Introduction to cameras

Parts of setting up the camera: 

 3 legged dolly : This is a very sturdy and durable platform with wheels, which allows the camera and camera man to move around smoothly, without any form of trouble
 Tripod : This is used to stabilise and elevate the camera, all tripods have 3 legs - the tripod has a tilt and pan aspect, allowing fluid movement. 
Camera : This is the  device for recording movement and images





1.To open the  3 legged dolly, press the button on each leg and extend them in an outwards direction, until they are fully stretched out and so the wheels are on the floor and is fully stable for the next part.

2. Then to extend the legs of the tripod, loosen the screw and let the leg fall, do this one at a time and then place and secure into the dolly. - to secure the tripod into the dolly, pull up the rubber bungees and clip them into place so that the legs do not move out place. 

3. Lastly,  place the camera onto the tripod, with its back facing the red lever. There will be a click that will heard, which confirms that the camera is secured and will not come out of place.
