Ball-down (upside down) mounting: rotating the front cover

If you intend to mount your camera in the ball-down (upside down) mode, you must first rotate the camera’s front cover so that the drain hole is facing down when it is mounted.

Important

Use caution when attempting this procedure; there is a risk of water ingress and potential resulting damage to the camera if the cover is not reassembled correctly — the drain hole MUST be facing down when mounting the camera upside down.

  1. Press and hold the two locking buttons, as shown above.
  2. With the locking buttons held, pull the front and rear covers away from one another.
  3. Rotate the front cover 180° so that the drain hole is facing down when the camera is mounted upside down.
  4. Reassemble by pushing the front and rear covers together.
    Ensure that the covers are reassembled using the correct orientation, and that the drain hole is facing down.
