Using a selfie stick with a camera generally involves these steps: connecting the camera, adjusting the mount, and positioning the camera.
Here's a breakdown:
-
Connect Your Camera:
- Use a Bluetooth connection if both the selfie stick and camera support it. This allows you to trigger the shutter button on the stick.
- If Bluetooth isn't available, you might need a cable to connect the camera to the stick (if supported by the camera and selfie stick).
- Some older selfie sticks rely solely on a timer function on your camera.
-
Adjust the Mount:
- Extend the selfie stick to your desired length.
- Adjust the angle of the camera mount to frame your shot correctly.
-
Secure and Position Your Camera:
- Place your camera sideways in the screen mount or bracket, ensuring it is securely fastened. Expand the bracket to fit the camera's size.
- Carefully extend the stick, keeping a firm grip.
- Use the shutter button on the handle (if connected via Bluetooth or cable) or the camera's self-timer to take the photo or video.
