viewfinder out of the way so that your right leg
does not hit the viewfinder while you are carrying
the camcorder.

section "Moving the viewfinder shoe
up" to detach the viewfinder slide
assembly.
2
Attach the BKW-401 with the supplied
bolts.

Adjust the front-to-back position so
that the arm of the BKW-401 does not

Removing the eyepiece gives a clearer view of the
screen from further away. It is also easy to
remove dust from the viewfinder screen and
mirror when the eyepiece is detached.
