PORTRAIT CAMERA BRACKET

The Ringlite Converter also includes a portrait
camera bracket. To use the portrait camera bracket
the landscape bracket must already be in place and
secured to the Ringlite.
To attach the portrait bracket the user must first
remove the 45mm synthetic washer from the
landscape bracket and then place the portrait
bracket on top of the mounting bolt on the
landscape bracket. Attach the two brackets together
securely by then tightening the bolt. Make sure the
two small white runners on the portrait bracket line
up and sit correctly next to the landscape bracket to
allow ease of movement.
Finally place the 45mm synthetic washer over the
mounting bolt on the portrait bracket (see figure 3.)
to hold the camera in place once connected (see
figure 4.).

CAMERA MOUNTING BOLT ADAPTOR

The Ringlite Converter is supplied with two standard
1/4" camera mounting bolts (one for each bracket;
landscape and portrait), which is the industry
standard size for tripod sockets and mounting
threads.
There are however some camera manufacturers /
brands that use a different 3/8" size socket. To
enable full compatibility with all camera mount
sockets a 1/4" (figure 5.) to 38" (figure 6.) adaptor
sleeve. To attach the 1/4" to 3/8" adaptor sleeve
simply place over the standard 1/4" mounting bolt
and screw into place.
