Do YOU even need this gimbal? Hohem iSteady M6
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 июл 2024
- In this video I explore this gimbals features and discuss some outstanding features and try to discover if you actually even need a gimbal for your smartphone.
Smartphone technology seems to be rapidly developing each year and so does the camera and stability. Some new models you can walk with perfectly steady footage without a gimbal. There are many features I talk about that to stand out and you simply cannot achieve without this device.
Let me know your thoughts below.

Great Video Jason. Thanks for the review and insights. Also love your filming!
You've convinced me to get one, cheers for that!
I liked your notes thanks. Just one question though I have Samsung S23 Ultra, will all the features works for android? If you can help me with this please.
Thank men I really appreciate because I'm going to buy hohem isteady m6 but I can't I have galaxy S23 ultra which gimble good for me?please
Any suggestions for a monopod or tripod to simulate crane shots with M6? Thank you
How to use Rode wireless mic go 2 on Hohem m6 ? Plz advice ,Thankx
awesome review, thanks, Jason!
For vertical shooting with Pro Max iPhone and DJI Mic 2 receiver is there enough clearance or better go with Hohem MT2?
Can i switch the front/rear camera while recordig on there apps?
This sa best review ever solid🔥🤘👊thank you for good review👊🤘🔥
Could you help what's the widest phone that will fit cannot find any information on it ,ace video
What if I want it to follow a spreader bar or both a container & spreader bar?
Does it do good with vertical shooting, I do car vids with my phone and having a hard time finding a gimbal that I can shoot creatively in vertical perspective.
Thank you for the video! Btw, what is the range of the tracking?
What if you need to plug hollyland accessory into iphone port? I didnt see spacing to adjust phone to allow you to plug in accessory.
GREAT post 💯‼️ I purchased one yesterday and the AI tracking was my main business case for choosing the Hohem iSteedy 6M
How has it been so far now thay you had it for a couple months?
@mhalonazaro6576 It has been a great buy. It exceeded expectations; I bought it for video, but it is a game changer for shooting still photography with my phone. It's stabilization of my phone allows me to take images that are stunning in detail. I didn't know how much better they are are compared to hand held ones. I've put off upgrading my DSLR to mirrorless 😇💯‼️
i love the vidio it hlep me alot thank
I have a s23 ultra. Will this work with an Urban Armor Gear case?
very nice , thank you
Does this fit the Samsung Fold 4? Thank you!
Wont stay unlocked!!!I'm on my second m6 in a week span with the same issue!! They have an issue with the lock button, it will not stay in the unlocked position. Once it rotates a full 360 it automatically locks back. Any suggestions?
What is the diamater of the handle on the isteady m6?
Perfect 💯
Amazing video!
How is the wind resistance if your hanging out the car to record
I have a problem with my gimbal do you know how to fix the error 03 which .......( "ERROR 03" indicates Overload Anomalies. This happens when the gimbal is not unlocked, not balanced, or when external interference causes motor overload, leading to abnormal operation.
I hope you can help me thank you.
Is there heating problem in it?
How robust it's motor is?
Waiting for a face off between this and the Insta360 Flow. Which is better for tracking and sturdier?
Insta 360 ran home
This one kicks the insta360 in the a$$.
great review
Do they actually ship to Australia? All the products I searched on their site say "AU warehouse not in stock". Be great to know AUD pricing too
The manual says it has a sport mode, but I was not able to find it. I wonder if anyone has had this issue.
Have s23 ultra wanna gimbal like that and its btw DJI Osmo 6 and Hohem M6. which one is more usefull (app support weight of the phone support)?
I have bought them all, i own this. its amazing and works with my z fold 5 and s24 ultra actual camera without the app
I Have a Hohem M6 And an iPhone 15 Pro Max and I want to know how and if I can record video in Pro Res using the Hohem Joy App
Since there doesn’t seem to be a setting
Can I still record in 60fps on an android? I watched another video (you may have mentioned it too) but the app only allows recording in 30fps....but if I used just my s23 ultra to record 60fps will the 360/axis tilt etc still work?
Apparently no bluetooth connection is required so you can use your native camera app and record at whatever your smartphone is capable of
Thank you for this great video! Do you need the ai module to do some motion time lapse?
No, There are a and b points as buttons on the gimbal
How do you get wireless mic audio into the phone. I would want to use my DJI wireless mic. Looks like the lighting port is blocked
because of the adjustable arm you can put the mic on the phone then just slide the phone and mic as far in as you can.
Thank You
steve nailed it
What's the distance it can track you, 50 meters?
Can it track you in a crowd of people like a city, while you cross the street?
This looks alot more fun...
Can we use dji action 4 with m6 ?
I’ve got one and I absolutely love it!
what do you use to film your hands free POV scene videos?
I gotta get this
Looks like a great gimbal! Definitely beefier than my OM 6.
I hope they paid you for all this cinematic yumminess. I have one of these coming to me!
Certainly is a great gimbal!
@@JasonMorrisphotocinema This or Moza aircross s?
can you use it with a cannon g7 x?
Hi Jason, thanks so much for your detailed review. I am now a subscriber. :) I saw you had a large ND filter attached to your phone. I am using the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra and just cannot find an attachable ND filter option large enough to cover all the cameras on the back. Do you have a recommendation?
Freewell sells a case and ND filters for the s23 ultra.
you deserve more than 1M subscribers
I wish my friend!!!!!!!!!
I can charge my phone while using DJI Osmo Mobile 6 while in landscape. Can the Hohem do the same?
Yes.
Does it track objects? And how far can it track? Let's I wanna track an object 200m away from me??
Great video!
Are you able to zoom in and out with the iPhone or other app. I’m trying to film baseball games trying to zoom in on the action I use the app called GameChanger that streams live the people that aren’t able to make it to the games, parents grandpa’s, etc..
How useful is this for photography and long zoom?
Can you get the AI tracking to work and track a person without the hand gestures? Thinking about it for videoing my son whilst playing football
Thank you so much for sharing this video. For Samsung Galaxy s23 Ultra Which gimbal stabilizer would you recommend me.
the new Hohem Isteady M6 is great
Adding to the 23 ultra inquiry, will this work with a case on it?
Following
@Brian j did you end up getting one? I really want one and I have the same phone as you.
@@brianj9262 yep no issue
For the AI follow feature:
1. Does it track objects other than people?
2. When not using the Hohem app, is there a way to get it track without the person giving the "okay" sign? I'd like to use that feature to assist keeping subjects (mostly my kids) in the frame while filming, but don't want them to have to give the "okay" sign for it do so.
3. How well does the AI tracking feature work compared to other competitor gimbals?
What tripod are you using there with the gimbal? Time stamp 2:10
I believe it’s a Sirui Superb Traveller 224 Carbon Fibre Tripod
Fantastic no bloat review. Thanks mate
Just used your discount code to buy. Thanks for the solid discount
however, one of its downside is it's not recommended for sports videography since there are so many objects that the sensor detects.
I just bought one- It dtime to understand this- its my first gimbal.
Should I buy two year assurion ins when buying this Hohem m6 gimbal? I see a lot of unhappy customers on Amazon about this over heats and the motor gets loud. Anyone please advise? Thank you
Smart phone software stabilization crops in. A benefit to a gimbal is the ability to film closer to a subject without losing stabilization, especially when using lenses without the hardware stablization that some smartphone lenses have.
Does AI tracker can track while in video calls?
if you are wearing a helmet can it still track you?
When I use the ok symbol it cuts off the head. Any idea y?
ok with your face
What tripod are you using in 2:10 part of the video?
Looks like a Sirui.
Sadly the AI component hasn't been available for quite some time in the UK now. Unavailability is such a sad reason for me not getting this gimbal.... especially since I need one urgently and really like this one
Why is that?
Where can you buy the remote for this? Can you share the link? Awesome video!
Bro, phone stabilization is good but they crop alot also, or it almost not work well in 4k. You can ninja walk everytime in travelling. So I think gimble is still need even you just need the stabe video
The biggest problem with smartphones is battery life especially when shooting outside. I like the Insta 360 for tracking and motion Timelapse. This does look cool I just know my phone battery becomes the issue.
An upside with this gimbal is you can charge your phone through the gimbal
@@JasonMorrisphotocinema any recommendations for additional add on lens like motion filter
Why is this gimbal mentioned more for use with phones not cameras? I have a DJI Act4 . Thx!
What if u wanna track a car is that possible too ?
Can I use the DJI mic with it?
yes i tried with mine.
@@KhmaiMedia how did you manage to setup the receiver? It doesn’t look like it had clearance for the cable due to the gimbal being almost flush to the phone
@@TheCrosx731 so i was using it with my iphone and what i do first is put the reciever in the lightning port jack and then put in in the gimbal---pushed the phone against the gimbal.. it worked fine.. i don't know what phone you have but i used my iphone 14 Pro....it may seem heavy but what i do is hold the phone and then turn the gimbal on and it handled well. hope that all makes sense lol
YT10 code doesn’t seem to work (in Canada)????
now is 15%off, limited time
Nice video and enjoyed your emphasis of the AI sensor. Its crazy good! I mildly disagree with you about the stabilization. It's better than my Smooth 5 and DJI and better by a bit than iphone 13 pro stabilization.
It's time to sell the Smooth 5, as this is better in every way. It's totally worth it.
Oh no I do agree. I just meant stability is becoming crazy good these days and gimbals need other features to grab peoples attention like the AI feature.
thanks for the heads up.
Great review!
Just starting my RUclips / Podcast, and I’ve been researching for something like this. I’m definitely getting this!
RESPECT! ✊🏾
Thanks, verry good video and your quality of picture is wowww, I have iphone 15 pro max pounds is 240G and I like to record with apple pro rec vlog and I need to use ssd, I use t7 samsung 80g. the total pounds is 320 , I try osmo 6 and insta 360 flow and all gimble is good for around 295g. When I use that gimble all gimble put the gimble off to much pounds. That product M6 is better because is 400g and the system for axelle is different. I just buy today (with your video I see) :) and I hope to try. Thanks again
Yeah, sounds better. But I can't see where you could put the SSD with this gimbal. Do you have some advice for the setting? Thanks
Gimbal is particularly useful if you need external microphone n light. Everyone knows video quality on phones is not issue, but voice recordings for more cinematic experience you'd need an external microphone ideally attached on it
The downside to this gimbal is, it doesn’t have a lot of room for an external mic. Speaking strictly as an iPhone user (filming in portrait mode), I find it problematic to use an external (plug-in) mic. You need to buy a right angle mic adapter. If you don’t have the right angle adapter, it will not fit in portrait mode. What I mean by not fitting is you will not be able to swing the gimbal because the adapter will hit the back arm of the device. Of course you can hit the trigger button four times for it to swing the arm to the front of the phone. It would also be nice if they included a selfie stick within the gimbal handle and while we’re here a magnetic holder like the DJI instead of the spring phone clamp.
@carolinek220 I've got Samsung galaxy s22 ultra n can attach pro mic n led light with no issues, and the gimle original light is still on it. So it probably depends on the size of the mic
@@markp8686 Which pro mic and led light are you using on the s22 ultra ? and are you still using it ? i have the same phone and am looking for what gear i can add to it ! thnx
is it mandatory to buy the ai tracking with it,cuz u have the option to skip it and buy the gimbal only
Guess it depends on if you want the ai tracking or not.
Will i be able to film something thats lying flat on the table?
Does AI tracker can follow animals or other appointed objects?
Bought it and I love it.
Is Ai works on FaceTime
It may even be that smartphones have good stabilization, but not every smartphone does, a common mistake that every iPhone user makes, it's normal, I don't blame you, mine doesn't have OIS and many flagships don't either, like the Poco X4 GT, it surpasses the Iphone in video quality since Android has a third-party app (exclusive to Android) that allows you to record unprocessed video (more than 2000 Mbps of video bitrate and full RAW resolution of the sensor, in the case of the Poco x4 GT a resolution of 4,624x3.472 pixels), virtually the same quality as ProResRAW and native aspect ratio of IMAX
Game changer up to 10 feet
Will it handle the weight of a iPhone 14 pro max
it should, my 13 pro max with slim phone case is around 305g. w/o case about 250g.
Yes it does and the clip is big enough to hold the phone firmly in a thicker case.
this or Insta360 FLOW
Same i need ans for
@@jdnaveen321 this one...
Does the hohem m6 app have ai tracking if i dont have the ai sensor?
Sponsored?..I see a referral link
You have to change it in a portrait mode yourself
When will gimbals add a mic port that can have wireless mic rx units added without adding extra weight to the phone? Magnetically, wirelessly? It’s 2024,,, come on high tech, figure that out
Just got this today. The Ai tracking is terrible. Works one out of every 20 times, even in bright light, with front or back camera, in Hohem or default camera app. Tried resetting app, resetting Ai tracking, rebooting gimbal, turning and switching off-on Ai module. Occasionally it works then, two seconds later, it just can’t be bothered. The gimbal is nice and steady with some nice novelty features. But ‘intelligent’ it ain’t, at least the one I got
Mine works fine and tracks really well, especially if you set the gimbal to sport mode. Maybe you got a duff sensor.
@@NoizeLabUK yes, thought I’d updated my comment since. Sent the unit and sensor for a replacement which works brilliantly. Hugely impressed with this as a gimbal, even without the sensor. Hohem have come on in leaps and bounds, and their latest mirrorless gimbal, using the same Ai sensor, looks very attractive too.
@@PoetryFilms I’ve been really impressed with it. Admittedly I haven’t used it prolifically yet but over the next six weeks I’ve got a big project on which will see it getting heavy use daily. I’m looking forward to a semi-baptism by fire. Glad you got yours sorted. Enjoy!
Man great video BUT you say the word “literally” WAY TO MUCH………LITERALLY
I scrolled down and looked for comments to see if it’s just me already at 0:52 lmao
Litchrally
"ACTUALLY" 😊
Especially since it is used incorrectly each and every time....literally.
That's actually literally true
I got to say, this gimbal looks promising. I've been using the DJI OM4 for a couple of years now and I use moment lenses, which is annoying with the control arm getting in the shot. I do like that you don't need to use any apps since till this day DJI's app is still laggy when trying to connect my OM4 to use any of the tracking features. Thanks for the review and it will be in my list to get in the near future!
So, I assume you get paid extra for each time you say “literally?”
Other than that, it was literally a very good video 😅
hahaha....great video, but I think he may have set a record.
LITERALLY
We can’t afford that 😢😢
litterally
Literally...
i bought this gimbal for 165 EUR
Totally Disagree with you! I just bought this Gimbal!!!
go on.... say 'actually' again.....
