I got myself the Gimbel system from Dji for smartphones, the dji Osmo, and I'm still really impressed by the smothing. It's amazing which job these gimbels performed. The only bad thing on the version from Dji is the prise ond that the app isn't supporting 4k video resolution. I wrote the the support and the told my that they are going to add this feature. I hope this update will be aviable soon. However, I really like the system and I would advise it to anyone who is interessted in good video shots.
ZHIYUN first comes up with the suffix of “LAB” for the flagship gimbals in ZHIYUN product series. Gimbals tagged with “LAB” are of the best configurations in their own series, representing the cutting-edge innovation from ZHIYUN. www.zhiyun-tech.com/en
404 weird.. I had quite the opposite idea of them.. I was expecting close to 500-600 for the camera one and 400~ for the smartphone one. and if they were in 1k$ I wouldn't be that much suprised..
ABsolutely not... if you are in the market of buying one of these, you should know what a handheld shot looks like... At no point did I think that comparison is necessary...
It's like saying to someone who made a video comparing two different edit softwares, let's say Avid vs Final CUt Pro X, "why didn't you do a comparison with Adobe Premier?". The answer is, because it was a comparison between two bits of software, not ALL of the software... You could equally ask, why didn't DIY perks do a comparison with a traditional steadicam or a motorised slider, or a mini jib, A DJI Ronin or a Movi, or a drone for that matter... The answer to your question, if you want to know the difference between handheld and a lightweight camera gimbal, is that handheld footage would look extremely shaky and awful in comparison. It would also entirely rely on the ability of the camera operator to make smooth movements and that would not be comparing two pieces of tech.
Nice informative video. No doubt you are aware of this, but for those who don't, there are also 4 axis gimbals that will compensate for the up and down motion of walking/jogging, to a certain degree. There are already videos for DIY gimbals out there, but I'd definitely like to see your take on creating one @DIY Perks. Your projects generally have a more aesthetically pleasing look than a lot of other DIY RUclips videos do. Making them a better option for those that still want to have professional looking projects.
Hey there! i'm quite a fan of your show, and trust me, it really is a show what you're doing on your channel. INTERESTING THING is.. the first video of you NOT building a DIY project is actually something i was ALWAYS interested in - Small camera and phone gimbals. Boy am i glad you made this one, specifficaly for the fact that you're videos are unique in their polish and profesionality.
The Smooth Q looks like such a great stabilizer for the price - I just added this to my cart. Thanks for the review and for the demo. Really exciting to see innovative yet affordable equipment and technology available for non-professional video makers. :-)
Can't believe I finally found someone English in the UK doing tutorials must have been looking in the wrong places. Thank you so much now J know what a Gimbal is and I want one!! 🤣😁
Second time I watch this video. I also used the Smooth Q for a while for vlogging and have to say it worked amazingly! I do notice though that you didn't clean your lense before filming. Many pictures get ruined because phonelenses aren't being cleaned enough.. It looks overexposed and foggy sometimes.
On eBay you get these cheap gimbles that attach to drones, they are normally for GoPros etc, but how about you buy one and modify to be used in a hand held manner? I'm sure you could make something along these lines to come up with a basic yet somewhat useful gimble! Thumbs up so he sees this :)
my Zhiyun Rider for the Gopro (Hero 4 Black) works well, but you'll want some panasonic batteries for it as the chinesium ones dont last as advertised, stiil quite a bit longer than a Gopro internal battery when recording 4K, it does come with a small adapter cable where you can plug your Gopro into the arm of the gimbal and use the gimbal batteries to also power the Gopro. All I really need to do is extend the arms a bit so I can mount the Gopro with the larger battery (nearly the same size!). I have noticed the heading lock does have some drift, about 1-2 deg per 10 seconds.
The smooth q also fits GoPro and other action cams. Simply rotate into portrait mode, fit GoPro, if doing any action sports put a couple rubber bands around it in case you crash, triple tap for selfie mode and voila... GoPro is pointing away from you and no gimbal parts are visible in the footage!
$140 for Smartphone and $670 for full sized models for those that don't care to click the link. I know camera equipment of any kind is usually expensive. the smartphone model seems pretty reasonably priced though. However, I would argue that if you're going to shell out that much money for the full sized one, you may as well gear up with a full sized Steadicam.

That Sony autofocus is just crazy quick! Really good video, very nice cinematography, I like it a lot
Very honest review, I am currently looking to get a Dji Oslo mobile for my iPhone 6s Plus, which I have filmic app for native camera which is great, this is to improve my Bushcraft outdoors vids. So I found your vid quite helpful. So thank you.
never heard of this gadget before am running a mobile phone showroom a guy came to ma shop and asked me for this i told him i dont have what youre asking for he laughed at me and left the place i kinda felt awkward at that moment and then i endup here came here just to learn have a nice day
I'm not a big photography and video enthusiast but I think I might get the smaller smartphone one since it's not to expensive and it can be fun to take some videos while traveling.
Osmo has been highly recommended by a pro I know personally, but Zhiyun seems to have better traction with pro-sumers, and it looks pretty good. Like the review.
2 years later I still suck at setting up the gimbal, neeed to balance first so it doesn’t work if I saw something at the moment and don’t have the time set up, I normally use a selfie stand that can stand and record for in place stuff.
I just absolutely love your projects and reviews!!!! I feel that IF you had talked a little about battery life that could have been a big deciding factor.
i was thinking about a hack that you can do. unfortunately i dont have the crane so i cant try this myself but maybe you can try it and make a video out of it. as you may know most of the selfie sticks have a quarter inch female down at the bottom (opposite side from where the phone goes). You can use that part to attach some weight and open the stick 1/3rd of the maximum. then you can rotate the head of the stick 90 degrees and attach the bottom of the crane to that part (the gimbal will be inverted and the camera should be close to the ground). this way you introduce a briefcase mode where you are holding the stick and in theory this should reduce micro jitters and increase actual flying time with added comfort. i really hope you try this and post your findings. great videos, keep the good work cheers
Well, it's not my usual, and nor will it be. I accepted the 'review samples' in return for my opinions on them (in a video), and as I really wanted to try them out I thought it was a good deal. Normal content will now resume, though I'm always up for colabs - would have to be DIY based though!
it would be great though if you do a collab with DSLR guide, he makes a lot of video guide for budget film maker, im sure when you and him discussed this you guys will come out with something brilliant, just like your diy camera slider thanks for responding btw
These look good. However, I use a handheld Gimbal whe nat work. It seems to be great. I use the DJI Osmo, it comes with the 4K camera, and is a nice and portable size in a great case. Its a similar price to the larger of the ones shown here, but comes with the camera too.
Step 1: Buy a chicken
Step 2: Ducktape camera on head

Video quality was amazing!
Cheers
except for the high pitch at the start of the video.
Yeah it really is! The camera coupled with the gimbal really does create a professional looking video.
Anyone know what is the camera that is used to shoot this video? Even at 720p or lower it is still pretty good!
ChristerJohn I wanna know too! It looks great!
Camera on the crane is Fuji XT-2
Love the way you talk no exaggerations. Whats the most important is the review and the visual explanations
Your video and audio quality is always on point. Great job
that's it
elago Do you know what camera he’s using?

Why i am watching this , i dont even own a camera 😞
Because gimbals look sick in action
what a pathetic brain yoy have
xD
Cause you like technology
LordZharfan - PUBGM same
Me: Boy these Gymbal are nice! I think I'm gonna buy one!
*klicks link. looks at price*
Me: I think i stay with my shaky videos
same :(
Yep, same here :-(
404 weird.. I had quite the opposite idea of them..
I was expecting close to 500-600 for the camera one and 400~ for the smartphone one. and if they were in 1k$ I wouldn't be that much suprised..
404 wow, I just checked the bigger version and I was spot on with the pricing ;)
*looks at the smaller one pricing* Its ok.. wonder what the big one cost.... Holy shit! I could buy a new camera for that price.
You should have showed handheld shots vs shots with the gimball
ABsolutely not... if you are in the market of buying one of these, you should know what a handheld shot looks like... At no point did I think that comparison is necessary...
Michael Lebor why? Maybe some people know what it looks like, but some of his viewers dont. So whats your problem about that.
It's like saying to someone who made a video comparing two different edit softwares, let's say Avid vs Final CUt Pro X, "why didn't you do a comparison with Adobe Premier?".

Who can't distinguish the difference?
Stevie Wonder?
wow your video look so clear and sharp, almost 3D like
I wait in so much excitement for a new video to come out... even if they take a long time, the amazing overall quality makes up for it :)
I have the Zhiyun... i got a monopod for it as an extension pole.... total game changer, you can truly do anything now with that set up.
Thanks! I was just wondering about this very topic last Saturday... I really like your vids, bro.
Amazingly steady that gimbal.
Helo
@@aw1lt piss off
Whoever that's a good Heart just wish I could be given a camera
The tree at 2:26 looks like one of those thumping trees of Harry Potter lol
True!

Yes, I may look into it at some point! Not much motivation now though, hehe. Still, no doubt I'll get around to it eventually.
I am always astonished by the quality of your video's! I will hang around here until 10m subs! Nice job, matt
Hey there! i'm quite a fan of your show, and trust me, it really is a show what you're doing on your channel.

Thx for the disclosure. This is very much appreciated in a time where not everyone is doing it, even though it's mandatory.
has anyone told you, "you're a champ"? well, you're a champ. one of my favourites to watch on RUclips

Good video, it was like magic when the camera stood still and you rotated the stick making it look like the camera was floating.
Still waiting for the day you put out a video for a DIY gimbal, an S or Z level difficulty but still DIY. I'd watch the hell out of it.
Awesome review. After watching this I finally pulled the trigger and placed an order for one just now to help with filming better.
Just ordered the smartphone one. $45. Crazy good price. Excited to try it out. It will definitely improve my Channel’s video quality!!!
Wow, I remember when you had like 5K subs. Well done my friend.
Cheers matey!
Same :D
1:43 Reminds me of that Mercedes Ad with the hypnotised chicken.
Just wow 😮that’s my Christmas wishlist 😊
Great video, I have the Smooth Q and its great! was nice to see how the crane works too ☺️
Second time I watch this video.
I also used the Smooth Q for a while for vlogging and have to say it worked amazingly!
I do notice though that you didn't clean your lense before filming. Many pictures get ruined because phonelenses aren't being cleaned enough.. It looks overexposed and foggy sometimes.
It’s 3 am, i have a paper due tomorrow, and i do not own a camera.
Image in this video is so bright & crystal clear. Amazing.
the last selfie shot was incredible and crisp af
I would like a follow up with a diy handle for two handed operation, if you end up making one 😊
me also
there is such option aviable from manufacturer for some extra money
even nokia 3310 will take great shots in where you live...
3310 has no camera...
Koning Willem-Alexander no shit!
@@tomwes8390 The new one has a camera.
Met a dude named Gim Bal once. He was a very steady guy.
Expecting a diy gimble, you are an inspiration sir !!!
Very useful, professional video, i can see why manufacturers like you! As a pro audio guy I subscribed immediately!
I'm just appreciating the quality of the camera you use to shoot this video 😂
On eBay you get these cheap gimbles that attach to drones, they are normally for GoPros etc, but how about you buy one and modify to be used in a hand held manner?

Thumbs up so he sees this :)
great review

Chicken nugget
He became sellout, shame!
this if connected with the camera and a software to follow objects would be mindblowing
thinking of getting this. Thank u for a very pleasing review
If I had your voice and English accent, I would never shut up. Great review.
Yoooo! That sharpness and depth of field!! Thought you were in front of a greenscreen for some of those shots.
What camera were you using for this video? Just curious! Thanks! 😁
why he never answers
Thanks for posting this. My nephew uses the smaller one for a GoPro. I'd like one for my Panasonic camcorder.
Maybe you can try feiyutech a1000, I thought is fine.
my Zhiyun Rider for the Gopro (Hero 4 Black) works well, but you'll want some panasonic batteries for it as the chinesium ones dont last as advertised, stiil quite a bit longer than a Gopro internal battery when recording 4K, it does come with a small adapter cable where you can plug your Gopro into the arm of the gimbal and use the gimbal batteries to also power the Gopro.

never heard of this gadget before
am running a mobile phone showroom
a guy came to ma shop and asked me for this
i told him i dont have what youre asking for
he laughed at me and left the place
i kinda felt awkward at that moment
and then i endup here
came here just to learn
have a nice day
great video, and it was just on time. I was very curious about these. cheers.
The color correction looks awesome
Thank you for sharing this information. Watching all the way from Vanuatu 😃😁👍🔥🔥🇻🇺🇻🇺🇻🇺
This thing is amazing! :D
Awesome video, I loved it, keep it up :)
Wow I've been looking for a gimbal for my phone and will definitely pick up the smooth q when I get a chance.
How to zoom and change focus in the camera fitted in the gimbel
Great video review. Thanks for also disclosing that you received these items courtesy of the manufacturer.
Great video. I wanted to buy the Zhiyun Smooth Q but I had doubt about the working. Thanks you all is clear. Thanks a lot.
Your image quality was stellar.
I'm not a big photography and video enthusiast but I think I might get the smaller smartphone one since it's not to expensive and it can be fun to take some videos while traveling.
I just bought mine and I’m loving it!!
Very details 🙂 i love it 👍👍👍👏
hello thank you so much for sharing!!! i wonder what camera are you using cause the quality of your video is amazing!
You should put advert disclaimer above the "show more" line and also say it in the start of the video instead of the end.
But it isn't an advert. The disclaimer even says so.
It has nothing to do with it. He is required to disclose the fact, that his is a free sample, the way i stated.
maybe make a DIY easy rig for the camera gimble. im not sure how it would attach to the gimble, but it can help with the bobbing effect.
Got it for free? Well, you definitely deserve it with all your exceptional work and efforts. Cheers! S
A thumbs up because you got me crackling with your running
That Fujifilm XT-2, My god that dynamic range
I KNOW RIGHT!!!
hi..what camera you use to shoot this video?.. the video quality is superbbb
I like how you shot this video in the Windows XP wallpaper
Osmo has been highly recommended by a pro I know personally, but Zhiyun seems to have better traction with pro-sumers, and it looks pretty good. Like the review.
active track....and motion timelapse is also really cool features
DIY Gimbal incoming? PLEASE! :D
Great videos :)

The best shot was the last one with u and the yellow stuff in the back haha
It's been a long time seen you. However, Your uploads are great. Keep it up
I just subscribed! 🤗 Your channel looks really interesting!
Your presentation is awesome. Full of information & quality content.
They both look like some awesome tools to have in the arsenal!!!
Very informative review thanks for sharing looking forward for more videos
wow didn't expect this kind of content from you, would you consider for a collab with DSLR guide, that would be fricking awesome

Very helpful video! Thank you :) I'm planning to get a gimbal soon for my future vlog videos!
Wow the location where you shot is very nice. Wish i could go there some day.
Very nice review. A big help, thanks.
These look good. However, I use a handheld Gimbal whe nat work. It seems to be great. I use the DJI Osmo, it comes with the 4K camera, and is a nice and portable size in a great case. Its a similar price to the larger of the ones shown here, but comes with the camera too.
Please make a low-budget stabilizer! Love your videos!
Loving the approach you took with this review!
