2-inch Viewfinder
To mount the 2-inch viewfinder proceed as follows:
a. Loosen locking ring (1) of viewfinder support bracket (2)
at the front of the camera handle. (As seen from the rear
of the camera, turning the locking ring counterclockwise
moves it towards the handle.)
b. Slide the viewfinder onto the viewfinder support bracket.
c. Tighten the locking ring (1) by turning it clockwise (as
seen from rear) so that the viewfinder is mounted securely
to the support.
d. Connect the viewfinder cable to the viewfinder connector
socket (6) at the top right of the camera.
e. Slide the microphone holder (4) onto the viewfinder and
secure with the knurled screw (5).
CAUTION
Always fit the microphone holder (4) as it functions
as a safety stop for the viewfinder.
f.
To improve the comfort of the skin contact when using the
viewfinder, fit the optional eye piece cover (3922 405
00461) to the rubber eyepiece (3).
Positioning the 2-inch viewfinder
The horizontal position of the viewfinder can be adjusted as
follows to suit your requirements:
a. Loosen the locking ring (1). (As seen from the rear of the
camera, turning the locking ring counterclockwise moves
it towards the handle.)
b. Slide the viewfinder horizontally along the rail to the
desired position.
c. Tighten the locking ring (1) by turning clockwise.
The dioptre hood and eyepiece of the viewfinder can be
rotated vertically.
The viewfinder can be positioned backwards and forwards
along the camera axis. Loosen the support bracket round bar
retaining lever (2) and slide the round bar (3) forwards or
backwards. When the desired position is reached tighten the
support bracket round bar retaining lever (2) again.
To use the viewfinder at a distance press the button (4) below
or above the eyepiece tube and swing it free of the associated
clip (5). The display can now be seen from further away.
