The A-minima Top Handle

The A-minima top handle has been design to accommodate new

ways of carrying, operating or mounting the camera.

Safely attached to the camera 3/8" top insert, the orientable top han-

dle also provides camera on/off capability, LCD monitor mounting

or an extra 3/8"insert to receive accessories such as french flags or

assistant lights.

As standard, a camera run function is available from the Top

Handle. The On/Off cable delivered with the handle must be con-

nected to the Lemo 6 socket located at the rear of the camera. While

hand-holding the camera, press the switch two times (within 1 sec-

ond) to start the camera. Press one time to stop the camera.

The handgrip can be adjusted for maximum handheld operating

comfort. Use a 4mm Allen L wrench to loosen the attachment knob.

Rotate the handgrip around the knob axe until your preferred posi-

tion is found and lock the knob.Note that the handle is parallel to

the bottom of the camera.

The 3/8" insert, located on front of the Top Handle can easily and

safely hold accessories such as French flags, assistant lights, HF

transmitters...

An optional Aaton ball & socket head is also available in order to

use the Top Handle as a small LCD monitor holder. Simply screw

the ball & socket head on the 3/8 insert located at the front of the

Top Handle and attach your monitor. The ball & socket head pro-

vides three dimensional monitor positions and a large knurdle knob,

located at the base of the head, can be used to adjust the tension of

the head or lock it in a desired position.

When using the Transvideo A-Monitor, a small track, located at the

bottom of the monitor offers intermediate mounting positions and

can be used to effectively balance the camera.
