The front weight slider on a Smoothee can be adjusted up or down to achieve desired tilt behavior
An auxiliary lens attachment causing weight imbalance can be counterweighted using washers attached with velcro on the opposite side of the device
The Smoothee has side-to-side adjustment capability to compensate for asymmetrical weight from a lens mounted to one side of the phone
When adding counterweight to one side, additional bottom weight may be needed to maintain proper balance
A balanced gimbal should have a drop time of approximately one second when tilted from horizontal to vertical position

The discussion does not confirm whether the specific Moondog Labs anamorphic lens will actually work with the Smoothee or whether the suggested workarounds fully resolve the balance issue
No measurements or weight specifications were provided for the lens or washers
The approach using hardware store washers is presented as untested at the time of the discussion
