Asking on wider range of newsgroups. Maybe others have already gone

One thing you might try is to remove the batteries and use the
external 120V power adapter. 4AAAs weigh 120 gm. Even if that leaves a
heavy camera, it'll lighten the requirement for the counterweights, if
you feel you still need those.
