It's not clear how a camera can be adjusted to be parallel to the board. What I see in the photos allows the camera to be adjusted left/right by rotation, but how to make sure the lens doesn't droop towards the column?
The Kaiser Copy Stand RS 2 with 29" Column and 16 x 20" Baseboard is supplied with a repro arm with 1/4" mounting screw to hold lighter cameras.
It is very solid and unless you are using a very heavy camera which it is not made for it should not tilt forward.

Is this copy stand robust enough to support a Fujifilm GFX 50R, a 32-64mm zoom lens, and an extension tube, without wobbling and swaying? This combo weighs about 4.5 pounds. Can this stand handle that much weight and be rigidly solid?
This stand is rated for 1.5kg or about 3.3 lbs.

Hello! Does anyone know the length from the upper surface of the baseboard to the camera mounting screw (which would approximate the focal plane of the camera)? I'm confused if 29" is it, or if 29" is the total height of the vertically adjustable arm. Thanks :)
The length of 29" would be for the entire column. Unfortunately, Kaiser does not publish the measurement from the camera mounting screw to the upper surface of the baseboard as the position of the camera mount can change.

If using this copy stand to scan B&W negatives, how woudl one insure that the camera focal plane is parallel to baseboard?
If your camera has a hot shoe, you may purchase either the Vello Three-Axis Hot-Shoe Bubble Level for Standard 35mm SLR Cameras, B&H # VEBLHS3, or the Vello Two-Axis Hot-Shoe Bubble Level, B&H # VEBLHS2, for your usage needs. This would allow you to ensure the camera is level both vertically and horizontally.

question
Your picture and description say that a camera arm is included, but the In the Box section and the title do not mention the camera arm. Is a camera arm included and if so, which one? Thank you.
There is no actual arm in the box. Whats in the picture is all thats included. A rotating lever handle and a basic 1/4 thread and base plate for the camera to mount on (like your standard tripod)
