Quick Links

1. Take off factory lens shade.
2. With camera upside down,
center the Zacuto Universal
Base Plate on the bottom of
camera and mount it to the
camera with captured ¼ 20
screw.
3. If you purchased a HVX200 lens ring, put the
white hoop around the lens.
4. Next, put the metal gear
around the white hoop.
5. Using the small enclosed Allen wrench, tighten the
metal gear onto the white hoop. This may take a few
times to adjust. A fairly loose fit is correct. Be
careful not to tighten too hard or you will put tension
on the focusing mechanism of the camera and
focusing will be rough.
