I have trouble pointing my scope for digiscoping. Having aimed it in the right direction using the handle attached to the tripod head, I let go and the telesope with its camera attached sags and the field of view changes. I have to aim the scope at some point below my subject, guessing where the system is going to end up. I had wondered if my tripod and head were too flimsy but it is a Manfrotto 190 NAT with 128RCNAT Head which seem fairly robust and are in common use. Is my problem commonplace, to be expected and everyone else has the same difficulty or is there something wrong with my system? If it is standard, what do you do? Add a counterweight? I have a need for some fine screw control for altitude. Does such a thing this exist?
