Using a Tripod
The
camera
may
be
mounted
directly
to
a
tripod
by
screwing
the tripod into the socket at the base of the camera. Be sure the
tripod
screw
protrudes
no
more
than
5.5mm
(0.22in.)
from
the
tripod.
This
is
the
depth
of
your
camera's
tripod
socket.
Don't
use
a
longer
screw
as
it
may
puncture
the
bottom
of
the
tripod
socket
if
tightened too firmly
Tripod
Spacer:
In
order
to
prevent
large
diameter
lenses
from
interfering
with
proper
mounting
of
the
camera
to
the
tripod,
insert
the
Spacer
Ring
(packed
with
the
camera)
between
camera
and
tripod.
Finder
Cap:
When
you
make
exposures
with
your
eye
away
from
the
viewfinder
while
using
a
tripod
(or
at
any
other
time),
cover
the
viewfinder
eyepiece
with
the
accessory
Finder
Cap;
otherwise,
light
entering
from
the
rear
may
adversely
affect
the
exposure.
Time Exposures at '
Exposures
longer
than
4
sec.,
exceed
the
range
of
the
camera's
electronic shutter and must be made at the “В” setting of the
exposure mode dial. Here the shutter remains opened as long as
the
shutter
release
button
is
held
depressed.
To
prevent
movement
of
the
camera
during
exposure,
mount
it
on
a
tripod
and
attach
a
cable
release
to
the
hole
in
the
shutter
button
to
release
the
shutter.
For
exposures
lasting
several
minutes
or hours,
use
a cable
release
with
a locking
device.
