3.1 Attaching the Top Handle to Your Camera Rig

1. Identify the 3/8"-16 ARRI locating holes or 1/4"-20 threaded holes on your camera cage or rig.
2. Align the base of the SMALLRIG Top Handle with the desired mounting points.
3. Secure the handle using the provided locking knob and washer. Ensure it is tightened firmly with the Allen wrench to prevent any wobble.

3.2 Mounting the DJI Focus Pro LiDAR Module

1. Attach the dedicated mounting bracket for the DJI Focus Pro LiDAR to the telescoping rail system on the top handle.
2. Slide the DJI Focus Pro LiDAR module into the mounting bracket.
3. Use the telescoping rail to adjust the LiDAR module's vertical and horizontal position. The goal is to position the LiDAR as close to the front of the lens as possible to minimize parallax and optimize autofocus accuracy.

4.1 Using the Telescoping Module

The telescoping rail system allows for fine-tuning the position of the DJI Focus Pro LiDAR module. Loosen the locking knob on the rail, adjust the LiDAR module to the desired vertical and horizontal position, and then re-tighten the knob to secure it. This adjustment helps in achieving optimal focus accuracy by minimizing the distance between the LiDAR and the lens.

4.2 Utilizing the Integrated Measuring Scale

A 23cm / 9.05in measuring scale is integrated into the handle. This scale provides direct distance measurements between the LiDAR glass plane and the camera's focal plane. Use this scale during calibration to ensure precise distance readings for your focusing system.

4.3 Accessory Mounting Options

The top handle features multiple mounting points for various accessories:

• Zomangira Nsapato Zozizira: Two cold shoe mounts (front and rear) allow for attaching microphones, video lights, or monitors.
• ARRI Locating Holes: These holes enable the attachment of monitor mounts (e.g., SMALLRIG ID: 2903B) for expanding your monitoring setup.
• Mabowo Okhala ndi Ulusi a 1/4"-20: Multiple 1/4"-20 threaded holes and locating holes are available for attaching articulating arms (e.g., SMALLRIG ID 4194, 4900) or other compatible accessories.

6.1 Handle Wobble After Installation

If the handle exhibits wobble even after finger-tightening:

• Ensure the locking knob is fully engaged and tightened with the Allen wrench.
• Verify that the mounting holes on your camera rig are compatible with the handle's 3/8"-16 ARRI locating pins or 1/4"-20 threads. Slight variations in manufacturing tolerances between different brands or even within the same brand's product lines can sometimes lead to a less-than-perfect fit.
• Consider using a NATO clamp adapter if your rig supports it, to provide a quick-release and potentially more secure mounting solution.

6.2 LiDAR Module Not Adjusting Smoothly

If the LiDAR module does not slide smoothly on the telescoping rail:

• Ensure the locking knob for the telescoping rail is fully loosened.
• Check for any debris or obstructions on the rail. Clean if necessary.
