Anyone ever seen or used camera weights? Seems like the extra weight would not be good for gimbal

I had to use some when I had my standard trying to use
A Snake River filter way back and never had any issues but
didn’t use that filter long. To much trouble taking them off when I changed filters then upgraded birds.

There were a number of threads in the past couple of years, but they were mostly discussing the use of weights to counter balance the camera when using a filter that weighed too much. The heavier filters were causing the pitch motor to overload, and cut out. The result of that was a camera that would hold level, then drop straight down. It seems like the pitch motor would kick back in, then the process would repeat.
AFAIK, the only effect of the added weight is on the drone itself.
