How to use the camera bracket

Introduction of camera tripod

The tripod has three legs, which can form a stable tripod. There is a tripod on the tripod, where the camera is placed and fixed. In addition, the height of the tripod can be adjusted as needed. Therefore, the use of the tripod will not affect the shooting effect because of the height limitation. At present, the cameras that need to use the tripod are mainly gun cameras and cameras with tripod. How to use the triangular bracket of the camera

1. Choose the location. Before deploying the bracket, you must find a safe clearing, which should be flat as far as possible. If it can't be flat, at least it should be stable to ensure that the bracket will not tip over when it is placed. In addition, you should pay attention to whether the upper space of the bracket is safe and whether there will be objects falling to damage the bracket. If you don't pay attention to this, not only the bracket may be damaged, but the camera may also be dangerous.

2. Deploy the support. The three legs of the triangular support can be deployed at will, but there is a limit to the scale of deployment. We should ensure that the scale of deployment of the legs is within this range.

3. Adjust the height of the bracket. The height adjustment should be carried out according to the actual needs. It should be noted that the bracket mostly adopts the sleeve structure. As it goes down, the straight pipe is thinner and the bearing capacity is smaller. Therefore, it is recommended that you use the upper sleeve as much as possible. If you must use the lower part, you should pull it out from top to bottom in order to ensure the stability of the branch pipe.

4. Adjust the pan/tilt to ensure that the pan/tilt is in a horizontal state, fix the camera on the pan/tilt, and then adjust the angle to shoot. Maintenance method of camera triangular bracket

Most places where brackets are used are places with special environment, such as seaside, high mountains and deep valleys. These places are changeable and easy to encounter strong wind or rainstorm weather. At this time, triangular brackets are easy to get into water and sand. If we don't pay attention to maintenance, it will easily lead to damage and aging of brackets and reduce their service life. Therefore, if we encounter special environment or special weather, we must maintain the brackets.

The key point of maintenance lies in the joints between the support branch pipes and sleeves. If water or sand enters, we can dip cotton cloth or gauze in water to clean it, dry it naturally after cleaning, and then apply a layer of grease to the joints and stretch it repeatedly to make it evenly spread.

The usual maintenance mainly lies in that the bracket should be placed vertically, and no heavy objects should be stored on it, so as not to crush the bracket. In addition, if the bracket needs to be placed for a long time, all the locking structures on the bracket must be opened, which will easily cause damage to the bracket. If this can be done, I believe the service life of the bracket will be greatly improved.
