Attach a camera to a mounting head
With a standard mounting head, the plate is
screwed into one of the mounting points at the top
or bottom of the camera. Attach the plate to the top
or bottom of the camera according the desired
mounting orientation relative to the mounting head.
Note that the plate has arrows to indicate the
alignment with the lens when you screw the plate
into the camera and for when you lock it into the
mounting head.
Use the arrows to position the plate correctly
over the required mounting point and firmly
screw and lock it into place.

Tips
To avoid slippage while mounting the camera,
adjust the tilt and roll levers on the head to neutral
orientations and ensure they are tight.
Tighten the pan lever on the head and then
thread the mounting head onto the stud.
Ensure that the quick release lever is locked
“open”.
When you lay out the cable, ensure that you have
enough length to allow for any adjustments needed.
If you are mounting the camera on a rail,
attach the plate to the camera on the
ground before you bring the camera up to
the rail.
