I am in the process of converting a 45V-XL into a copy stand. I am just about done, but would like to lessen the spring tension of the carriage. Even with a heavy camera mounted, the carriage still shoots up too easily. Short of adding more weight within the carriage, is there a way to adjust the tension of the coil springs?
I don't have a manual handy. If there is literature about this particular issue, a link would be appreciated.
