Mounting the Microphone

Installing the Memory Card and Batteries

On a Camera:

1. Slide the microphone onto the camera shoe.

2.

Tighten the knurled ring to secure.

Tip:

In addition to the vibration isolation provided by the

shock mount, the low-cut filter can be used to further

eliminate handling noise and low frequency rumble.

The VP83F requires two AA batteries to operate (compatible with Alkaline,

NiMH, or Lithium). Installing a MicroSD memory card enables recording

functionality.

Audio is still passed through to the camera and headphone outputs if there is no memory

card installed.

① Opening the front panel

Squeeze the latches on each side and open the front panel to access the

memory card and battery compartment.

② Installing the memory card

Always turn the power off before removing or installing a memory card.

To Install:

Insert the card into the slot located above the battery door,

with the contacts facing up. When fully inserted, the card locks into place.

To Remove:

Press the card to unlock it, then pull it from the device.

Note:

Format the memory card in the device prior to first use. Refer to the memory

card requirements section in the user guide for additional information.

③ Installing and replacing batteries

Open the battery door located inside the front panel by pressing the

fastener down. Insert the batteries according to the polarity indicators.

Note:

The battery door must be closed and latched before closing the front panel.

On a Tripod:

The 1/4 inch screw hole at the base of the shoe mount is compatible with tripods that have a 1/4 inch center column. Carefully rotate the microphone

clockwise to tighten onto a tripod. For other mounting solutions, such as microphone stands or boom poles, an adapter may be required.
