question
What is the minimum camera weight for effective counterbalance? I read that you need at least 10 pounds for this video head to balance properly. My rig is 9 pounds.
According to Miller the payload range of the DS-20 is 5.0-10.0kg (11.0-22.0lbs) You would have to have 2 more lbs. Otherwise you will be fighting the head as you move.
