- The FeiyuTech Scorp 2 might just be my new favorite "hybrid" gimbal for heavier iPhone setups or mirrorless camera rigs - and it has hardware-based AI tracking.

Can you use the record button on the gimbal handle? Or do you still have to use the touchscreen/volume. Can’t find any gimbal with a high payload that does this
Thank you Blake, your videos are always so helpful.
Thanks for watching!
Would love to hear your thoughts on using the DJI RS 3 Mini with a smartphone. I’m using a Hohem iSteady M6 and finding it struggles with a larger phone with lenses + ND filter. The plastic arms tend to flex while walking creating springy bouncy like footage. It’s fine without the lenses though.
I’ve not used one, but familiar with it. It’s got a little less payload than this Scorp 2 and is the traditional upright design. I think it lets you quickly go into vertical shooting mode, and the Scorp doesn’t. The Scorp has the built-in AI tracker, which is great and it’s very easy to use. I own both brands and so in the end it’s subjective and DJI are very solid, but I personally like this Scorp 2 a lot and it offers more and holds more. But you really can’t go wrong with either.
Great Review Sir.
You are the man thank you!
Thank you for the review. Do you think it could works for shooting vertical with the beastgrip side handle and beastgrip 0.75x lens and filter ? I can do it on the RS3 with pro max 11.
The weight would be no problem at all, the only thing that might be tricky is those type of setups can get top-heavy and so balancing it might be challenging. Might need to use a counterweight, but again it can definitely handle the payload.
Hey. Great video!
I wonder if you could help advise me. I have a question that I’m curious about.
I’m using the iPhone 14 Pro with the Anamorphic Moment 1.33 Lens, with the VND Filter and Cinebloom 10%, and have recently purchased the Moment Pro Tripod Landscape MagSafe Mount, which is compatible with tripods, I was wondering if it would be the correct addition for the Gimbal or if I would require a cage?
I already have the MOVI Freefly but it requires counterweights (which I now unable to purchase due to being sold out). I was wondering if you could clarify what I might need.
Many thanks in advance!
With that set up I would probably recommend a cage or at very least a more secure mounting system. Whenever I’m adding filters to lenses I don’t really trust the MagSafe setups. They’ll hold it, but if you bump it or turn too fast it can fall off. I mainly use those in static shooting situations with minimal gear attached. So long story short, yeah I would recommend a cage. The one I use this video is a good universal one from Beastgrip and there’s a link in the description if you’re interested.
Hi, could you make a video with a phone recording vertically?
I also use this gimbal with my phone due to the weight of some of the lenses i use for freewell but unfortunately I found out the shutter button is not compatible with phones so i use an external one separately. If anyone has found a way to get the shutter button to work on an iPhone please lmk!
Love your review on this, I use iPhone 15 pro max with a small rib cage. When I looked on the scope 2 website it says it’s not compatible with phones where as the mini is. But I think I prefer this one so I’m a bit confused can I attach my iPhone to this out of the box ?
I’m guessing they just mean from a remote control point of view? Otherwise really any gimbal is compatible with any camera. The only thing I would say is adding a little bit of weight with the cage is preferable. And actually the heavier duty gimbals are what I prefer. A lot of those companies don’t realize or understand the accessories we can now add like lenses cages, etc. But yeah, this is a great gimbal.
@@iphoneographers thanks for your info I’m now leaning towards the mini as I primarily shoot on the iPhone
Thank you. I just wanted to order it and then at the last moment I saw that it was incompatible with the phone, and I need it for a camera with a lens that is heavy, and I also need it for a phone. The mini model does not support heavy cameras. Good thing I saw this video because you proved that it can be used with a phone.
I also had the same thought but i bought it and without any effort i was capable to mount the phone and balance it, as I'm using it I can tell you it's one of the best gimbals that I've used.
@@jacermtir1214 how were you able to use your phone ? Did you get a rig for it or ?
@Twixstah actually, it wasn't a big hustle, just a phone mount that has a screw on the bottom to attach to the gimbal plate and that's all! After using it, I must say that a phone rig should do better for shooting with accessories, but I haven't got one yet.
@@jacermtir1214 oh nice. Do you think you might have a link to that phone mount ?
@Twixstah i had it already on me, but it's not that hard to find ! Even on aliexpress, there are tons of phone mounts to choose from for less than 5$
Hello sir I m from Islamabad Pakistan please this gimbel name and model?
Can you remote pan and tilt using the app on a secondary smartphone?
Sure. You’d just connect that second phone to the gimbal via Bluetooth.
Is the Scorp 2 a newer version of the Scorp-C with AI tracking?
Seems like it.
What about mounting an ssd to the setup? Will it cope?
For sure, no problem. Just gotta figure out where to put it…
Your videos make me 😊
What will be the cheaper alternative of beastgrip pro? Almost 40% of scorp 2 price 😅
There are other cages specifically designed for certain models that you can look at… ruclips.net/video/YJR5IO-hUrU/видео.htmlsi=1w8dfNDDSTaJXCRJ
I bought this gimbal but can you tell me which cage is best for s22 ultra please
I don’t have that phone, but the one I’m using in this video is universal the Beastgrip Pro and I like it a lot for a variety of different phones. amzn.to/3xpdkYG
Hi blake can you shoot vertical using the scorp 2?
I haven’t done that, but yes you can just mount the phone that way, but you can’t auto switch it like you can with smartphone only gimbals.
@@iphoneographers thanks for the reply!
Seeing as how they're competitors on price, the obvious question is how the Scorp 2 compares to the DJI RS 3 Mini.
Yeah good question, the Scorp 2 holds more weight and I just really like its design better than the traditional upright gimbals, but that’s a subjective call - and then the Scorp 2 has the great built-in AI tracker. It’s really offers a lot at a competitive price.
I think for demo purposes this iphone and cage rig was TOO light and stripped down still - on mine I would probably have an additional lens with ND filter, a microphone setup, maybe even a additional battery and media storage external to the phone itself
For sure, you can put all that on there. But using a cage and a lens like I showed here with a lot of gimbals it’s too top-heavy and will not work or barely support it.
Just bought this today. With lenses, even the smooth 5S could not balance my iPhone 15 pro max.
Yeah, this one will have no problem.
