➪
Select 0 on the vertical drag adjustment ring.
➪
Open the lock of sliding balance plate.
You have to push back red lever underneath the balance
plate as far as possible.
➪
By moving the sliding balance plate forwards and back-
wards you have to find the position where the camera is
balanced horizontally. Rear-heavy cameras are moved
to the front, front-heavy cameras are moved to the
back. You will find it easier when holding the camera in
a horizontal position.
➪
Lock the sliding balance plate by pulling the red lever
into its initial position.
Caution:
If you can’t manage to centre the camera, you
should move the camera plate to a different
position on the tripod mounting adapter.
3.6 Adjusting the camera´s counterbalance
➪
Hold the camera by securing the pan bar.
➪
Turn the counterbalance knob to that number which
best compensates for the weight of the camera.
➪
After each spring is released, check if the camera will
remain in a tilted position, without moving upwards or
downwards significantly.
Please note:
A lower counterbalance setting becomes
immediately effective in any tilt position. An
increase of the counterbalance setting will only
be effective in the horizontal position (springs
must click in audibly)
.
