Tripod And Camera
- Make sure that the legs of the tripod are spread equally for balance on a flat surface so the tripod doesn't slip or fall off the desk.
- Next extend the adjustable legs to the desired height, each leg at the same height, and then clamp them into place to secure them. If each leg is not at the same height it will be unbalanced.
- Then you Attach the base of the camera to the head of the tripod. Screw the post, which is located in the center of the head, into the hole at the base of the camera. Most cameras come already equipped with a small indention on the bottom. Usually, the tripod will have a movable base however if this is not the case, the camera can be turned repeatedly until it is secured onto the base of the tripod. If it is not screwed on properly, the camera may fall off and break
- Now you adjust the tripod head to the desired angle using the pivoting handle attached to the mount. Make sure this mechanism is balanced properly to prevent the camera, as well as the entire tripod, from falling forward.
- Then once the tripod has been set up and the camera has been positioned, the LED screen can be flipped out to start recording. Ensure the shutter has been opened. otherwise you will be filing a black screen.
- Finally practice some zooming, panning and different angles with the camera by using the handle and controls. it takes practice, otherwise your filming wont be clear.
