Is there a way to soften the finding of the end stops when using auto calibration w cforce mini motors? I know I can turn down the overall torque ( I leave it at 3) but then I'd have to change it back every time since it makes long pulls too slow at 1 or 2. I'm using some delicate lenses and I think the finding of the ends is stressing them too much

Any solution? Don't some focus units have this feature?

Hello,

no, the only way is to set down the torque for the calibration and after that change it back.

best regards

Is there not some way that could be automated so that it automatically sets the motor torque to 2 then changes it back? I mean, I can do it by pressing the buttons in a certain sequence, so why can't that be programmed to a one push solution? Possible or not? Many would like this feature. Have talked with several people who have had damaged lenses b/c torque was too high when calibrating. Especially in this day and age of using vintage/delicate lenses.

Every ac would welcome this feature.
