Setting Up the Camera

Mounting the Camera to a Tripod
Mount the camera to a tripod using a VCT-14 Tripod
Adaptor.
Select an appropriate hole from among those at the
bottom of the tripod adaptor considering the balance of
the weight of the camera and the tripod adaptor. 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 tripod
adaptor cannot be attached to the tripod securely.
Mounting procedure
1
Attach the tripod adaptor to the tripod and secure it
with the screw.

Place the camera on the tripod adaptor, and slide
forward it along the groove of the tripod adaptor until
