2.7 Tripod adapter plate

To mount the camera on a tripod, the tripod plate LDK 5031/10 must first be attached to the
tripod. Follow the tripod manufacturer's instructions to mount the wedge plate supplied with
the tripod and the tripod adapter plate firmly onto the tripod. Attach the camera to the tripod
adapter plate as follows:
1.
Slide the camera horizontally along the tripod adapter plate from back to front ensuring
that the front of the camera engages the V-slot (1) at the front of the tripod adapter plate,
and that the slot on the bottom of the camera engages the stud (2) at the rear of the tripod
adapter plate.
2.
Firmly push the camera forward until it clicks into place.
3.
When the camera is mounted firmly, the locking lever (5) swings around fully to the rear of
the plate. If the lever does not travel the full distance, you should manually lock it into
place.
Caution
Failure to attach the camera to the tripod adapter plate in the correct manner could result in an
unsecured camera. Ensure that the rear stud (2) is engaged and that the camera clicks into
place.
