    Hi, the lever that locks the camera plate into position on my MoVi M5 snapped off on a shoot recently. I am still able to 'lock' the camera in position, but it is a struggle.

    Is it possible to buy a replacement lever? CVP in the UK do a MoVi Repair/Emergency kit, but it's quite expensive and I really don't need all the bits - especially as it says it's for the M10 not the M5.

    Any ideas?

    Photo of what I'm talking about is attached.

    Thanks
    Adam

    I knew I couldn't be the only one o_O

    I broke like, 3 of these within a 2 week period on my M10. I looked into having some aluminum ones made but the cost was pretty high, then I stopped breaking them (through no fault of my own) so I lost interest. That emergency kit is the way to go, unless Freefly can send you out a few of those cam levers by themselves.
