I had this gimbal picking dust because i had no time to use it for a while and initial tests left me undewhelmed. Watched a few tutorials did a bit of practice and got a lot more comfortable with it. But this one really is the best tutorial i have seen. Calm reassuring voice and very well organized. Gear companies should be reaching out to you to make tutorials for them.
I've watch a lot of gimbal videos but I have to give you credit for one of the best I've seen. I learned more in this video than all the others combined. Well done!
This is the 4th balancing video I've watched for this model. All the others left out really important info, such as sliding the camera all the way to the motor etc. Thanks for taking the time to make this.
You are a gem! Your educational videos covers all corners around and You should have 1000 times more views and it won't be enough! Please keep up the great work!
Seriously? You have put together the most informative video I've seen , not only on the Zhiyun Crane + , but on shooting with a gimbal in general. Very well done brother. I just got my ZC+ today and can't wait to get out there with the Sony and my new gimbal. Following........
Thanks a lot, Sonny! Much appreciate the nice comment! AND of course thank you so much!! for the support on buymeacoffey! Happy to hear you enjoyed the video:) Greetings!
This the best balancing and tips video I've seen for the Crane plus and I'm sure other similar gimbals. For a newbie, it's going to save me a lot of trial and error and give better results than some of the other videos I've watched previously. Thanks!
I'm studing some public speaching tips and, man, you're the style I hope to reach one day. Cristal clear presentation and structurated video. Thank you so much from Valtellina, Italy!
@@Mark10ProVideo thanks for reply to my comment. So I see the base and head you used from the video you linked but not the clamp. Is it the "SMALLRIG Super Clamp w/1/4 and 3/8 Thread for Cameras" that you listed on "My Gear"
hey, very very useful video. one thing to note is that the Manfrotto QR plate can't be fitted to the crane plus with sony A7 III. it cause the camera to rise too high and clashes with the pan motor also balance is very difficult to achieve. I ended up with the QR plate that you have used in your link and it worked a treat. many many thanks. look forward to your future videos!
Wow, Ive been having problems understanding how gimbals work. this tutorial has been a true life saver. thank you so much! However, I do have a problem. I managed to get the gimbal to balance forward BUT the tilt still seems off. It doesnt stay put when i move it in different directions in reference to time stamp 4:07. Please, do you have any additional suggestions of how to fix the tilt? thank you for all your help!
I just replaced my Alpha 7 for an A6400. I can tell your videos helped me a lot in my confusion about which model to choose, so big thanks for that. I am super happy with it. Now, RUclips throws these videos up, so I can not do anything else, I have to buy a gimbal, too. 😄By the way, your English is superb. 👍🏻
Thanks alot for the nice comment, Krisztian! Much appreciated:) Also look into a decent steadicam, they are an uunderappreicated piece of equipment I think. Greetings!
Great info and presentation... As a 20yr camera vet of Hollywood movies, I can say you know that you're doing and talking about. I used to operate the OG Steadicam, It's definitely harder to smoothly operate this light modern gear. Well done, bro...
Nicely done! Do you have any videos about connecting the crane plus to a Sony Camera using ZY Play? I can’t get my iPhone to show the camera display no matter what I do. Is there a trick. I’ll keep looking in the meantime.
TubeNoob thank you I have been using my phone and the Sony shutter app but I noticed some of my recordings came out skipping frames and some came out good I will look into the MA5
i've been planning on getting my first hybrid camera (70% video/ 30% still) under 1000$ for about a week now and after some basic research from the web and general youtube recommendations honed it down to the sony a6400. i subscribed to 2 youtube channels (i never subscribe to youtube content but i really want to get into photography) in the process before stumbling onto your channel. after seeing your content, i unsubscribed the other ones and you are now the only one i am subscribed to. thank you. looking forward to more video/ photography content from you.
Thanks for the nice comment and support, Rain Catcher! Much appreciated:) Corona has me worried about other things right now, but I am currently planning videos on in camera color and color theory and application for videographers. Greetings!
Man, ...THIS was fantastic! Many thanks. ~Looking for a second Gimbal for a small, modded Canon., it was either this or the smaller M2., but everything in here is Gold. Thanks again! Cheers~
Following this video exactly (as well as pretty much every other Crane Plus video), I was able to balance the A6600 on every axis except the tilt access using a 35mm 1.4f prime lens. Very annoying, but I think due to the light weight and the extension range limitation on the tilt axis, it's preventing the tilt axis from being balanced perfectly. Will be getting a Sigma 16mm soon and will be testing on the tilt axis again with a heavier lens. Either way, I don't hear or see any issues with the motor without the tilt axis balanced so far with the A6600 + 35mm 1.4f lens.
also I for some reason did not fully turn off my DJI 3 gimbal for Iphone, and checked it a few hours later and was surprised it was still on and very hot, even in a case,
Great video. i used to be able to connect my a6400 to the app, now it doesnt work. I cant see the screen (gray) on my phone or control/calibrate the crane plus. Would you know what is causing that? The Crane itself is working just fine and and I can connect to the app, but nothing works after that. Thanks for all the tips.
Thanks:) I won'T get my hands on one soon, but except for the flip down screen and the few lens options it is a very good camera. makes sense in nikons lineup. Anything in particular you are interested in?
@@Mark10ProVideo How it stacks up against the competition. Autofocus, Low light, Ergos, Price to features/value.. you know the usual. Thanks for responding and your opinion. Love your work.
The Crane Plus would be a very good gimbal for that combo. I haven't used all teh others to be able to tell you it is the best one though. I enjoyed using it while I had it for sure!
What do you mean? Just use the camera with the gimbal in this configuration? YOu could, but if you run around with the whole contraption all day your arms will start to hurt:)
Your video is great n useful to me. I am using sony a6400 and a sony 35mm f.1.8 lens. My question is my lens (light n small) can work well with zhiyun crane plus?
Very well explained, thank you, it should be added that the smartphone application has a small bug and you have to hold the phone in horizontal position in order to correctly display all your options, such as selecting the type of camcorder used
Just baught the Sony a6400. I will be climbing kilimanjaro and was wondering whether to get a gimbal but now I'm thinking it maybe more of a pain in that type of setting. What say you. Thanks.
Hola mark, tengo la sony a6400 y el zhiyum crane plus, pero no logro utilizarlo correctamente, ya que no cuento con tanto peso. Que utilizas debajo de la camara sony a6400 para hacerle mas peso?
Hi, thanks for this informative video, I'm just wondering how I can delete saved scene modes or even modify existing ones? Do you have any tip to delete unused saved settings? Thanks
I recently switch from a DSLR to the Sony A6400 mainly for my interest in video. I have the Sony 18-105 F4 as my only lens. I feel that a gimbal would be a good investment, my question would be how to use the power zoom with the camera on the gimbal? I appreciate your advice.
There are gimbals that feature a focus wheel and a camera remote connection via cable that allow you to control it via the gimbal controls. I am not sure, but since its a powerzoom lens maybe there is a way to use the focus wheel to control the zoom. If you want full range you need a gimbal with a cradle big enough to hold the camera with the zoom extended half way, which is how I would balance teh gimbal. Then all you can do is hope that the gimbal is strong enough to work with the lens full extended and fully retracted. Usually you do not zoom on a gimbal, but that is how I do it when I use my 24-70 on my gimbal.
@@Mark10ProVideo Thank you for your comprehensive response! Still not sure what I will do but have been looking at video heads for my Manfrotto tripod.
Depends on how heavy your setup is. I have switched to a ronin s, because I use the 24 70 f2.8 now, including a cage and a small monitor. So I had to use a stronger gimbal. It really comes down to how much weight you need to put on the gimbal. Weigh your setup and then check the specs for the weight limits. I can recommend both.
@@Mark10ProVideo hı since my setup is lightweight i went for zhijun crane plus. But i can't make the tilt balance when looking at top as you showed in the video it always fall to front. İs my setup so lightweight that i can't use with crane plus? İ tried several times. My setup is sony a6400 + 16-50mm kit lens or sigma 30mm f1.4
I premeditate the shots a much a spossible, practice my ninja walk and use the appropriate mode. Usually that works fine. Sometimes I appla some digital stab. Jitter, as in micro jittery movements I have not had to deal with. Sometimes the workload for the gimbal is too heavy and it starts to jitter, but I am pretty sure I just need to use fully charged batteries and watch the weight limit. When are you running into those problems?
Thank you so much! I just got this gimbal and this is the first and best video that could pop up! Question, i'm having trouble balancing my a6300 with the 16-50mm, its too light so i cant balance it when looking up (move the thingy all the way in and its still tilting forward :( )is that going to affect much? Is ther a way around it? Thank you!
Shouldn'T be much of a problem at all...you could however get one of these tiny l brackets for the Sony and shift the weight over a little further. I think that once solved the balancing problem. Then again-performance-wise- shouldn't be a big deal for the gimbal.
Thank you so much for all these details!!! I am a self learner and your video helps a lot!!! Just one question, where do I get that rounded clamp? Do they in zhiyun website?
hello friend! very good video! i have a7iii with tamron 28 75..ill buy gimbal and im thinking crane plus and AK2000.. whats your opinion? Am i gonna have smooth results with crane plus ??or will be strugle? many videos have slowmotion footages with this set up and i cant have clear ''view'' when walking or runing..
I think the zhyiyun crane has the better algorithms, but I have not used the feiytech ak2000 yet. I think the AK2000 being a bit stornger than the crane plus and having the slanted roll axis will be the better pick.
Def getting this same crane. Please help though. I have the japanese version of the a6400, and I cannot get the language screen to change to english on the settings. It doesn't even have one!!!! Is there a hack for this yet, like there was for the 6000? Someone please help
Try initializing the camera. It should offer you the language options after you turn on the camera. If english isn't listed, which it should be....then I don'T know of anyother way. Maybe install a different language firmware althogether....
Very helpful video - thank you! When I go into the Zhiyun app and create the two profiles - Cinematic and Action -- they don't save. When I go to use them the gimbal settings are back to default, and neither shows up as an option when I go into scene mode. Any idea as to what I might be doing wrong?
Do you tap "save"? In landscape mode the icon might nopt show up unless you scroll down a little from the settings tabs..
5 лет назад+2
is there a lightweight audio cable on the market? as I'm using my rode videomic mounted directly to the ronin sc and simple jack cables are not so lightweight ones.
I don't know of any audio cables tha use the same technology as the FPV cables....sry....maybe there do exist cables like that, but I haven't seen them yet.
5 лет назад
@@Mark10ProVideo I got that, thanks a lot! :) I will try to mount the cable on every axes of the ronin with some cable tie wrap. I hope that could help maybe.
5 лет назад
TubeNoob what lenth of a fpv hdmi cable do you recommend? just getting confushed wheter is better to wrap the cable on the axes of the gimbal or just dont bother with it. As know I tied the cables on the gimball (jack, hdmi) but still not working well as the gimbal can get easily out of balance
Good stuff dude just subscribe to your Channel very well explained very detailed top notch. I'm about to buy the a 6400 I'm just getting into making videos I know you're high on those three sigma lenses. Have you tried the Tameron 16 mm to 28 mm F 2.8 for the Sony ? Heard it super super good really sharp lightweight.
Thanks:) YOu mean the 17-28 f2.8 zoom I take it. I haven'T had a chance to test that one. But if you'Re not going to spend the dollars fopr the GM that is your only option, and from what I hear it is a very good one. I myself always rent the full frame lenses for my client work, and then get the GMs, because I can simply list it as expenses. If I was to get a full frame lens myself, I would rent the 17-28 and see whether the zoom range is ok for me to work with, or whether I simply need to have 35mm on the tele end, because I know I wonÄT care about 16mm over 17mm although that is a significant difference in viewing angel. For what I do it doesn't matter though. 28 to 35, that might actually matter....I would have to test that myself...17-28 is a full frame lens though..... Or did you mean the new 16 50 f2.8 for apsc?
@@Mark10ProVideo thanks for your reply no I mean the 17 to 28mm F 2.8 tameron. It's a full frame lens but it works on Sony a 6100 6400 etc all the reviews I've watched are just it's an excellent excellent lens. I'm considering that or the three sigma Prime's that you mentioned those get really good reviews to those are those are excellent lenses but I may prefer resume over three primes I'm not sure yet I made by my a 6400 and rent those lenses and try them all out before I buy them. Keep up the good work man love the channel.

I premeditate the shots a much a spossible, practice my ninja walk and use the appropriate mode. Usually that works fine. Sometimes I appla some digital stab. Jitter, as in micro jittery movements I have not had to deal with. Sometimes the workload for the gimbal is too heavy and it starts to jitter, but I am pretty sure I just need to use fully charged batteries and watch the weight limit. When are you running into those problems?
Thank you so much! I just got this gimbal and this is the first and best video that could pop up! Question, i'm having trouble balancing my a6300 with the 16-50mm, its too light so i cant balance it when looking up (move the thingy all the way in and its still tilting forward :( )is that going to affect much? Is ther a way around it? Thank you!
Shouldn'T be much of a problem at all...you could however get one of these tiny l brackets for the Sony and shift the weight over a little further. I think that once solved the balancing problem. Then again-performance-wise- shouldn't be a big deal for the gimbal.
Thank you so much for all these details!!! I am a self learner and your video helps a lot!!!
Just one question, where do I get that rounded clamp? Do they in zhiyun website?
What rounded clamp? Can you give me a timestamp?
hello friend! very good video!
i have a7iii with tamron 28 75..ill buy gimbal and im thinking crane plus and AK2000..
whats your opinion? Am i gonna have smooth results with crane plus ??or will be strugle?
many videos have slowmotion footages with this set up and i cant have clear ''view'' when walking or runing..
I think the zhyiyun crane has the better algorithms, but I have not used the feiytech ak2000 yet. I think the AK2000 being a bit stornger than the crane plus and having the slanted roll axis will be the better pick.
Def getting this same crane. Please help though. I have the japanese version of the a6400, and I cannot get the language screen to change to english on the settings. It doesn't even have one!!!! Is there a hack for this yet, like there was for the 6000? Someone please help
Try initializing the camera. It should offer you the language options after you turn on the camera. If english isn't listed, which it should be....then I don'T know of anyother way. Maybe install a different language firmware althogether....
@@Mark10ProVideo yes, I was asking if you know of any language firmwares, and what do you mean by "initializing the camera" ?
esau is The Devil I think he means restarting the camera to factory settings..... perhaps?
Very helpful video - thank you! When I go into the Zhiyun app and create the two profiles - Cinematic and Action -- they don't save. When I go to use them the gimbal settings are back to default, and neither shows up as an option when I go into scene mode. Any idea as to what I might be doing wrong?
Do you tap "save"? In landscape mode the icon might nopt show up unless you scroll down a little from the settings tabs..
is there a lightweight audio cable on the market? as I'm using my rode videomic mounted directly to the ronin sc and simple jack cables are not so lightweight ones.
I don't know of any audio cables tha use the same technology as the FPV cables....sry....maybe there do exist cables like that, but I haven't seen them yet.
@@Mark10ProVideo I got that, thanks a lot! :) I will try to mount the cable on every axes of the ronin with some cable tie wrap. I hope that could help maybe.
TubeNoob what lenth of a fpv hdmi cable do you recommend? just getting confushed wheter is better to wrap the cable on the axes of the gimbal or just dont bother with it. As know I tied the cables on the gimball (jack, hdmi) but still not working well as the gimbal can get easily out of balance
@ I would not mount it to any axis..just let it be. Its the easiest for the motors. I used a 50cm cable.
TubeNoob Thanks a lot mate!
Crane plus or Ronin SC?
Do you need inception mode? Ronin SC
Good stuff dude just subscribe to your Channel very well explained very detailed top notch.
I'm about to buy the a 6400 I'm just getting into making videos I know you're high on those three sigma lenses.
Have you tried the Tameron 16 mm to 28 mm F 2.8 for the Sony ? Heard it super super good really sharp lightweight.
Thanks:) YOu mean the 17-28 f2.8 zoom I take it. I haven'T had a chance to test that one. But if you'Re not going to spend the dollars fopr the GM that is your only option, and from what I hear it is a very good one. I myself always rent the full frame lenses for my client work, and then get the GMs, because I can simply list it as expenses. If I was to get a full frame lens myself, I would rent the 17-28 and see whether the zoom range is ok for me to work with, or whether I simply need to have 35mm on the tele end, because I know I wonÄT care about 16mm over 17mm although that is a significant difference in viewing angel. For what I do it doesn't matter though. 28 to 35, that might actually matter....I would have to test that myself...17-28 is a full frame lens though.....
Or did you mean the new 16 50 f2.8 for apsc?
@@Mark10ProVideo thanks for your reply no I mean the 17 to 28mm F 2.8 tameron. It's a full frame lens but it works on Sony a 6100 6400 etc all the reviews I've watched are just it's an excellent excellent lens.
I'm considering that or the three sigma Prime's that you mentioned those get really good reviews to those are those are excellent lenses but I may prefer resume over three primes I'm not sure yet I made by my a 6400 and rent those lenses and try them all out before I buy them.
Keep up the good work man love the channel.
