How to set up a camera and tripod

1. Ensure that the legs of the tripod are opened equally so the the camera doesn't fall over. And it should be set up on a flat surface.
2. Extend the adjustable legs to the desired height you should ensure each leg at the same height to avoid the tripod and camera falling over. Once at the desired hight the clamps should be placed down to secure them in place.
3. Attach the base of the camera to the head of the tripod. Screw the post, which is located in the centre of the head,
4. Adjust the tripod head to the desired angle using the pivoting handle attached to the mount. Make sure this mechanism is balanced properly to prevent the camera, as well as the entire tripod, from falling forward.
5. Once the tripod has been set up and the camera has been positioned, the LED screen can be flipped out to start recording. Ensure the shutter has been opened / removed from the camera
6. Practice some zooming and different angles with the camera by using the handle and controls
