- Mounting the Bracket to a Tripod/Stand:
The center of the bracket has a 3/8-inch threaded hole for mounting onto a tripod or light stand. Align this hole with the 3/8-inch screw on your tripod head or stand.

Operating Instructions
Once your devices are securely mounted, you can adjust their positions along the slotted tracks of the bracket. Loosen the knurled knobs slightly to slide the devices to your desired spacing, then tighten the knobs firmly to lock them in place. This allows for flexible arrangements, such as side-by-side camera setups for stereoscopic photography or combining a camera with a light source or microphone.
For 3D stereo stereoscopic photography, ensure both cameras are aligned precisely and capture images simultaneously for optimal results. Experiment with different distances between cameras to achieve varying depth effects.
Maintenance
- Keep the bracket clean by wiping it with a soft, dry cloth after each use.
- Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these may damage the finish.
- Regularly check all screws and knobs for tightness to ensure secure mounting of equipment.
- Store the bracket in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
