UniClamp Instructions
Here we’ll demonstrate, using our Nikon CP 950. The purpose of the photo is to show the Camera Tripod Mount Platform attached, and alignment of the Center Line of the UniClamp with respect to the center line of the Camera Lens. With this type of camera, the lens is fixed (doesn’t move in or out) and we’re going to continue to bring the UniClamp closer until they actually meet. Please remember that no locking Thumb Screws are tight at this point, if they were, you could not make the adjustments needed and possibly damage the camera.
In this photo, the final adjustment is made. This adjustment is centering the camera lens in reference to the center of the UniClamp Adapter. Don’t become frustrated, it takes a little practice because you are moving in 3 directions at the same time. Once you feel you have proper alignment, now tighten the Thumb Screws in the following order. Camera Tripod Mount Platform, The Thumb Screw on the Camera Tripod Mount Platform, and then the Thumb Screw on the UniClamp Adapter (Do Not Disturb the 3 Thumb Screws on Body of the UniClamp Adapter). During this process, things can have a tendency to move, so you will need to correct for those adjustments, but make them from a loose perspective as trying to force things while they are tight could cause damage to the Adapter and Camera (meaning, if you have loosen the Thumb Screws that you just tightened, do so).
Now replace assembly on Microscope Eyepiece. Being careful not to crash the Microscope Eyepiece into the Camera Lens and tighten the loosened Thumb Screw.
