416 Lightweight Support LWS-5
The 416 Lightweight Support LWS-5 is a sturdy, three point
bracket for mounting 15 mm lightweight support rods. The
LWS-5 is fitted with an Accessory Rosette to replace the
camera‘s rosette which is covered when the LWS-5 is
fitted a photo .
• Fit the LWS-5 to the camera by first engaging the two
guide pins of the upper 3/8-16 screw on the camera
right side a photo . This will position the LWS-5 so
that the 3/8-16 screw on the front of the bracket lines
up with the threaded hole In the camera. Engage this
screw by a few threads but leave it loose a photo .
• Tighten the two screws on the camera right side – the
lower one is accessed through a hole in the Accessory
Rosette teeth a photo .
• Tighten the front screw.
• Slide the support rods into the guides and clamp.
Note: Due to the camera‘s small dimensions and because
the distance from the lens to the support rods is
fixed, the rod clamps of the LWS-5 project below
the camera base. To mount the camera with the
LWS-5 fitted on a support system such as the Steadi-
cam, it is necessary to fit the 416 Riser. This
presents a flat base, clear of the support rods,
with selection of threaded holes.
