Mounting the Camera to a Tripod
Mount the camera to a tripod, using an optional VCT-U14

Caution
• 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.
