nikon mount

[Gregory Sheffer]

I am switching to the nikon mount. What is the best way to do this? Have RED do it or just order the adaptor and do it myself?

Go to youtube to see how it is done.
Thx,
Babu

After all that I had read, I was very surprised how easy it was. You can't be caviler but if you are just careful, it is really very straight forward. The youtube videos help a lot.

I just installed the nikon mount - but It seems to not lock into place like on my nikon still camera - you guys know why this could be? I aligned it so the "dot" is at "2´o clock".

thanks:)

Brent has a video here on REDuser (somewhere) that shows how to install. I did it on both my cameras and they still work... (the moral of that remark is... anyone should be able to do it)

Just go out and get a screwdriver and don't use the supplied tools... several people striped their screws trying to install the mount - including myself. Apparently a screwdriver with a handle will do the trick rather nicely.

thanks, it "clicks" in place in the video. but maybe you need to install the rubber pads?
