Mounting the SteadyPix Pro on
a Tripod
The SteadyPix Pro can be mounted
on any camera tripod equipped with
a ¼"-20 post. This is useful when
photographing through a small
monocular, where the weight of the
monocular can be supported solely by
the eyepiece clamp of the SteadyPix
Pro, while the heavier SteadyPix Pro is
attached to the tripod (see Figure 8).
Attach the SteadyPix Pro by threading
the tripod’s ¼"-20 post into the ¼"-20
socket (G).
