or viewfinder from bump-
ing against your body as you move. Make sure the shoulder strap is firmly
attached before using it to carry the camcorder.
3. Thread the end of the strap back
through the keeper and buckle
making sure it is threaded under the
outer strap. Make sure the strap is
not twisted.
4. Attach the other end of the strap to the
other shoulder strap attachment ring.
5. Adjust the shoulder strap to the
desired length.
6. Slide both keepers up snugly against
the shoulder strap attachment rings to
prevent the strap from slipping.
