LENS WEIGHT AND LENS SUPPORT
Use a lens support system when mounting heavy or long lenses to your camera.
When mounting a heavy or long lens, ensure that the full weight of the lens is never directly on the camera or lens
mount. Mount the lens to the support system first, and then carefully mount the lens to the camera.
WARNING: Failure to use lens supports appropriate for the lens and camera setup may lead to damage of the camera
and lens mount. Any damage caused by not using a lens support system is not covered under warranty.

This section describes the appropriate method for attaching and detaching PL lenses. For more information, refer to
