This is the best tutorial for this gimbal! I purchased one (can't remember which one!) last year and it was so complicated to set up! I returned it and gave up on a gimbal. Until yesterday. I ordered one and found your tutorial. I'm all set and now ready to practice! Thanks so much! I'm sure I will watch this over and over again!
@@Jason_Hermann I'm trying to connect my Canon m50 mark 2 Bluetooth connection to this gimbal. I have searched for instructions online but no luck finding help! Can you tell me how to connect this gimbal to my m50 via Bluetooth? T
This still looks way too time-consuming and complicated to me. I heard this gimbal was easier to calibrate but it looks just as tedious and confusing as the others. I'm still waiting for the day when someone creates a gimbal that can electronically calibrate itself based on the camera's weight... which will probably never happen. Thanks for this video, though, I would have bought and gimbal and then had to return it, lol! 😅
Probably the best tutorial for gimbal set up. Thanks a lot..i bought the cinepeer weebill too but was concerned how to set up with my zv-e10 using Bluetooth and this is what I needed
Very useful tutorial: I am about to buy this gimbal and I needed this kind of tutorial to see the process of balancing and working with it. I have now the Canon R6 that doesn't fit my current gimbals (more a question of front heavy lenses and no room to pull back the camera on the gimbal) and this one seems perfect for this camera. At first I was afraid when you set the camera to the right (it being a small camera) but then I see that the balancing is done moving the camera away from the motor, so a bigger camera will still have room for balancing. 20:20 .... the Fallow mode used to be the Follow mode, but now people will use the Fallow mode.
Hi Jason you have a new subscriber here I've been following your channel for a while now, I've been watching videos about the Sony ZV-1, the way you explain all the situations, great tips, I would ask you a favor because I'm a certain age and there are many settings on the Sony ZV1. If I could, in a few words the settings for filming in progress always under the sun on 16/9 to put the video on RU-vid I would appreciate it, if it is not possible no problem I will continue to watch your explanations as an expert. Have a nice day Greetings
Do you have experience, using the gimbal with extra accessories on the camera like camera cage (smallrig), a microphone (JOBY or Rode) and especially an external monitor or iPhone as monitor on top . I am using a Sony ZV-E10 with camera cage + JOBY Mic + Accsoon SeeMo 4k with iPhone. The hole setup weighs about 2.2. up to 2.4 kg, but is "very high". Looking for your answer. Greetings from Germany.
Yeah, that is not going to work very good if I had to guess. I would try and get the monitor mounted to the gimbal handle itself some other way. Some gimbals come with extra mount points where you can put a smallrig arm to hold the monitor for example and other things. You also might be better off removing the cage to save the weight unless you absolutely need it.
They just keep taking baby steps releasing these toys - very recently it was called the Crane M3S, which continued all the same flaws. This latest is no exception: the manufacturing tolerances and fundamental design simply make balancing terrible because of poor friction from even a lightweight mirrorless payload. And the easiest thing for them to fix would be the horizontal balancing at the axis instead of at the plate. Basically, every time you set up and break down, the poorly devised balancing process needs to be repeated. Simply not the case for, e.g., the Ronin RS3 Mini.
@@stevennoble2608 I agree, one can easily get carried away with expensive camera gear, and for what? I'm new at this, and like you said, when new at it you don't tend to notice all the imperfections that maybe paid professionals do... Right now I just want to shoot some cool videos without it seeming like a 'shake and bake' commercial with me holding it in my hands.
Hi Jason, I just bought mh Zhiyun Cinepeer 3E and I watched your tutorial as well. I set it my camera and every time I turn on my gimbal it says Axis Lock. I unlock everything and it keeps saying Axis Lock. For this reason I can not go through all the settings . Please let me know how to unlock Axis gimbal. Thank you.
Hey jay i just bought a a6700, really excited about it and i have spend like couple hours in your channel and it has been very informative. I was wonderding if you have any advice on some free editing programs for video and photos i have used my money on the cameras. What would you recommend
Hi! please help me with something..i hace a Falcam cage...with a f38 quick release system...is there a way to use another baseplate beside the manfrotto that comes with the gimbal? like an arca swiss QR? thanks a lot!
You can put the quick release above the plate, instead of using it with the camera. I used to do it with the weebil s. I’m pretty sure ulanzi sells even the plate with the quick release, but if you already have it you can use the one that you have.
It sounds like you loosened it to much and it came apart which is not good.. You are going to need to fix that or send it back for repair. If you have all the parts, perhaps ask a friend that is good with that stuff to try and put it back together? A mechanic could prolly figure it out if you have all the parts for example.
this is the third video i've watched and I still can't get my camera to stay in position after adjusting the tilt or the rotation. Just using a Lumix S5 and kit lens 20-60mm. Been trying all night and it just wont play ball. Could it be faulty?
@@Jason_Hermann Thanks, I managed to get it set OK, the gimbal modes seem to work OK, although it still wont maintain it's position if i manually tilt or rotate it, it just falls back into a normal level position (powered on or off)
@@KevinMullarkey It should not fall back into position when powered on? That does not sound right to me at all.... Only the first tilt axis should stay at all angles based on my experience. The roll is a bit harder, so you may need to slide the camera left a bit possible.
@@Jason_Hermann OK, managed to get it balanced correctly with a bit of perseverance and micro adjustments. Must also remember to remove the lens cap before balancing as even this slight extra weight throws it out!
Yes, but some features may or may not be available per model as you can check here: zhiyun-website-shenzhen.oss-cn-shenzhen.aliyuncs.com/instruction/20240627/1719456043219-rQ53SB8x.pdf
