next up, you, me. 70-200GM + Crane 2 TEST VIDEO!

@JoaquimGonsalves 6 лет назад

Jason Vong haha looking fwd to that! As I have a tele but don't have an 85 prime. 85 primes make lovely compositions too. But gonna have to see that's the max we can do with a 70-200 on the crane 2

@MuwexTech 6 лет назад

@christianekananto5437 6 лет назад

awesome, your the best. i can use gimbal because you, thanks a lot and keep make video to teach some trick to use gimbal. once again thank you very much.

@kaisstudio8278 6 лет назад

9:42 Yup, that's what happened to me as well when I tried to balance my 24mm SLR magic with the anamorphic adapter WITH the follow focus motor system. I even had to add counter some weights to balance it EXCEPT for tilting. That worries me a little but the crane seem to operate like fine only that I am a little limited. I won't be doing a lot of tilting for sure lol

@rejiyuhana 4 года назад

thank you dear for this video

@joehuds0n 6 лет назад

cool. if only they'd added another ~1.5cm to the arm lengths, the 70-200gm would then be much more usable on it.. Obviously still a great gimbal, but I have the 70-200gm so really wanting a gimbal that can properly handle it.

@fahadmalik517 5 лет назад

awesum video i was having some jerking on my crane 2 and u sir fixed it ^^ thumbs up

@bebaq-bhaveshkakkar 5 лет назад

Hi, nice video but It just doesn't get balanced with kit lens or sigma 30mm-1.4 on sony6300. Can you help ? Can't get the tilt axis in balance even after hours. Can't set it up when lens facing the sky.

@landonzanidean8364 5 лет назад

Hey man! What’s that big heavy cage around your camera?????

@SBKProductions 5 лет назад

I can’t seem to figure out what’s the problem i recently bought a sigma 18-35mm to go with my canon T7i and i can’t get it balanced and i know how to balance my other lens! ........Every time i face the lens up it’s falls back and i keep adjusting the side axle but it’s just continues to fall back i can get everything else balance but not the side axle! I also has a battery grip on my T7i maybe that’s affecting it?

@dosfeos805 4 года назад

Just got the zhiyun crane v2 with my sony a6000 an sony 50mm 1.8 oss lens an I cant seem to get it balance when its pointing upwards it goes back to forward ? Anything I doing wrong or is my setup to light?

@BrianSladek 6 лет назад

Can you please test a heavy lens. I have a canon 80d and the sigma 18-35mm and it won't balance properly. Do I need a counterweight? It is very top heavy

@MomentumProductions1992 6 лет назад

I did test the 70-200. Also my 16-35 Zeiss. You shouldn't have to use a counterweight. Do you want me to make another balancing tutorial?

@BrianSladek 6 лет назад

Momentum Productions Thanks. I figured it out after a couple hours. It would be nice if we don’t have to fuss with this and the gimbal balances itself, but that is a product of the future I guess

@SBKProductions 5 лет назад

@briansladek how did you figure it out i can’t get my T7i+18-35mm sigma lens to balance ...

@brickolo_ 5 лет назад

Can I balance a 17-35 sigma with an m50 and adapter on the crane 2 without any cage etc..?

@BboyGraphicx 6 лет назад

Hi Josh, thanks for the video, what are your thoughts on the Cinemilled Dove plate , do you think a similar technique of adding weights to the base plate could assist with balancing front heavy lenses?

@elaineross9365 5 лет назад

Great video Josh. I learned to balance my crane v2 with Sony a6000 from u in a previous video. Best explanation yet. But now I have sony 24-105f4 lens with a6000. Won't balance the normal way. Do u think the manfrotto and cage method would solve it? I really need to get this system to work. If you can find a solution I'd be forever grateful.

@MomentumProductions1992 5 лет назад

Can you DM me some footage of you balancing on Instagram? @momentum_productions

@elaineross9365 5 лет назад

@@MomentumProductions1992 Josh I'd been told it was impossible with the a6000+sony 24-105f4 as it was too front heavy. I've actually percevered using your method and I've now managed to balance it. There's not a lot of clearance but it's still use able. I might just put a counterweight on a hot shoe to see if I can use some of the zoom. Thank you soooo much for your videos. I've always found them the most methodical and helpful, with the best results. You rock! Have an amazing day x

@krane15 Год назад

Actually I can see the adjustment just fine, and they are anything but small. A micro adjustment should be detectable with the eye. Maybe they're small in theory?

@Dfocusassam 6 лет назад

Hello, your videos have helped me a lot.

@TheNastydanny 6 лет назад

You should try adding some weights to your cage, so you can balance your sony lens properly!

@MomentumProductions1992 6 лет назад

Unfortunately, that won't work either, because the setup will be too tall. I would need the 1DX mounting plate for that :)

@Misstorys 6 лет назад

Why do you need the cage in the first place ?

@helloooooo473 6 лет назад

Hey dude, thanks for the super helpful video. What are your quick thoughts on the Crane 2 (not v2) vs the Feiyu a2000? Also if using a DSLR setup that is just under 2kg would you say the Crane 2 would handle it better?

@DoubleVisionSoundSystem 6 лет назад

Thanks for sharing. What motor strength do you use for the Rokinon and cage setup?

@MomentumProductions1992 6 лет назад

Medium. Thank you for watching :)

@brettantoni 6 лет назад

Thanks for this video! And I've been wanting to get the 70-200 gmaster lens so this was really helpful! What gimbal do you suggest using to balance the G Master lens?

@angel_falls_creative 6 лет назад

Thoughts on the Ronin S making that work with the 70-200?

@bt465 6 лет назад

Thanks bro. The pan adjustment got me confused though 🤔

@MomentumProductions1992 6 лет назад

Which part was confusing? Maybe I can share another video explaining better?

@bt465 6 лет назад

Momentum Productions the test for it so u see how the other ones camera falls forward or backwards, or right or left. I didn't get how to test for the pan u just pick it up and tilt it 45 degrees ? What if u were to tilt it to the right or left. I was confused by that . The pan adjustment in general

@anoopammanath7462 6 лет назад

Thanx for the tips.

@Misstorys 6 лет назад

Why does the crane not have adjustments screws which make the arm go left or right instead of doing this with the hand ? Nobody thought about it or what ?

@diegobarquero7222 6 лет назад

Hi, I have trouble balancing my Zhiyun Crane 2. I have a Sony A7SII with a 50mm Zeiss Lens. I would like to know if there is a reason I can't balance my gimbal, and if there is a solution to this problem. Thank You

@MomentumProductions1992 6 лет назад

Hey Diego, have you seen all of my balancing videos?

@MattWhittingham 6 лет назад

thx super useful

@kennethdelarosa7505 6 лет назад

Question sir, a7riii and 16-35f2.8gm combo can the zhiyun crane plus balance it? ..using a rig cage to compensate the weight of the lens? Thanks sir’

@MomentumProductions1992 6 лет назад

Yes, the Crane Plus will support that weight.

What is the sensor setting for 5d mark 4 .zhiyun crane 2

@MomentumProductions1992 6 лет назад

Regarding weight?

@darryljames7436 6 лет назад

QUESTION! Have you tried to balance the camera without the cage? I notice everytime I try to balance my sony a7sii when tightening the base plate its always hitting the bottom of my camera. Is this normal?

@TureaFilms 9 месяцев назад

Same. Did you find the solution? It’s always scratches my Dslr body.

How to balance 75 to 300 mm on zhiyun crane 2

@masonnguyenbook 6 лет назад

I have a problem about balancing my Zhiyun Crane 2 and Sony a6300 kit lens The camera seems quite light with the gimbal and I can't balance (tiny shaky). Do you know how to solve that problem? Please :( Thank you so much

@haohoang896 6 лет назад

Mason Nguyen having a same problem here :(

@bebaq-bhaveshkakkar 5 лет назад

It just doesn't get balanced with kit lens or sigma 30mm-1.4 on sony6300. If you have figured it out please help ? Can't get the tilt axis in balance even after hours.

@etfilms9386 6 лет назад

The lens cap not removed while balancing rokinon 14mm..

@MomentumProductions1992 6 лет назад

Yes, I said why in the video... did you miss that?

@etfilms9386 6 лет назад

Momentum Productions :I did check it.. but balancing for a particular lens would be of apt without a lens cap for that particular lens.. rather than saying incase of heavy lenses.. anyways in the same video,u balancing for a heavy lens 70-200 too.. y I'm mentioning is that, in case of Ronin there are loads of Videos to balance but none with a follow Focus on..(incase of heavy follow Focus like pdmovie)..
