Tilt Function FLM CB-58 FTR ii, Possible to move laterally?!
.
Hello all, wish you a pleasing day.
Thanks for sharing your experience or knowledge.
Initially, it's one of the best if not the best in its size range.
But, have had the chance to test two sample of this tripod head.
First one came with its tilt function could not be fully utilized.
The camera, even a medium format, could be moved laterally even
when tightened to max.
When I unscrewed the tilt knob, found the red "O" ring flattened,
and looked that the metal rim of the internal side of the knob, could scratch the ball !
The second one has much more tension, but still the camera can move
laterally with just a moderate push.
Is it manufacturer standards?
Thanks.
