This is not the best gimbal as I found defect in manual locks and the zoom is jerky in the two units received so far from Amazon. May be in India the sellers are dumping the rejected pieces from China.
Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video. I'm in the process of creating film projects now, so its important to have the right equipment. (always)
A great review! Thank you for explaining all of its features. I've watched other videos with this same gimbal but they didn't explain it the way you did. Gonna watch your other videos and reviews. 🙌🙌🙌
Those locks are smart, necessary infact. Because till now the few Gimbals I have used (and one I am using), using phone in it is impossibly hard for Photography. And I am someone who switch between video and photos. My two photowalks ruined because of that. So good to see those locks in placed and hopefully will not cause the same troubles.
Your videos are always so simple and easy to understand by novices like me. People like me say "keep it up" . Although i am completely against Apple devices and devices made for the Apple ecosystem and will probably never use one.
Thank you very much for your support and sharing your thoughts 🎬😊📸🎥

Hey Zdenka! Interesting review that makes me buy another gimbal. I have filmed a lot with my smartphone but have had a lot of problems with wind noise when filming outdoors. Today I got home a Röde VideoMic Me and it turned out very well despite strong winds. Unfortunately, the mic does not fit when it is on the camera in my Vimble 2S gimble so I have to take a deep breath and order a Hohem iSteady X. I think you should try a good external mic when filming outdoors with Smartphones.
I just got the Osmo 3 this week and your videos have been extremely helpful. When doing a drone or crane shot move, was is the best shooting mode? And how to control or anticipate the view from start to finish? Thank you again for your work.
Thank you very much for your support and thank you very much for your suggestions. Many answers can be found through all my videos... Enjoy your on your gimbal
Thanks for a great review. I have this gimbal and the Osmo 3. What I like about this one is the ease of use, the simplicity in operation. What I wish it had was 24 frames a second in the video, selection of all the lenses on my Iphone 11 pro max and better exposure control. Hopefully they will upgrade the firmware. But I just throw this in my moment phone sling bag with the camera, lenses, etc.
Hmmm... looks like wishes and regrets? I have 3 iPhones, all purchased for video production. Will an iPhone 11 PRO MAX be limited with this device? (and what is the fascination with 24fps?) I shoot in 4K
Wonderful production, presentation and content. You really go above and beyond. How does the motor do when you have an external lens attached? Is the motor more powerful at the Osmo Mobile 3 and equal to the q2?
Love this review Zdenka :) I was confused on which Gimbal to buy and your video cleared it all. Right away ordered from Amazon. Thanks! and yeah I subscribed too. Have a good day! love from India :)
Hey Zdenka, I love your content! It's really cool that you mentioned all the locking mechanisms that lots of people arent and also the fact that can be used as a self-stick. You know a lot about gimbals, and I kinda have a doubt. When you're walking around and you're done filming for now, is it okay to leave the phone on the gimbal, turn it off and stay in your hand dangling around on the side of your body or this can affect the motors? Because of the fact that you can lock all motors on iSteady X, it makes sense to me since can be used as a selfie stick, which will be less harmful to the gimbal to be dangling. What do you think? Or all gimbals are fine to do that? And also what's your take on motion timelapse on a gimbal so light, especially if it's windy?
Thank you very much for your support. I think they build the gimbals so it can handle stuff like that. When it comes to light wind no problem but I would try that in lots of wind with any gimbal
Hi Zdenka! Thank you for this review! I own a DJI OM3 already (which is currently being repaired) so I thought about getting the hohem isteady as a secondary device. Would you recommend adding this to my gear list?
Oh! And also, can I use this with my Saramonic wireless mic system? I have the transmitterthat attaches to iPhone 11 (not the larger transmitter). Would the weight or functionality work?
Great vídeo ! Do you actually get to make cinemátic vídeo with this gimbal since it's not compatible with filmic pro? Or You Think it's more for a personal use like quick staff Instagram etc
I think this is more for beginners although this is the only gimbal which I can film with using wide angle lens without actually seeing the motor and the shot and I do have a iPhone 11 Pro. 😊🎬📸🎥
"It's like the tease, I like that you can see inside the cover. It makes you wanna rip it apart, get to it and try it out" - I see what you did there. :P
Zdenka, is it compatible with iPhone 12 Pro? I use a GH5, but I am thinking of using an iphone for occasional gimbal shots. I'm a music biz photographer for 4 decades, now also doing videos and live streaming. Thank you for your wonderful videos.
I just purchased the Hohem ISteady and found your video useful and easy to follow. My question why would I need to 24 Frame video… or need to adjust any speed. How does that add to or take away from my picture quality? Thank you;
Please look up basic filmmaking … how to film in different speeds …. And what different frame rates mean… for example this video: ruclips.net/video/Bx1V6PqJZso/видео.html
Something I find lacking in gimball analisys is if the holding mechanism interferes with the power button of the phone. Something you could consider in future analysis
Any information about how the gimbal responds when you attach an external lens? How is the rebalancing? You covered the issue in the moza mx video but not here I believe
My Xenvo wide angle lens exceeded the weight limit and I could not use it ☹️ it would not balance properly.....but I ordered a much lighter lens and hopefully that one works better 🤷🏻♂️
Hi Zdenka, what's the differences between the Hohem isteady x and the isteady mobile plus? Love your videos and have learned a lot from you. Keep them coming. Stay safe. Sky 🇮🇲
Hi Zdenka, How the heck are you? Because of your awesome review of the dji Osmo 3 I bought it. Do you think this gimbal compares or is the dji still the better gimbal.?
How am I doing? All right a bit frustrated at what is going on in the world these days but living my normal life. I will be comparing those 2 gimbals soon. I think DJI might be better but they are very close... it depends if you have Android or Apple . Many greetings back to you 😊🎥🎥📸
thanks for this video ... this help me decide to buy hohem iSteady x.... i also watched your Gymbal comparison videos .. but this one is exactly what im looking for in a gymbal .. cheap, light, pocket sized. .. and yeah i subscribed.
Sorry for asking as i'm new to the field: - I've heard u talking just about gimbals' own apps. Do u mean that these gadgets don't work with the phone's own video/photo app? Not really interested to learn new apps each time I buy a new gimbal... Sort of... Thx for answering. Great video BTW!
Thank you very much Zdenka Darula and great job! Congratulations! I would like to ask you something if possible: with the latest app updates can I finally have access to the ultra wide angle lens of my smartphone? If this is not possible, did you find it difficult to film ultra wide angle through your phone while staying connected to the gimbal? Works well? Thank you so much for your eventual answer!
Hi Zdenka, Loving your advice and reviews. I think I told you I bought this steadycam. Now I bought the Ulanzi anamorphic. Do you have any recommendations for a counterbalance weight? I am thinking of another lens mount to put on the other side of the phone as I cannot see any other system for this gimble.
Very informative as always ... A quick pointer ... The pan tilt and other modes in the gimbal can be managed with a combination of taps on the power and the shutter key.. not super intuitive but it is there 😁... BTW.. please keep up the good work.. I continue to learn a fair few things from your logs.
Hello! Can switching between the gimbal pan modes be done without using the app? Or does this only work when used with the Hohem app opened? Thank you!
Hello Zdenka, between this gimbal and the Aochuan smart xr, which advise? I want to buy a cheap gimbal and I am undecided between these two. Or if you know another one within this price and better, please recommend me. Thanks
Very good video. What's the difference with the X2? It looks the same for me. Can you charge the phone with it? If it can charge the phone, then I will go for it since it's half price compared with the X2.
Very well explained and a detailed vdo on the gimble operation. Being a new RUclipsr this is extremely helpful to me.. Thanks for sharing. Have you made such review for Dji osmo 3? Coz I believe that's the one which has been most popular among all brands
Need a decision. The store was OUT OF STOCK on the DJI Mobile 3 YESTERDAY as I walked in on their reopening day. Is your video a sign I should consider this as a viable choice vs DJI? Comparison of feature by feature will help me make choice.
Cannot wait - ordered the Højen yesterday and will buy the OSMO M3 once the price drops in response to the market’s rebound from C-19. I like the WHITE as one of my iPhones IS white. This gimbal is so light and I believe more of a McConsumer model whereas the purchase of BOTH is completely warranted if you intend to do more than touristy beach shots. DJI3 is no doubt required at the PRO level; +capabilities+
@@ZdenkaDarula Uau, that looks really cool, I just watched your video! But we can't get them in Brasil, my only options are iSteady X, iSteady Mobile+ & the ridiculous expensive DJI OM 4. I never had a gimbal, but I really would like to buy a good one because I don't know when I will get another one. I really wanna chose right, I know there is no right or wrong, but when you have a budget it's important to try! Which of the Hohem would you chose if you could pick only one?
Hi Zdenka! I'm choosing between this and the osmo 3. I can get the osmo 3 combo with the tripod etc for about 115 usd The I smooth x for about 57usd. Ill have to get the isteady x from abroad tho so the warranty is a bit of a question. Which would you suggest between the two? I'm just an amateur phone video shooter using it for some cooking videos and some b rolls on a p20 pro. Thanks!
@@ZdenkaDarula Hi, in your comparison video of the app of 6 gimbals, you have put Hohem isteady x last for android. However, here in the comment, I saw you mentioned, Hohem supports android better than DJI or Zhiyun smooth x. How good is this unit based on your usage with Android? I am planning to use it with Galaxy Note 20 Ultra. Thank you for all the comprehensive videos.
Hi Zdenka. Thank you for a brilliant insight into this gimbal. As a first time gimbal user I am about to order the steady X based on your review. I reckon I can experiment as a a newby for not too much money. Oen question: in the video you mentioned that it is not possible to lock exposure. Is this not a real problem? I noticed in one of your other videos you stated that if exposure is not locked "things can look a little colourful". Is this a big deal or should I just get on with it and experiment with the iSteady? Thanks & Regards Michael
I heard that they are about to come out with new app so it should be all taken care of. I would send them quick email and ask when the new app will be out. 🎥📸🎬😊
Hey Zdenka! I just bought this gimbal and apparently it was given a lot of firmware updates! On my S20 FE ultra wide angle works inside their camera app (quite tricky, not so comfortable to switch between Ultra and wide lens and also tele is not available), 24fps works (no 60fps unfortunately), Pro/Manual settings of ISO, shutter and white balance are better placed.
It’s a good deal for the price.... I’ve still got the DJI Osmo Mobile 1. I am a little concerned about that phone holder... looks a bit cheap to me.....
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. The holder is actually way better then DJI... I dropped a phone from DJI recently. This holds... really strong 😊🎥🎬📸
This is a HUGE plus - after paying $2,250. for my loaded iPhone 11 PRO Max and complete noob to gimbals, the LAST thing I want to see is that device hitting the concrete!!!!! Better grip is best. I checked the weight; phone is 226 grams to this rating of 280. Good news!
10:24 is what I was here for. Looking at the way the gimbal arms are designed, I was skeptical about the advertised 270 degrees tilt on the Hohem website. And my doubt was right. It has a very very limited tilt. And also has very inefficiently set up buttons which cannot be used to change modes.
I love that it fits in a hand bag. I love that it stands on it's own on the table too. I have a question: My phone is without any apps (I keep my phone Internet-free but I sometimes use it to film extra shots), can this be used without the app? And just use my own phone setting for stills and videos?
Hi. Apologies for my ignorance. I heard you say native camera app in the vodeo but I didn't know if that just meant what my phone does already or if that has to be with a downloaded app. Thank you. I'm learning. Been watching more M50 videos today as well. Happy Weekend and thank you. - Ivy
Hi there. Thanks for this informative video. You just got a new subs. I just wanna know which one is better using with iphone 12. The Hohem Isteady X or DJI OM3? Thanks for your answer. Appreciate it.
Thanks for the video! Was just wondering if you could lock the exposure when using inception mode and you answered it at the end. I’ve just bought this and you still can’t lock the exposure from what I can see which is a bit pointless.
Hi I wanna ask which gimbal is suitable for Canon M6 Mark2 (with standard lens) and Canon G7Xmark3..either DJI SC or Zhiyun Crane M2..I wanna buy gimbal for both of my Cameras...Thank u dear.
Great review Zdenka well explained.....I have Hohem isteady pro 2 for my Gopro's and it a brilliant piece of kit and use DJI Osmo mobile 3 for my phone.......stay safe.....thanks for sharing
Hey zdenka! I have been watching your review videos on smartphone gimbles lately. Could you please tell me does honem isteady x2 work on samsung galaxy s22 ultra?
I wish I could ask for this, however, I don’t have that phone, so I really don’t know. The best thing would be contacting their customer support and asking them directly or if they have compatibility list on their website please check there.
Zdenka hi, i am practising with the gimble but is not easy without somebody teach to one in the field. For example the shot near the ground the phone film backwards. Iam tryng but i cant. when I want to take the shot at ground level, the phone turns and shoots upside down, I don't know why it happens. Help, come to Argentina and give a face-to-face master class
Does this gimbal absolutely require the app to operate a steady cam feature? I just need it to stabilize some handheld footage to be collected while walking, and I do not want to use the app.
Quick heads up for anyone there now is a way to switch modes on the Gimbal itself.
A) Press & hold down the shutter button
B) Then press the power button...

@@ZdenkaDarula No problem! :)
Thanks your tip, I remember at the beginning play, but I forget after I did not play after a month. Your tip is helpful
@@ZdenkaDarula should I buy hohem I steady X or Moza Mini MX according to you. And I am an android user. Please give your opinion.
"There is nothing missing and there is nothing extra " - is the best line for me . Thanks 😊.
😂 finally someone noticed! I was giggling when I was writing that script as I was including that line. 😊🎬🎥📸
Awesome.. just the line i was looking for ..
I can't seem to find 4K 60fps for my Android phone, are you sure you have that for your Samsung phone? I heard it's only available for iPhones
This is not the best gimbal as I found defect in manual locks and the zoom is jerky in the two units received so far from Amazon. May be in India the sellers are dumping the rejected pieces from China.
@@consumercourt If you have any problem with the gymbal comment separately. Don't comment under my comment.

Yes. The locks in this gimbal are defective. Even the zoom is jerky. The software is primitive. I have observed in two units bought from amazon
You are putting in the work for this channel. Bravo. Keep up the good work.
Thank you very much... yes I try to be well prepared 🎬😊📸🎥
I will also happy too see comparisons between filming without gimbal at all at first. However thank you for this. It was so helpful for me!
You are very welcome
I think this is the best packaging I have seen on a Gimbal. (still watching the video but wanted to say that first before it slipped off my mind) :)
And I agree. That was my reaction too when I first saw it 😊🎥🎬📸
Thank you! This was very helpful. I’ve never used a gimbal before and didn’t really know how to get started. Your explanations were very good.
You are very welcome 📸🎥😊🎬
Thank you for reviewing this,there were no other proper reviews
You’re very welcome. I had it here for a while I was waiting for the release date. 😉📸🎥🎬📸
Just updated to IPhone 12 and looks like this gimbal will be ideal for 1st time. Loved your video and well explained. Thanks
You are very welcome.... enjoy
Hello Zdenka, nice to see you got the Hohem iSteady X review, i am planning to get one. 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Hi there. It is a great little gimbal for sure. I think you will like it. Enjoy 😊🎬🎥📸
Good work! you are the only vlogger testing with both Apple and android.
Thank you very much
Can you do a comparison to the DJI mobile 3 (I believe that's its name).
Yes I will be making a comparison video. 😊🎥🎬📸
Yes I also want DJI mobile 3 vs this one please. Waiting for it 🙏❤️🥰
YES.
Yeah looking forward to a side by side comparison.
This will be a good idea as even I want to buy a new gimble and wants to compare it with Dji osmo 3.

I want to buy a cheap gimbal and I am undecided between these two.
Or if you know another one within this price and better, please recommend me.
Thanks
I cannot make the decision for you.... sorry
Very good video. What's the difference with the X2? It looks the same for me. Can you charge the phone with it? If it can charge the phone, then I will go for it since it's half price compared with the X2.
All features were shown in this video… I unfortunately don’t know the one you are mentioning… sorry
Very well explained and a detailed vdo on the gimble operation. Being a new RUclipsr this is extremely helpful to me.. Thanks for sharing. Have you made such review for Dji osmo 3? Coz I believe that's the one which has been most popular among all brands
Thank you very much for your support.... new DJI gimbal should be out in 2 months or so ... just a heads up 😊🎥📸🎬
subscribed pressed bell icon liked aswell,sooner im gonna buy this one hohen iSteady x ,thank you so your tremendous review on this
Need a decision. The store was OUT OF STOCK on the DJI Mobile 3 YESTERDAY as I walked in on their reopening day. Is your video a sign I should consider this as a viable choice vs DJI? Comparison of feature by feature will help me make choice.
Thank you very much for your question. I will be making a very detailed compress on video on that very soon so stay tuned. 📸😊🎬🎥
Cannot wait - ordered the Højen yesterday and will buy the OSMO M3 once the price drops in response to the market’s rebound from C-19. I like the WHITE as one of my iPhones IS white.
This gimbal is so light and I believe more of a McConsumer model whereas the purchase of BOTH is completely warranted if you intend to do more than touristy beach shots. DJI3 is no doubt required at the PRO level; +capabilities+
Hey Zdenka, have you checked the new one? The iSteady Mobile +?
This one is the best ruclips.net/video/oRL34iOsK94/видео.html
@@ZdenkaDarula Uau, that looks really cool, I just watched your video! But we can't get them in Brasil, my only options are iSteady X, iSteady Mobile+ & the ridiculous expensive DJI OM 4.
I never had a gimbal, but I really would like to buy a good one because I don't know when I will get another one. I really wanna chose right, I know there is no right or wrong, but when you have a budget it's important to try! Which of the Hohem would you chose if you could pick only one?
Hi Zdenka! I'm choosing between this and the osmo 3.
I can get the osmo 3 combo with the tripod etc for about 115 usd
The I smooth x for about 57usd.
Ill have to get the isteady x from abroad tho so the warranty is a bit of a question.
Which would you suggest between the two? I'm just an amateur phone video shooter using it for some cooking videos and some b rolls on a p20 pro. Thanks!
I actually like the Hohem for android better. It is just easier to use. 📸😊🎬🎥
@@ZdenkaDarula thanks zdenka!
@@ZdenkaDarula Hi, in your comparison video of the app of 6 gimbals, you have put Hohem isteady x last for android. However, here in the comment, I saw you mentioned, Hohem supports android better than DJI or Zhiyun smooth x. How good is this unit based on your usage with Android? I am planning to use it with Galaxy Note 20 Ultra. Thank you for all the comprehensive videos.
Hi, Zenka I have samsung note 9 which 1 is better this one or dji om 3? Thank you
I think this one
@@ZdenkaDarula thank you 😊
Hi Zdenka. Thank you for a brilliant insight into this gimbal. As a first time gimbal user I am about to order the steady X based on your review. I reckon I can experiment as a a newby for not too much money. Oen question: in the video you mentioned that it is not possible to lock exposure. Is this not a real problem? I noticed in one of your other videos you stated that if exposure is not locked "things can look a little colourful". Is this a big deal or should I just get on with it and experiment with the iSteady? Thanks & Regards Michael
I heard that they are about to come out with new app so it should be all taken care of. I would send them quick email and ask when the new app will be out. 🎥📸🎬😊
Hey Zdenka! I just bought this gimbal and apparently it was given a lot of firmware updates! On my S20 FE ultra wide angle works inside their camera app (quite tricky, not so comfortable to switch between Ultra and wide lens and also tele is not available), 24fps works (no 60fps unfortunately), Pro/Manual settings of ISO, shutter and white balance are better placed.
Thank you very much for sharing
Hello Zdenka, I hope that you'll make a comparison video with the new moza mini mx 😁 Awesome review btw.
Well how did you know? 😆😉🎥🎬📸
can Samsung s20+ fit to the gimbal what would you recommend
I would check Hohem website for compatibility list
May we check if this gimbal does motion timelapse? If so, did it work well? Are we able to set waypoints/intervals,/ durations ?
All the features were mentioned in the video. If it wasn’t there then it doesn’t have it. 😊🎬🎥📸
Noted w thanks
The best video i have seen so far
It’s a good deal for the price....
I’ve still got the DJI Osmo Mobile 1.
I am a little concerned about that phone holder... looks a bit cheap to me.....
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. The holder is actually way better then DJI... I dropped a phone from DJI recently. This holds... really strong 😊🎥🎬📸
This is a HUGE plus - after paying $2,250. for my loaded iPhone 11 PRO Max and complete noob to gimbals, the LAST thing I want to see is that device hitting the concrete!!!!! Better grip is best. I checked the weight; phone is 226 grams to this rating of 280. Good news!
10:24 is what I was here for. Looking at the way the gimbal arms are designed, I was skeptical about the advertised 270 degrees tilt on the Hohem website. And my doubt was right. It has a very very limited tilt. And also has very inefficiently set up buttons which cannot be used to change modes.
I have this gimbal and the tilt is limited… 😩
Tilt is limited and locks do not work. The zooming is jerky.
How does this comapre to the isteady plus? Which one would you recommend
I wish I could answer that but unfortunately this is the only gimbal I have and I don’t know the other one. Sorry. 😊🎬🎥📸
@@ZdenkaDarula that's fine don't worry. Thanks anyway 👍👍
Does this do body track like the DJI does? or does it only do face tracking?
It is the same thing. 🎬😊🎥📸
Did you have any visible motor in frame while using S10 series? Better than Smooth Q2 for that issue?
No I don’t have any issues. I don’t see motors in the shot 😊🎥🎬📸
0:28 The intro sequence reminds me so much of the style we asked models to emulate back in the day on FHM and SI bikini edition shoots.
😂 ok.,... Not sure what I mean but certainly it was not intentional. 😊🎬🎥📸
@@ZdenkaDarula LOL I know. It just triggered in my head this morning when packing away old copies of magazines. Thank you for the awesome content.
I love that it fits in a hand bag. I love that it stands on it's own on the table too. I have a question: My phone is without any apps (I keep my phone Internet-free but I sometimes use it to film extra shots), can this be used without the app? And just use my own phone setting for stills and videos?
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Yes you can absolutely use it just video native camera app. 📸😊🎬🎥
Hi. Apologies for my ignorance. I heard you say native camera app in the vodeo but I didn't know if that just meant what my phone does already or if that has to be with a downloaded app. Thank you. I'm learning. Been watching more M50 videos today as well. Happy Weekend and thank you. - Ivy
Hi there. Thanks for this informative video. You just got a new subs. I just wanna know which one is better using with iphone 12. The Hohem Isteady X or DJI OM3? Thanks for your answer. Appreciate it.
I honestly cannot say they’re both great. Everyone prefers DJI though
@@ZdenkaDarula thanks so much 😊
Thanks for the video! Was just wondering if you could lock the exposure when using inception mode and you answered it at the end. I’ve just bought this and you still can’t lock the exposure from what I can see which is a bit pointless.
Just tap on the screen and hold for few seconds… that should do it
Ma'am you're just awesome.. so much informative video. 👍
Hi there, which version of the app were you using with? Seems not connecting to my note 9, s10 lite
I’m sorry this video is quite old and I don’t have the gimbal anymore so I cannot really advice
@@ZdenkaDarula Sad to hear that. Was a nice piece, but should return now. Thanks for all your effort on gimbal comparisons. Helped a lot 👍
Hi I wanna ask which gimbal is suitable for Canon M6 Mark2 (with standard lens) and Canon G7Xmark3..either DJI SC or Zhiyun Crane M2..I wanna buy gimbal for both of my Cameras...Thank u dear.
To be honest I have only one and that is Aircross 2 from Moza so I can not compare... sorry 😊🎥🎬📸
So so far I have watched a few of your viedos and I am not sure which is the overall best for samsung s22ultra. Can you point me to a few?
For that phone I would go with something stronger… Zhiyun smooth 5 would be a good choice
Great review Zdenka well explained.....I have Hohem isteady pro 2 for my Gopro's and it a brilliant piece of kit and use DJI Osmo mobile 3 for my phone.......stay safe.....thanks for sharing
Thank you very much for your feedback.... good to know you are happy 🎬😊🎥📸
Hey zdenka!
I have been watching your review videos on smartphone gimbles lately. Could you please tell me does honem isteady x2 work on samsung galaxy s22 ultra?
I wish I could ask for this, however, I don’t have that phone, so I really don’t know. The best thing would be contacting their customer support and asking them directly or if they have compatibility list on their website please check there.
Hi
Can we use this gimbal for s21 ultra and that too without the app?
As I don’t have that phone I don’t know compatibility. That you need to check on their website. Yes you can switch modes in any app
I use this with a Pixe Fold (no case) and the weight is maxxed out but it does work great...
Thank you very much for sharing
Oh my I have so much to learn
nice review! and is it possible to change working mode(lock mode, pov etc) in hohem app but record using native camera?
Thank you very much. Unfortunately the moles have to be changed only in the app. 😊🎬📸🎥
Zdenka one question: moments is only 13 seconds of filmation or you can film the time you want and how we do it?
No, these are only short clips, which are then edited together
Zdenka hi, i am practising with the gimble but is not easy without somebody teach to one in the field.
For example the shot near the ground the phone film backwards.
Iam tryng but i cant.
when I want to take the shot at ground level, the phone turns and shoots upside down, I don't know why it happens. Help, come to Argentina and give a face-to-face master class
New to your channel truly amazing video and really enjoyed Deb.👌✌
Thank you very much and welcome to the channel. 😊🎥📸🎬
Does this gimbal absolutely require the app to operate a steady cam feature? I just need it to stabilize some handheld footage to be collected while walking, and I do not want to use the app.
I think you can use other apps but You do need to activate it with theirs first
Which gimbal should I buy Moza mini Mi or Hohem i steady x..?
They are both good.... price range would be your decision
@@ZdenkaDarula my budget is around 5- 10 thousands rupees ..so which one should I prefer..?
Does it support the weight of s10plus and moment lens? Thanks
It is the same like DJI but here you cannot really attach counterweights 😊🎬🎥📸
Wich one do you prefer dij osmo 3 or this for huawei p30pro
And why?
I am fortunately cannot ask for that as I don’t know that phone. I would have to test it. 🎬🎥😊📸
I understand
Wich one you prefer for your phone and the app with they work?
