it is facing upwards. Offer up the lens into the camera body and rotate
clockwise until a click is heard.
Locate the lens mount locking bolt.

Insert the supplied 2.5mm Allen key into the bolt and rotate
4
clockwise half a turn to engage the lens mount lock.
Before mounting a lens
ensure the metal collar
is in position and the
joint is aligned with the
location lug.

ATTACHING THE LENS SHIELD

clockwise until the shield locks.
To detach the lens,
press the lens release
button on the side of

NB:
Do not overtighten as damage
to the lens mount may occur
To mount the shield for the 35mm
lens it is first necessary to mount
the adaptor ring to the existing outer
lens mount. This adaptor ring is held
in place with 4 screws.
Once this has been mounted, you
can attach the lens and then mount
the shield and secure it with a turn
in the clockwise direction.
