Great instructional video!. :) What smart phone side mount adaptor rig do you suggest using with the G6 Max? Is there one sold specifically for it? I have searched everywhere and not been able to find one with this gimbal mentioned by name as being compatible. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
Don't let the price deceive you!! Guys please be aware of this specific product (G6 MAX) from FeiyuTech, if you need to hook up a shotgun microphone with your mirrorless camera (M50, Sony or Lumix). Please check the weight of your camera setup before you guys ordering this gimbal. It is only good for point n shoot, smartphone and small mirrorless (with no attachments). I got this for my M50 with Rode videomic and the G6 gimbal simply can not handle the weight. If you guys have similar setup to mine please save your time and order the FeiyuTech AK2000s or ZhiYun Weebill S.
Yes it does get a bit overwhelmed once a few attachments are added. I’m very curious about the Weebill S as a next step up option. The AK is great I’m sure but I love the idea of keeping it small. We’d love to hear more about your experiences with these other gimbals with the M50!
@@ProMeiFilmsOfficial I got the FeiyuTech AK2000 S, it was about $50 cheaper than Weebill S. I have seen many reviews on ZhiYun Weebill S but couple of reviews on RUclips pointed out that it is cheaply made compared to all aluminum build of AK2000s. However if you want a more powerful motor the Weebill S (~6.61 lbs) is rated to handle a little bit more payload than AK2000S (~6 lbs). If you are checking into Weebill S then you should check out Moza Aircross 2, both are around the same price on Amazon.
@@AMAETV Hi Alicia, I ended up going with the AK2000S from FeiyuTech. I've been using it with my setup for a week and it has been truly amazing. It allows me to pretty much go in any angle without the gimbal loosing its stability.
@@Adhuljacob Hi Adhul, I bought the AK2000 as well. How do you hook the cable from the M50 to the gimbal to control the shotting settings? Because I tried all three cables that came with it and none of them fit any hole...thank you
Help! i tried to update the firmware with the Feiyu On app, but it doesn't work! after that, i noticed that i can't control my gimbal with the app too. >(
Im looking to buy one too. Really need one. The only thing i want to know is if it hits the top of the camera on certain angles. Best thing to do is go to a camera store and try it out if you can or live in a city where you have B&H or B&C store
Yes it does! The viewfinder hits the top when it’s properly balanced. I address this in the video where I go thru the full balancing process with it.. hope that helps!
Yes, you can but it’s a bit tricky to balance and it’s definitely pushing the gimbal to its limits. I cover it in detail in one of the later videos about balancing the G6 max
AMaeTV Thank you so much for your reply. I appreciate it very much. I love your channel! I am a singer songwriter and I want to start recording great videos of my music compositions, here is a link of my Spotify music channel, please feeling free to use a song on your videos if you like them, just please give me the credit for.

I brought this and I am unable to balance my canon M50 neither with the kit lens nor with 50mm f1. 4 and adapter nor with sigma 16mm f1.4!? And all of this are under 800grams!! Any tips or is it defected!!
@@thebeanbagshowz5145 Oh no! Try this.. Go into the FeiyuTech app and connect the gimbal, and then make sure your motor strength is set to max. If it wasn't already, then that was probably the reason.
I I need all your expert advice. G6 Maxx would be a great Gimbal for me but Some people in youtube and fb are saying the same thing. They are having problem Connecting cable fr G6 maxx to canon have 50 . They say there is too much stress on the cable if f6 maxx will be paired with Canon m50. What solution can we do about this? Are there any other issues with the compatibility of G6 Maxx with Canon M50? And are there solution for those challenges. Thank you. Keep safe and takecare everyone I would really appreciate all your reply thank you
Where and how do I get the device to transmit the image to my cell phone so I can use my phone as a monitor for this gimble.. answer my question quick and I'll use your link to buy it..
Thanks so much! I have watched a few of your videos now that have offered great tips for starting out with my Canon M50 and a gimbal is the next piece I'm looking to get started with!
So after purchasing the pocket-sized Feiyu gimbal and being pretty impressed with the quality. I thought it would be smart to check out this gimbal, the Feiyu G6Max, which is like the big brother for your more beefy cameras. Not only is this gimbal bigger, but it has so many features and feels more professional in every way.
Your daughter is so so sweet 😘, I'm definitely buying the g6 max because it's easy to carry around, it supports multiple devices and it also has more payload capability than the g6 plus, i only wish if they maxed out the screen size just like the AK2000s
Hi there, I have a question: I got this gimbal today, and I can't rotate the knob ring of the ROLL Axis, its very tight. I did everything I could but I gave up, my hands are hurting already. Do I have to use a special tool for this one? Thanks a lot.
Hi Alicia! Now 2 years later, do you still recommend or love this Gimbal?? The price point now is better for me. If there is a better Gimbal you use now, which one is it and do you have a review video? TY! Jules
Thank you. It was a very helpful video for me. M50 + Bundle lens and G6plus were used. The viewfinder gets caught in a gimbal shoot. Isn't the G6 MAX? I have a lot of low angling to film my kid.
The advent of small portable gimbals is a massive game changer-it now allows literally anyone to make pro-level movies, documentaries, travelogs with virtually no money. Your video was very impressive, with excellent cinematography and audio. What was not clear from your professionally shot video today is HOW it was shot? Did you use a gimbal, was a camera operator shooting you, and how much of this video was actually shot using the Max gimbal? I find that the most informative product videos are those that show a maximum amount of footage using the actual product. I travel a great deal and am interested in starting to shoot documentaries as a hobby. I have a sony a6600 camera and am very interested in your opinion about the optimal gimbal for my camera. I'm very impressed, though, with the form factor of the FeiyuTech G6Max. Again, I was very impressed with the quality of your work :).
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I'm sure this gimbal would work great with the A6600 too! And yes, all of the demo footage was shot by me, with the actual product- the G6 MAX gimbal, using the Canon M50 camera. With the exception of the footage shot OF the gimbal, and the footage shot in the studio.
Haha good question! My next video is going to talk a LOT more about the whole setup together.. The only problem so far is that it is very touchy to balance with the bigger lens (but not impossible) and the viewfinder does hit the back of the gimbal when the camera is pointing WAY up.. but that's rare and that has nothing to do with the Sigma lens. Otherwise it works well on the gimbal 98% of the time!
After using the G6Max for a few months - what is your take on reliability, battery life, firmware update support, etc. Any problems? Im about to purchase one to use with Canon M50/Sigma 16mm combo. I am so thankful for your videos and professional advice. Thank you!
I have the white m 50 with the kit lens weighing in at approx 529 grams. 387 for body with battery and memory. Kit lens weighs 141 grams rounded up. Thanks for the video !
Follow yr lead, bought Feiyu G6 max, Sigma 16mm/1.4 on Canon M50, but can’t do balance before turn on the power of gimbal. Because of this long and heavy lens, some angles the camera viewfinder also will touch and blocked by the arm of gimbal. Just curious how do you deal with this situation? - a new user from Shanghai, China.
Hi there! Good questions... "some angles the camera viewfinder also will touch and blocked by the arm of gimbal" Yes this is true, but it shouldn't obstruct much of the movement the camera needs to make. You really have to pull the camera body ALL the way back on the plate to get it balanced. And turn up the motor strength in the Feiyu-tech app. I'm going to do a whole video on balancing soon because a LOT of people need help with it :) Stay tuned!
can you help me with my problem about Canon M50 using it with feiyu tech G6max. At first, I can use the shutter button on G6max to control my camera but suddenly my Canon M50 gets busy. When I turn off both camera and gimbal It doesnt connect anymore. I hope you can help me this. Thank you.
Alicia thank you for your review. I actually purchased this gimbal two years ago after seeing your recommendation about it, especially since I also was running on a Canon M50 at that time. Now I haven't used this gimbal for almost a year and seems that the battery inside of it died. Do you have any ideas, contacts, maybe some stories to help replace the battery inside this gimbal ? I am struggling to find any service from this Chinese manufacturer and I have already sent them emails about it but nobody seems to be answering. Does anybody else have the same issue with this gimbal ? Thank you.

Hi Alicia, you have a very very helpful content. More success to your channel. May I just ask what video editing software do you use for your M50? Thank you in advance.
Can i just say THANK YOU for being a female creator making this review! The tech bros all drone on about the same jargon I don’t understand. Yours was explained well and so helpful!
At 8 minutes and 55 seconds into this video you have a phone mount on the Gimble and I can't seem to find it anywhere. I'm sure other people would like to know what mount that is also. If you could please let me know I'd really appreciate it and by the way absolutely love your channel and really appreciate your work.
Yes! Here are two Hohem: geni.us/SQV5g (Amazon) DJI: bhpho.to/2UxjY98 I get into more detail about it all in this video ruclips.net/video/Z2eyocRl2mo/видео.html
Alicia it would be helpful if you did a little on getting the balance right as you mentioned. I tried a gimbal last summer and I had so much trouble getting the balance that I'd miss the shot I was trying for. That was just a gimbal with the smart phone. I can only think it would be harder with the camera.
I think I will do that video soon! And believe it or not it's actually much harder to balance a smartphone due to its slim, flat shape. I found it almost impossible on a different gimbal, but I haven't tried it on this one. I will include the smartphone balance in the balancing video when I make one.. thanks for your feedback 😃
Hi! Thanks for sharing! In the 8:50 minutes mark, there is the monitor clip shown. Can you advise where to get it. Will the Gimbal be able to handle my Canon M50 or G7X Mark 3 if they are mounted on a cage with microphone. Appreciate your advice. Thanks!
Nice review. One quick question tho, were you able to balance the ROLL axis correctly? Like when you set the position of the camera, it will stay in place? Thank you!
Hello. Please, can you tell me if you have any issues with connecting this gimbal via wifi to m50. I have problems connecting and when it connects I have big delays when pressing record button on this gimbal, sometimes it dont even start or stop recording when pressed. Ive tried with my phone and canon app and theres no issues with connection or starting/stopping recording. Please reply.
Thank you for the review. It is great. I like Feiyutech G6MAX. The weight is only 665g that is so light to carry while traveling. But payload is 1.2kg that is crazy and it can cover almost all mirroless cameras. Great product.
I have been waiting and waiting for this video!!!!! Thank you so much! You mentioned this a few weeks back....so excited! Ok I let those ads run while I commented (😉😄🥰) and now I’ll watch the video. Love your content so much!! 💜
Awww that's awesome!! Yes I spent a while working on it because I really wanted to get to know the gimbal well first 😄Are you thinking about getting one? It's so fun to use!
@@PENNSMITHSKINCARE Yay! I'm excited that you're excited. I love your channel too! I hope my suggestions about gear help you give me more suggestions about skincare 😊
kellmark Tv it’s a good gimbal but it’s not strong enough with the sigma 16mm lens it barely makes it useable . Go with something stronger if you can afford it or just wait it out instead of being unhappy with the purchase
Yes! If you are holding the gimbal super low and trying to point the camera way UP then the viewfinder will hit it.. but it's not enough to bother me much. I wish Canon would do away with the viewfinder already 😆
Hi, I have purchased a Rode Videomicro and it’s picking up interference from the gimbal’s wifi when I use them together. So my videos shot with the camera, mic and gimbal have the audio pretty much ruined.
Alicia you’ve done it again, making me want another item to lug around. My concern is the setup time for this gizmo. I’m covering the huge shooting hunting and outdoor trade show in Las Vegas next week. The show will be very crowded and the space that I will have to shoot may be very tight. I’m going to switch off between my DSLR 80D and my G7X. A companion who is a long time still photographer but video novice will be using a Go Pro 8. In this noisy atmosphere my audio is my biggest concern. These challenges are always tricky to navigate. The good news is every time I shoot I learn new things and overall I see improvement. At the end of the day I will say it’s all in the technique more important than the fancy equipment. I still marvel at one your early travel vlogs in the great city of Amsterdam. You shot the video with just an older go Pro camera. That tells me it’s all about the content rather than the cinematography. However when you have terrific content and amazing cinematography the finished product is mine blowing. Thank you once again for an informative vlog!
Glad you enjoyed it Paul! Yes the G6 Max is another gizmo.. but I think it's worth it for the stabilization! If you are sticking to using one camera and one lens on it, then you can balance it at home and quickly set it up at the show. I would worry a little about audio on the G7x at the trade show, but if you search back on my channel you can find a video from Comic Con shot with the Mk II- and get an idea of how audio might sound. And yes definitely learning from your mistakes and getting better every time is what it's ALL about! I learned from my mistake of ONLY taking the GoPro to Amsterdam for that one 😊But thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed the vlog anyway!
Do you have any videos on great starter and more affordable options for people starting out in the vlog world? I'll be vlogging around our house and farm.
Hi Shanna, Nice! I bet there is lots to document around a farm and the processes that go into maintaining it. I have lots of videos covering various gear options, but no full videos recommending things for beginners. Perhaps I will make one! Thanks for the suggestion 😊I do always highly recommend the Canon G7x Mk II for beginners so you may want to watch some videos about that camera. Here is a comparison between that camera and the one I am using in this video. Both are great options! ruclips.net/video/Ifbki4VSQZQ/видео.html
Just wondering if any G6 Max owners have had any trouble with the power button? I have had to return 2 units as the power button has failed on both. It stays depressed and I'm unable to turn on/off the gimbal. A shame as it’s a great gimbal. thanks
Thanks Alicia, A few weeks ago I almost pulled the trigger on the crane M2 for use with my RX100. After seeing this one it might work even better. I wonder if I could get my AX700 on to it as well since the AX700 has a weight of just over 2lbs. Great VLOG as always. I am trying to incorporate a lot of what you have taught in every shot or edit. I think this year I am going to mess around with LUTS as well. Looking at a gimbal cause I just can't hold the camera still enough any more and when I look at everything in post I keep thinking it would be so much better if I had a gimbal.
Hi, I’m enjoying your reviews! I’m a newbie of all things “camera” and am a new owner of a M6 MKii. I see you also have one and I’m wondering how it’s functioning with this gimbal? PS I’m also looking at the Sigma 16mm. The weight of the MKii with that lens is still in spec but wondering what real-use limitations you’ve run into? Thanks!
The m50 will not communicate correctly. Tried everything and no zoom or follow focus. Plus there are times my m50 touch screen stops working. Wired or wifi will not fix this. So don't connect it with the G6 Max just use it as a gimbal. If any suggestions for a work around it would be greatly appreciated.
Yay, was looking for something like this cause I’m super tired of the shaky shaky! Much appreciated. It’s also such a pleasure to subscribe to a beautiful tech lady! 🤗👍❤️

Love this video, this what i was looking for. After 2 months use this gimbal, do you still recomended this gimal? What is pros and cons? Thank you😊🙏
Love your Videos.
I need all your expert advice.
G6 Maxx would be a great Gimbal for me but
Some people in youtube and fb are saying the same thing.
They are having problem Connecting cable fr G6 maxx to canon have 50 .
They say there is too much stress on the cable if f6 maxx will be paired with Canon m50.
What solution can we do about this?
Are there any other issues with the compatibility of
G6 Maxx with Canon M50?
And are there solution for those challenges.
Thank you.
Keep safe and takecare everyone
I would really appreciate all your reply thank you
i got one as birthday gift,real handy.
Hi Alicia, you have a very very helpful content. More success to your channel. May I just ask what video editing software do you use for your M50? Thank you in advance.
Hi there, and thanks! I use Final Cut Pro X
With that Gimbal, can you zoom in and out on the Canon M50?
Can i just say THANK YOU for being a female creator making this review! The tech bros all drone on about the same jargon I don’t understand. Yours was explained well and so helpful!
At 8 minutes and 55 seconds into this video you have a phone mount on the Gimble and I can't seem to find it anywhere.
I'm sure other people would like to know what mount that is also.
If you could please let me know I'd really appreciate it and by the way absolutely love your channel and really appreciate your work.
Yes! Here are two
Hohem: geni.us/SQV5g (Amazon)
DJI: bhpho.to/2UxjY98
I get into more detail about it all in this video ruclips.net/video/Z2eyocRl2mo/видео.html
I like this chanel because I like her 😍😍😘😘
Nice gear for beautiful lady and compacted camera. Thanks for sharing so much tips.
Thank you for this video. So informative after watching your Sigma 16mm video. I’d love to see how you balanced it.
So glad it was helpful! I've had a lot of requests for it so I will definitely make a balancing video soon 😃
Alicia it would be helpful if you did a little on getting the balance right as you mentioned. I tried a gimbal last summer and I had so much trouble getting the balance that I'd miss the shot I was trying for. That was just a gimbal with the smart phone. I can only think it would be harder with the camera.
I think I will do that video soon! And believe it or not it's actually much harder to balance a smartphone due to its slim, flat shape. I found it almost impossible on a different gimbal, but I haven't tried it on this one. I will include the smartphone balance in the balancing video when I make one.. thanks for your feedback 😃
Hi! Thanks for sharing! In the 8:50 minutes mark, there is the monitor clip shown. Can you advise where to get it. Will the Gimbal be able to handle my Canon M50 or G7X Mark 3 if they are mounted on a cage with microphone. Appreciate your advice. Thanks!
Nice review. One quick question tho, were you able to balance the ROLL axis correctly? Like when you set the position of the camera, it will stay in place? Thank you!
Are there any other all in one gimbals that can take a heavier payload? I dont wanna get one for my phone and another one for camera.
I just love how informative you are! Thank you so much for your videos!
I'm so glad to hear it was helpful! 😃
Hello. Please, can you tell me if you have any issues with connecting this gimbal via wifi to m50. I have problems connecting and when it connects I have big delays when pressing record button on this gimbal, sometimes it dont even start or stop recording when pressed. Ive tried with my phone and canon app and theres no issues with connection or starting/stopping recording.
Please reply.
How much is this now in dollar? Im from philippines
Where do you buy the phone adapter for monitoring?
Yes, please let us know what phone mount you purchased for you G6 Max. Thank you.
Can you use the Canon G7X Mark II with the screen up on this? Thank!
Yep! You couldn’t do the crazy barrel roll moves but it’s fine that way for vlogging
AMaeTV Brilliant, thanks for the reply! 👍
Thank you for the review. It is great. I like Feiyutech G6MAX. The weight is only 665g that is so light to carry while traveling. But payload is 1.2kg that is crazy and it can cover almost all mirroless cameras. Great product.
I have been waiting and waiting for this video!!!!! Thank you so much!
You mentioned this a few weeks back....so excited!
Ok I let those ads run while I commented (😉😄🥰) and now I’ll watch the video.
Love your content so much!!
💜
Awww that's awesome!! Yes I spent a while working on it because I really wanted to get to know the gimbal well first 😄Are you thinking about getting one? It's so fun to use!
AMaeTV oh yes I’m getting it today!! And I’m super excited about your setup video coming next! 💜
@@PENNSMITHSKINCARE Yay! I'm excited that you're excited. I love your channel too! I hope my suggestions about gear help you give me more suggestions about skincare 😊
I bought the M50 because of you. Might consider getting the same gimbal as well..
How does the gimbal works with the sigma 16mm since you had it?
kellmark Tv it doesn’t
@@nickychops6729 thank you very much for that info I was about to order it👍🏾sigh.
kellmark Tv it’s a good gimbal but it’s not strong enough with the sigma 16mm lens it barely makes it useable . Go with something stronger if you can afford it or just wait it out instead of being unhappy with the purchase
Does the viewfinder hit the gimbal in any shooting scenario? E.g. shooting low to the ground.
Yes! If you are holding the gimbal super low and trying to point the camera way UP then the viewfinder will hit it.. but it's not enough to bother me much. I wish Canon would do away with the viewfinder already 😆
AMaeTV M6 Mark II solves that issue
Hi,
I have purchased a Rode Videomicro and it’s picking up interference from the gimbal’s wifi when I use them together.
So my videos shot with the camera, mic and gimbal have the audio pretty much ruined.
can you start and stop recording on the M50? Through bluetooth?
Alicia you’ve done it again, making me want another item to lug around. My concern is the setup time for this gizmo. I’m covering the huge shooting hunting and outdoor trade show in Las Vegas next week. The show will be very crowded and the space that I will have to shoot may be very tight. I’m going to switch off between my DSLR 80D and my G7X. A companion who is a long time still photographer but video novice will be using a Go Pro 8. In this noisy atmosphere my audio is my biggest concern. These challenges are always tricky to navigate. The good news is every time I shoot I learn new things and overall I see improvement. At the end of the day I will say it’s all in the technique more important than the fancy equipment. I still marvel at one your early travel vlogs in the great city of Amsterdam. You shot the video with just an older go Pro camera. That tells me it’s all about the content rather than the cinematography. However when you have terrific content and amazing cinematography the finished product is mine blowing. Thank you once again for an informative vlog!
Glad you enjoyed it Paul! Yes the G6 Max is another gizmo.. but I think it's worth it for the stabilization! If you are sticking to using one camera and one lens on it, then you can balance it at home and quickly set it up at the show. I would worry a little about audio on the G7x at the trade show, but if you search back on my channel you can find a video from Comic Con shot with the Mk II- and get an idea of how audio might sound. And yes definitely learning from your mistakes and getting better every time is what it's ALL about! I learned from my mistake of ONLY taking the GoPro to Amsterdam for that one 😊But thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed the vlog anyway!
Do you have any videos on great starter and more affordable options for people starting out in the vlog world? I'll be vlogging around our house and farm.
Hi Shanna, Nice! I bet there is lots to document around a farm and the processes that go into maintaining it. I have lots of videos covering various gear options, but no full videos recommending things for beginners. Perhaps I will make one! Thanks for the suggestion 😊I do always highly recommend the Canon G7x Mk II for beginners so you may want to watch some videos about that camera. Here is a comparison between that camera and the one I am using in this video. Both are great options! ruclips.net/video/Ifbki4VSQZQ/видео.html
@@AMAETV Awesome thanks. Im subscribed so I will be watching for an upcoming video. Thanks!
Can’t wait for your next video! Thank you!
Thanks! Next video is live if you haven't seen it :) ruclips.net/video/Z2eyocRl2mo/видео.html
Does this Gimbal works with de Canon M6 mark II?
With de sigma lens on it of course 😜
Hello can i ask you some question ? Can we usu with canon M50 with Sigma len 16mm f 1.4 ?
Thank you from Thailand ^^
Yes, if you're talking about the Sigma EF-M mount.
@@pitcherthis6483 Thank you so much ^^
Just wondering if any G6 Max owners have had any trouble with the power button? I have had to return 2 units as the power button has failed on both. It stays depressed and I'm unable to turn on/off the gimbal. A shame as it’s a great gimbal. thanks
How do you change the language to English in the Chinese menu?
Hmm which menu? You might want to reach out to FeiyuTech about it. I never did see a menu in Chinese..
Thanks Alicia, A few weeks ago I almost pulled the trigger on the crane M2 for use with my RX100. After seeing this one it might work even better. I wonder if I could get my AX700 on to it as well since the AX700 has a weight of just over 2lbs. Great VLOG as always. I am trying to incorporate a lot of what you have taught in every shot or edit. I think this year I am going to mess around with LUTS as well. Looking at a gimbal cause I just can't hold the camera still enough any more and when I look at everything in post I keep thinking it would be so much better if I had a gimbal.
The tonne pun made me laugh out loud. Great video!
Ur public speaking ability is so nice to hear. Thanks for the info. Btw how do you compare with crane m2? Thanks
Hi, I’m enjoying your reviews! I’m a newbie of all things “camera” and am a new owner of a M6 MKii. I see you also have one and I’m wondering how it’s functioning with this gimbal? PS I’m also looking at the Sigma 16mm. The weight of the MKii with that lens is still in spec but wondering what real-use limitations you’ve run into? Thanks!
You think i can use a sigma 16mm lens with this gimbal? thank you
Yes! It's tricky, but I just published a video about exactly how to balance it with the Sigma 16 ruclips.net/video/Skxtz9Foauw/видео.html
Hey Alicia, does still work your FeiyuTech G6 MAX gimbal? Are you still happy with it? Cheers!
nice gear for vlogger!
Really missed you and your video content. Immense Love from India... 🇮🇳
Thanks so much! My love to India ❤️
The m50 will not communicate correctly. Tried everything and no zoom or follow focus. Plus there are times my m50 touch screen stops working. Wired or wifi will not fix this. So don't connect it with the G6 Max just use it as a gimbal. If any suggestions for a work around it would be greatly appreciated.
Yay, was looking for something like this cause I’m super tired of the shaky shaky! Much appreciated. It’s also such a pleasure to subscribe to a beautiful tech lady! 🤗👍❤️
Hi! With the multifunction knob , you can control the focus on the Canon m50? (I'm from Russia, sorry if I translated incorrectly))))
