Preparations

Raise the lever in the center of the shoulder pad to 
unlock the shoulder pad.

Slide the shoulder pad backward or forward until it is 
in the most convenient position.

Bring down the lever to lock the shoulder pad in the 
selected position.

Mount the camera to a tripod using a VCT-14 Tripod 
Adaptor.

• Select an appropriate hole from among those at the 

bottom of the tripod adaptor considering the balance of 
the weight of the camera and the tripod adaptor. If an 
inappropriate hole is selected, the camera may fall over.

• Check that the size of the selected hole matches that of 

the screw of the tripod. If they do not match, the tripod 
adaptor cannot be attached to the tripod securely.

Attach the tripod adaptor to the tripod and secure it 
with the screw.

Place the camera on the tripod adaptor, and slide 
forward it along the groove of the tripod adaptor until 
it clicks.

To remove the camera from the tripod adaptor
Hold down the red button and pull the lever in the direction 
of the arrow.
