INSTALLING THE CAMERA

Since the FA6500 V2 Housing is specifically designed for the Sony a6500 and a6300 mirrorless digital
cameras, installing the camera in the housing is quite simple.
1. If possible, it is recommended to install the camera inside the housing after the lens port has
been mounted on the housing. If using exceptionally large lenses which cannot be installed on
the camera prior to inserting it into the housing since the lens is too large be inserted through
the housing lens port hole, the lens port should be mounted on the housing only after the
camera and lens have been inserted. In such cases, please follow the instructions provided in
step 18 below for camera installation.
2. Open the housing (see section "Opening
the Housing").
3. Prepare the camera following the
instructions provided in the section
"Preparing the Camera".
4. Turn the camera tray port lock
rightwards, to the "UNLOCK" position
(image #42).
5. Remove the camera tray from its port by
gently sliding it out.
6. Prior to mounting the camera on the
tray, the camera LCD screen should be tilted in order to
allow proper attachment to the tray. Pull out the bottom
of the LCD screen all the way out (image #43). After
camera installation, the LCD screen should be realigned
for a clear view.
7. Mount the camera on the tray by installing the mounting
screw featured on the tray into the mounting screw hole
found at the bottom of the camera (image #44 on the
following page). Make sure to follow the diagram printed
on the tray and install the camera facing forward. Once the
screw has been tightened, make sure that the camera is positioned steadily on the tray.
