1. Choose an appropriate sized mounting plate.
Even if your tripod mount ring only has one tap
hole, choose a mounting plate that is long enough
to perfectly balance your camera.
2. Before attaching the mounting plate, it may be
necessary to adjust the middle locking pin (j) to the
conditions of your tripod mount ring. If necessary,
unscrew the locking pin with a 2 mm hex-wrench.
3. Screw the mounting plate to the tripod mount
ring of your lens. Watch for the locking pin at the
end of the mounting plate: it should face to the rear
of the camera (e.g. towards the photographer).
4. Bring the inner U-bar (g) to it’s lowest position
and tighten the friction and locking knobs (d+c),
then make sure that your tripod is in a stable posi-
tion.
5. Fastening the lens to the mounting clamp may
be done from above or from behind. First loosen
the mounting clamp locking knob (e) far enough to
accept the mounting plate (the screw is self-locking
to protect against loss).
6. Place the lens into the mounting clamp and tight-
en the locking knob, making sure to keep a hold on
the lens until it is firmly attached.
