When detached, the LCD screen can be connected to the camera using the provided
right-angled USB extender cable. An additional USB cable can be added to extend the
length. The efficiency of operating the camera in this way is highly dependent on the
quality of the additional USB cable and the environment in which the camera is being
used.
The screen has been designed for ease of use on a workbench, as shown in the figure

6.4.8 Advanced camera controls, page 24).
