the short slot is for fixing compact
cameras (Fuji mirrorless camera can
be fixed in the short slot).

thumb screw of the tilt axis and push the
camera to move forward or backward until
the camera can stay still with the lens facing

by tightening up the thumb screw.
• Loosen the thumb screw of the quick release
