Every time i’m holding something that’s remotely close to the shape of a microphone, I have to say “microphone check” into it.
i've been in film and video for just under 30 years, always looking to learn more. Your videos are some of the best thought out and laid out I've ever seen. What a great combination of supporting shots with excellent explanations. I learn something new every time I watch you. Nice Job. Joe
you guys inspire me so much with your film school jargon teaching me how to get my own thumb out of my behind and get a clue on filming. so grateful to you two gentle Canadian souls for sharing such profound knowledge. Thanks.
It wouldn't be B&C video if there weren't bloopers at the end! You guys are my favorite people on RUclips, so relatable and hilarious. Love it!
Just a perfect review and answered soooooo many questions I had especially using my iPhone 13 pro max, great job you two!
I love it every time a product is released all the videos go up and then I'm reminded a month later when you guys review it
Great cinematic clip and narratage! I haven't imagined mobile filmmaking could be done in such a remarkable way. I can't wait to buy my own CRANE M3 since it is so compact and no sweat to carry both camera and smartphone.
I love the black and white aesthetics of the studio , including the white crane , black camera and of course colour Co-ordinated Becki and Chris
I’ve been shoot my videos on an iPhone 11 coupled with a Zhiyun Smooth 4 and have gotten amazing results. Great video you two! 😊
This was SO good. The video turned out amazing. Love the swooping gimbal shots. Totally epic.
Fantastic video illustrating the outstanding professional looking shots you can get with this small gimbal. I have been looking for a small gimbal and this helped me decide on the Crane M3 as my choice. Thanks to both of you for sharing this experience.
I am not that interested in cameras and all but I still watch these videos because of these two. They are super cool and great together.
I say to right equipment plus the right editing = perfect short film and I wish I have ...tnx guys
Great review of the Zhiyun Crane M3 and quite an informative video as usual.
Every single time I watch you guys I always wonder “they’re so compatible and match so well with each other, I wonder if they even argue at all” 😂
I just found this channel and I am super happy. You guys are funny and informative. Thank You
oh my gosh the results are stunning, y'all are so dang good!
Thanks Alex!
If this holds an iPhone in a beastcage with lenses and filters, I’m sold
Wow this is great thanks. The footage and shots look great.👍
Loved this!!! When Becki was in the leaves it gave like a euphoric avatar kinda video, but watching your videos for awhile now this phone video still blends in nicely with your style! 👌🏾
Mint content, as always!
Loved the behind the scenes kind of video!
found this video and this channel yesterday and ive become addicted
Thanks again for your video! I have this gimbal along with using the Beastcam App in which you can either leave the 13 pro max stabilization on or off. Question if you don't mind; Have you found it better to leave it on or off? Thanks again... Great job you two!
You perfectly colorgraded the clips❤️
I've owned all iterations of Zhiyun M except the last one (as well as few other Zhiyun and Ronin gimbals), and M3 genuinely looks great. M2 was good but it seems like M3 is something I want to own even though I don't need to run gimbal with a phone because I use C70 on RS2. Also - glad you included bloopers!
Thanks for the video.
I have been using DJI OM6 for vlogging for my kid but was not really holding heavy lenses and filter setting.
That is why I got Crane M3 for heavy phone setting which is about 400 to 500g which will allow u to use gimbal compare to OM6.
I really love it.
OM 6 only for face tracking indoor LOL
Super content as usual. Do you guys think this guy would fit a Sony zv e10 ?
“And chips.” Lol. Awesome vid you two and love the short film. I often overthink my videos and then talk myself out of it. I need to get better at not doing that. Thanks for showing shit can be done, if that makes sense.
Yes, Star Wars IS a Christmas movie.
So is back to the future
The Ewok Christmas special must be included the trilogy to count Star Wars as a Christmas movie!
Man my experience with my iPhone 13 pro has been amazing , apart from a bit loss of pro video mode as it were in samsung , i love it too
but love macro modes
Great video! Are there any iPhone apps that can work with this gimbal so I can use one of the levers to zoom in and out while I'm recording using my iPhone 12 Pro Max? Thank you for whatever info you can provide.
What is the background at 0:11 made from? Really like the texture and look.
So perfect y’all reflected on Vancouver shooting in this video. I just started on the first season of the vlog on Thursday . Just finished the episode where Chris got called a nerd for saying Siri’s directions were protracted
Really sick video 🔥🔥🔥
Very nice video What was the 3rd app you used with the iPhone? Has FiLMiC released the update that enables us to use with both?
That Camera strap at the 10 minute mark is FIRE! 😉👌
Honestly, it's nice to hear a gimbal *may* be needed on shoots. A lot of RUclipsrs tell you to do everything handheld and it can be very difficult for client shoots that are short on time or have to 100% nail it. Definitely might pick this up! Also iPhone + gimbal for helicopter/airplane
Superb you two and funny😀One question…is it possible to remote from M2 the App Filmic Pro? or iPhone App? like the Smooth 5 can do? Best regards from Germany, Kalle😘
It would be amazing if you guys could make a video covering using your iPhone to make real estate videos, I only have the iPhone 13 base version, are the cameras much different from the base, pro and pro max?
Beck, you might not be a good storyboard drawer, 😂, but Chris is definitely a top-notch gimbal operator. Enjoyed the video a lot. The most entertaining video I've seen so far on crane-m3😍
I love that park. It's been a little while, need to go there again.
The drawings were very funny. I needed that laugh as I am sitting here trying to plan my classes to teach. Great Content. I want to get that Gimbal.
Im new to all this, can you shoot with the front facing camera on an iphone vlogging style or is the gimball arm in the shot?
Where can I get hold of a quick release plate for a Sony ZV1 to use on the Crane M3...?? Thanks
Nice rundown, as expected. 💪 👍 🥂
🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thank you for sharing! It appears that you balanced the iPhone 13 Pro without any issues.
I just received M3 for my iPhone 13 Pro Max and can't balance the Forward / Backward axis at all. I updated to firmware v1.76 before I began the balancing process. I followed several video's for balancing which all were consistant with the balancing procedure. I tried three different clamps with just a PolarPro case on with and without the VND filter and with the camera on the top and flipped to the bottom like yours. Clamps used were; Simple light weight spring loaded clamp, PolarPro Lightchaser w/ thumb remote and a lockable aluminum one. Using the PolarPro and aluminum clamps, the iPhone was off by approx. 70% due to falling backward. Balancing was best with the light plastic one (mine looks to be lighter than yours at 4:00 but, still off by at least 25%. I moved on to the other axis adjustments and performed auto calibration with each one being successful which surprised me. With the heavier clamps the balance meters showed the Tilt / Back being in the red but, close to yellow. With the simple spring loaded plastic clamp, it was about 2/3's blue. I'd like to add, the axis motor was getting warm. As you know the weight of the iPhone is behind the center of the base therefore, gravity takes over. I believe using counterweights would have to be close to the same as the iPhone. A better solution would be an adjustable and/or offset plate centering the iPhone in line with the arm instead of behind it. I've been trying to find something like this but so far, no luck. On the other hand, maybe it's my gimbal since yours worked out but, balancing it wouldn't be any different from one to another. Very frustrating to say the least..... 🤔🤔 Thanks again for sharing, you two did an awesome job! 👍
How did you solve that problem? I have the same now with 13pro.
Were you able to control any of the iPhone's native camera apple settings from the M 3?
Did you have the Bluetooth module? If yes did you test it and if so could it control any of the native camera settings?
So good, and yes, HILARIOUS 😂
I have Zhiyun crane 2.
Is it properly I upgrade gear? Instead, I already get the functionality in zhiyun crane 2.
If upgrading any recommended stabilizer for either mirrorless and DSLR?
I was able to balance my a7c with Tamron 17-28mm, would say that is it’s absolute max. And also say there is no sense in getting it just for a phone, considering there are more affordable options for that, or for the price of the M3 you could just get a DJI Pocket 2, which has similar or better image than most phones.
I thought your video turned out great! Its amazing what you can do with some video skills, iPhone 13 Pro and a affordable gimbal. Awesome video, and thanks for sharing.
I have been using Dji om5 together with my iPhone 13 pro max for shoots. I find it hard to get stabilised shots, wondering if upgrading to m3 would give me better stabilisation? Any advise around here?
Great video always! I’ve always been a DJI gimbal user, and needing to upgrade soon. Have you used DJI’s gimbals enough to compare DJI vs zhiyun?
Thanks dude! I’ve never used DJI gimbals, always been a Zhiyun user!
I love the look of your video. Just purchased your iphone LUTS!!!
Hello guys! After this video I’ve been willing to buy the crane m3 but couldn’t find info on precisely what is the workflow with iphone? Which app do you use? They say it doesn’t have integration with the filmic pro
What is connectivity with iphone? Can I use it for controlling zoom?
I just came across your video. I just purchased an iPhone 14 and this is inspiring for Not using a 3rd party app. Can you show your color grading process?
Can you control the gimbal from an iPhone to remotely pan/tilt/roll? You didn’t mention it. Thanks!
I am looking at the M3 for my Canon SL1 and eventually an SL3. They are much smaller, much lighter cameras that would be ideal for this setup.
Did you have to buy the clamp holding the phone separately or is it included with the M3
Did the iphone mount clamp come with this gimbal?
Loved this video and the short film! Would you upload the short film as a standalone video in your channel?
Just found your videos by accident. Excellent footage. Where did you get the storyboard notebook? I need one for sure. Tired of drawing my own boxes…lol. Looking forward to watching your other vids. Cheers
Fantastic video, you two. I’ve watched a few videos on this product and this was the first that made me consider buying. I do wonder for a phone if say the Osmo Mobile gimbal is comparable and at only $159. I do see that this gimbal can hold the Sony A7C. Again thanks for creating these videos, just watching this gave me multiple ideas. Now I just want to learn how to color grade like Becki!
how did you achieve the correct shutter speed for natural blur with the native app?
Hello I have a question will I still be able to connect a small rode video mic to my iPhone while my phone is connected to the crane m3 ?
Bummer the trails were closed, glad you were still able get the short film together! Hopefully not too off topic, if someone handed you a ZVE10 would you use that instead of your a6400?
I know we were so sad, have to go next time! That’s a good question, I haven’t used it so hard for me to say but I’ve heard good things. I’ve been happy with the 6400 and I know it like the back of my hand but I’ve been thinking of upgrading it to the 6600 just for the batteries.
I love the final product! I didn't even realize the flaws until y'all pointed them out. This should definitely be an apple commercial. P.S. It's a mini storm trooper. the red accent is the laser from it's blaster
that Gimbal looks amazing, but will it control your phone's camera features?
Hi Becki & Chris, Could you tell me about 3rd party app that you used?
You have a voice over style like Peter Mckinnon🙂. The short film you made with this budget setup is awesome. Cheers!
Hi. I bought one crane m3 yesterday and it has a6000 camera, But I'm having trouble with camera and gimbal cable connection. When I connect the camera with a cable, the message "Check the connected device " appears on the screen.. how can i fix this problem?
Do you guys sell that story board pad or affiliate it?
Beautiful video. Geezzz.....The colors are so good and I just love how the beginning video matches the gimbal. *CHEFS KISS*
I wonder what the conditions were that caused the first trail to be closed??
Thanks so much!! I think it was icing, it’s quite wet down there and it was cold so likely super slippery. After looking closer at the state park website (info wasn’t on Google maps) it said it was closed for the winter.
@@BeckiandChris thank you thank you. Icing is not to be messed with. On cake or on the path. 🎂😂Awesome work once again
Hi! How do you make your camera stick to your bag on your shoulders?
I have a Sony A7C with a 20mm prime. would it work good for that?
Hey guys, great video. If you edit in FCp-x you can change the dept of fields from the cinematic take you made.. in post…
Beccki! good morning, Thanks~ really amazing channel.
🙏🏼🙏🏼
😳 this is so helpful i kinda like the m3 combo with this iPhone.. but I’m still hesitating.. sony a7c kinda good in shooting a video..
Great vid, thiking of buying this one as I want an all in one for my iphone and my sony a6500.
Did you buy it? How is it?
Hi, will the crane m3 stabilise with other phone mounts? I am trying with the joby griptight pro and am struggling
Loved the video. May want to cover the hot shoe mount while in the rain. May damage the camera if water gets inside, keep up the great content.
Oh so white! I can’t wait to get this!
will the m3 work with action gopro10 camera?
what was the third party app you used to get your iphone to work with your crane m3?
I have the crane 3m too for my zv1 and now for the iPhone 14 pro max too 😂👍🏻
Current phones have become very good content creation tools for most people. I have the previos version of this gimbal and it has been really good for my needs, and this one seems like a very good upgrade.
They have! I remember testing an app on my phone back in 2016 and it was so bad, they’ve come along way! Really impressed with this gimbal!
If this gimbal came out a year ago, i wouldve just go straight to this crane m3 instead of my ronin rsc2. Now i m tempted!!!
the crane m3s doesn't recognize my cell phone, the zy play app was installed on my iphone and the camera doesn't show anything, no connection. what is the solution
Hi guys great video. Where’s the video on how to shoot with Gimbal phone/ full size camera.thank you so much.
So I picked one of these up, but mine didnt come with a phone mount. Link to the mount? also does the mount work with (cough) Vertical Video (cough) for reels and stuff?
Loved the compact set-up and those stunning shots ❤️🔥🔥
What phone mount adapter did you use
...."and chips" ... that wins or me. Great Video.
As an FYI - you can shoot Log V3 on an iPhone using the Filmic Pro app.... but not in ProRes (yet...)
Who was holding the gimbal for the helicopter sample clip? 🙃
Do you have a video focused on what each shot of a seven shot sequence is?
This outlines it all ruclips.net/video/VTOC-cLsGA8/видео.html 😊
what is the app you mention to shoot in?
I like this new gimbal M3 . For me I use the equipment I already have at home , My old Zhiyun Crane 2 . With my new iPhone 13 Pro Max on it . I had to add 400 grams of weight because the minimum payload is 500 grams , yes it's heavy but it work . And because of that I'm really interested to change for the new M3. I make a video about the iPhone 13 Pro Max on a Crane 2
I have a Zhiyun gimbal and I have mono pod that I can fit on the bottom of the gimbal. Think of all the things you could do with mono pod and a gimbal. Ben
