  • It will hold your fully built rig!
Model: A-CR107P-EU
Packaged well, lightning fast shipping, the product arrived with the instructions on how to set the gimbal up. I would definitely recommend setting a entire weekend aside to get comfortable with it. Setup for me took some time, getting my camera on it, balancing, and calibrating the gimbal. On top of charging all the battery and installing the accessories that comes with it. The amount of features and settings Zhiyun has put into this product is nothing short of amazing. The gimbal can without a doubt hold and support my entire rig on it! Smooth and beautiful shots! From the test run that I did get shots on. Being fit is a honest recommendation because my rig isn't light and putting it on a gimbal doesn't make it lighter. Zhiyun came through with this with affordability. Equipment used: SONY A7S III w 24-70mm G master, smallrig rhino cage w/ top handle and side grip. Saramonic shotgun mic, feel world 4k monitor, and VB155 V mount battery. That's some weight and long story short. This gimbal holds it with no problem. ... show more

  • Works with Sony Fx 6 with the top handle and mic no problem.
Model: Standard
Overall great gimbal. This bad boy can fit any setup you throw at it. For cinema cameras make sure you add on the extension arm. When you add that you can fit v-mount batteries or anything your heart desires. The only con is it's very bulky and heavy if you use it by itself you will fatigue pretty fast so attach it to a ring, or vest setup so you can hold it for longer video shoots. ... show more

  • Tricky to setup for BMPCC 4k due to it's shape, but once figured out works great!
Model: A-CR107P-EU
The media could not be loaded. So first off I have to say this is probably one of the best Gimbals in the market right now but you really need to get the pro version or at least the smart sling handle to get the full squeeze out of it, as having controls by your thub is far better than trying to slap the buttons on the side while operating because you cant really see them. Secondly it works solidly right out of the box for most cameras BUT you have to have a decently heavy camera rig. If you have too light of a package it over compensates and has micro jitters so you probably want at least something close to 6 - 7 pounds to put on it. Third if you happen to use an oddly shaped and wide camera that distributes its weight somewhat unevenly like the Black Magic 4k, then you cant use a full cage on it because it makes you extend the arm all the way out, and then the cameras already uneven weight throws it out of wack. To keep it tighter and create the center of balance you'll want to use a half cage if you use the BMPCC4k. ... show more

  • What a great product!
Model: A-CR107P-EU
I'm not a first time gimbal user. However...I am a first time Zhiyun gimbal user. I just received my 3S today, and what can I say? The setup was fairly straightforward. I would definitely suggest reading the instructions and watching a few YouTube instructional videos prior to attempting it, though, especially if you've never handled one of these before. The first thing I did was update the firmware. Hooked it up to my desktop and it updated flawlessly! Then I threw on my Canon Eos R and got it balanced. I especially like the locks on this unit. They make the balance and setup way easier than some other brands out there. Then I turned the unit on and put it through the paces. Up, down, all around. Fast movements, wide swings; I threw everything at it. I'm not gonna lie; at first I had some slight wobble from a few lower angles. Sat it down, fine tuned the balance and the wobbles disappeared, even with some pretty aggressive swings! So, my advice is to be patient and take your time on the initial set up! The phone app is a little tricky. I had some difficulty keeping the connection (however, this may be because of my phone....I'll have to do some more testing on that to see...). All in all I'm very impressed. I do want to say, however, that I'm most impressed with the customer service I received from Zhiyun. They checked in on me right out of the gate to make sure I was satisfied with the gimbal. This company went out of their way to make sure they had a satisfied customer. And they do. I'll say this.....I am now a Zhiyun guy! Between the sturdy equipment and the stellar customer service I'll be buying from them again! I'll update this review as I go...maybe throw on some videos of it in action, as well as keep you informed of the features as I check them out. But, I'm pretty confident I'm going to remain pretty satisfied! ... show more

  • Very strong motors and reliable steady movement
Model: Standard
I have a bmpcc 6k pro with a cage and nato side handle grip (mainly because sometimes i want to go handheld quickly without completely changing my set up. The fact that this is one of the few gimbals that has enough space and can take enough weight makes it perfect. Now is it a gimble you hold with two hand? no lol but its still reasonable if you dont mind a little extra weight for convenience. ... show more

  • Bad build quality, terrible software, horrific integration. Do not buy this product.
Model: A-CR107P-EU
It quite simply isn't super stable, I've had problems with it from day one with my BMPCC6k. I quite simply expect better from such a pricey device, even when balanced correctly and not getting shakes, this gimbal just does not do a good job of eliminating most shakes. Also my battery pack has already broken, the image transmitter is terrible. It just isn't worth it. Shame on you zhiyun. ... show more

  • Nice Crane !!!
Model: Standard
Very Nice Crane. Works just as intended. I did however return it. Not because it didn't work great... because it did indeed work terrific... But I decided to Buy the Newer Model, The ZHYIUN Crane 4. Which is a bit more expensive. So if you want something slightly cheaper than the Crane 4. The Crane 3S is for you. Don't hesitate. It will get you the results you are looking for. ... show more
