Hey Folks,
A buddy of mine was playing around with my Cambo SF and managed to break off both of my rise/fall knobs. (You'd think he'd've learned after the first one snapped...)
Do you know where I can find replacement parts for this guy? Or do you know of a DIY solution?
I've tried using clamps to hold the standards in place, but they still slip. When functional, the knobs work by pulling (not pushing) the C-bracket closer to the knob as you twist it tighter via a spring (this is why clamps don't work). I'm pretty bummed out about this camera being out of commission, so any help is much appreciated.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
