Does BV-5 provide any counterbalance force at all? I know it doesn't have adjustable counterbalance, but fixed perhaps?
Asked by: Chris
Evidently the newer ones do. Mine was bought in March 2025 and it does have a counterbalance spring. It appears to be mild; it returns my Z50 II and FTZ and 70-300mm lens, with a home-made lens support, to horizontal, but slowly.
