I’ve been told my whole life that the only way you can make it is to study for some degree and then work your 9-5 job, 5 days a week for some boss/company. Personally, I believe there’s more to life than that! My dream is to one day wake up my own boss working my own hours, but most importantly making money doing something I’m passionate about! And for me, that passion is photography and videography! Hands down I would love life if I was able to wake up and go do shoots for people, at parties, weddings, etc. but I don’t have any equipment apart from a camera, so when I make videos I just try and walk really slow so it doesn’t shake. I’d love to win the zhiyun crane plus because I know it will take my videography to the next level!!! I promise I’ll put it to good use and create some awesome content for people/ companies.
I have a Sony a5000 that I'm using to create car feature videos and videos on car events and shooting at various tracks like Road Atlanta for Gridlife or grassroots drifting on tight, little karting tracks. Cars are a big part of my life and I want to show everyone the inner community without car culture itself, because if you feel alone like I once did and like cars, going out to events will change you life. The community is very welcoming and supportive. Just a huge, diverse group of people that like all sorts of different Motorsports and cars that just want to talk to you for days about it. That's what I want to show everyone. I'm currently saving to buy an a7iii and a gymbal, so a gifted gymbal would be a lifesaver!
Fist off, I’d like to start out by saying how much I appreciate your videos & style. As we all know, there’s plenty of channels out there to follow but few I can actually sync with & enjoy. I always take something away from you posts & videos that help me grow in the art of videography. I work full time for an ambulance service pulling 48hr shifts waaaaaay too often. My goal is to continue growing my study/interest of videography. At how I have mules, horses & many other animals. On my downtime I hit the Wilderness packing in on mules. With that & many more interests & loads of amazing life adventures under my belt, I think it’s time to channel my love & energy into a RUclips channel. Gear reviews is on my map , as well. I am currently working with a Sony AX-100 to get my feet wet with. As well as a Atomos Shogun Inferno, Zoom H6, Shure & Rhode mics...etc. What’s left? I can’t make the kind of Magik I see in videos like yours without decent gimbals. I’m blown away how far they’ve come with today’s gimbals & am totally falling in love with the Zhiyun Cranes. Especially the Plus. Again, I appreciate all your hard work in your craft, here. Keep on keeping on. Until next time.... Smooth sailing O’Hally
Hi Lee! I work on a Communication department in a company and we always work with a small budget and because of that we can't afford a gimbal. Videos have always been a major part of our company, because it's one the best ways to broadcast information in a more appealing way with a cinematic look. And since we do a lot of videos, we would love to have more movement in them, allowing us to improve our storytelling. In the end, the gimbal would allow us to do more and better! Thank you
I would use this gimbal for my “at a glance series”. It’s where I go and film something that you’d see almost everyday. Like a forest, a park, a street corner. Something that you see, but you maybe have never opened your eyes to it. It’s a way to view what may be mundane in a more beautiful way.
Hey Zed Pro Media. Thanks for the tutorial. I'm waiting for my Crane Plus to arrive today so I can start shooting for my new YT channel. Cool to see that you're in the GTA as well (I'm in the next town over). Cheers, Michael
Currently been venturing out into the video world more and more often now. I currently have a 5dmk4 with a sigma 35 1.4 as my set up and would love a little more stability in my life! Good luck to everyone!
This is so perfect because I'm currently on a mission to add film making to my skill set! Actually have a couple of projects this year and this gimbal would be very very helpful!
I would love the crane plus since I shoot a lot of run and gun/vlog content and a stabilizer would really help for cinematic b-roll and improvement in quality
I'm a dog photographer based out of Milton but serving the Toronto area and Peel. 95% of what I do is volunteer based I work with Save Our Scruff and Fetch and Releash and I would use the gimbal to shoot vignettes on harder to adopt dogs showing their more playful side.
The reason I would love the crane plus is because it would really help me with creating smooth cinematic shots for my new youtube channel. As well I have a 6D2 and its rather a larger camera, so having the bigger crane would definitely ensure steady footage. Lastly im in the beginner stages of my youtube channel/ career and having to spend so much money on gear is very difficult. Winning this gimbal would help alleviate some of those expenses. Thanks! and keep doing what you're doing!
Found your channel from your 4,1 to 5,1 upgrade video. Thanks for that, it's been a great help. A great Gimbal that anyone would want in there kit. Someone's going to be very happy.
I would use the gimbal to make super rad videos of my island and to start getting some paid video gigs. Photography has been my dream career since I was a kid and I decided this year that I’m putting all my energy into making it happen. I survived a bout with cancer this past year and it definitely made me realize that life is too short to not do what you love and for me that’s taking photos and making videos!
I would use this gimbal to help create and tell my stories through film and video. Camera movement is such important part of storytelling and filmmaking, without it we couldn’t get certain points across. I Definitely feel like having a gimbal can help achieve these results.
I really enjoy making documentary style videos w/ smooth b roll, 'walk and talk' interviews, all the good stuff. The crane would definitely be put into good use getting all the buttery footage I need!
I am really new to this youtube and Vloging world, but I am super excited and motivated to create and inspire people, so this gimball could help me improve my videos and who knows maybe one day I will do some paid filming works where again this tool will be nice bonus! Good luck everyone.
I will like to use this for documenting my remaining times in Spain while I am studying here and use this as my primary video camera setup for future video editing and production! Thank you for this opportunity!
Summer is coming up and I want to make 3 short videos that captures each of my kids passions. This would be an awesome resource to film these. Thanks for all the videos, always helpful info. 👊
I've never used a crane and I am looking for something new to challenge my skills! All the research i've done has lead me to believe that the Crane coul further my skills in cinimatogrophy and Broll!
I would love this set up! I would love to begin making home videos for my family!!! I have 4 kids, and would love to make home movies with their years growing up. So they could appreciate them when they’re older!! I currently have a Nikon but I shoot portraits as often as I can.
Hey Lee, just wanted to thank you for the giveaway you're doing and the opportunity to participate. Also, I want to say that it's really appreciated that you did that thorough review on the Tilta G2X. Of all the reviewers that were sent the G2X, only you accurately mentioned that it has four modes and not just three as mentioned by everyone else. I could really use the Zhiyun Crane and as aspiring hybrid shooter using Sony. It would help me a lot for both learning to some more creative with real estate videography and for hyperlapses. It would be so useful to use a gimbal than the traditional move-shoot-move I currently have to do with a tripod and camera for hyperlapses! Thanks again Lee!
I started to film my friends special podcast episodes with iPhone x and DJI mobile 2 but ive been looking for a gimbal specially the Crane Plus for my Panasonic G9 since the price value is awsome. Keep on rocking!
would use this to get more clients! Being able to provide much more stable footage is something that opens you up to a much wider range of jobs to take on.
I’m nearing taking the leap of doing photography/video full time. The Crane Plus would be a sweet addition to my setup as I don’t have a gimbal yet. Thanks!
Hey man, like everyone I appreciate the opportunity to win this gimbal. I have taken photographs for years and only recently gotten into video. I'm still in the early stages of the creative process and don't know where it will take me. That's the part that excites me about using a gimbal. I've made the move from a Sony with IBIS to an XT2 w/o. The need for a gimbal is obvious for me and winning this give away would be a big deal. I have experienced some losses lately and have found comfort in the pictures and videos I've taken over the years of people I've met. I would continue to do the same just w more stability. Thanks again man. Love your work.
i’ve been shooting photography for years but recently moved to LA and would love to start shooting more video. the crane would be amazing for music videos 🙏🏼
I'd love to have one. I have a sony A6500, sony zeiss 24mm 1.8 and 55mm 1.8, Sony 85mm 1.8, and Rokinon 12mm 2.8. Plus Sony HVL-F45RM Flash and Comica Wireless Lav system. 4500 watts worth of stage lighting, the normal tripods, and backgrounds. The Zhiyun Crain Plus would definitely compliment this system.
Thanks man! This is the best video I found out there on how to balance this Crane Plus! I'm pretty new to filmmaking and just bought this gimbal but had no idea how it worked lol
Super dope! Id love to use this gimbal for a documentary I’m working on, interviewing former military and discussing the effects of ptsd and how that affects their everyday life.
I would use this to shoot traveling videos where I’ll be showing aspects of the area I’m traveling that people don’t initially take notice to and miss. I need this because currently I work with my iPhone 7 Plus and a DJI Osmo where I hope to show more of what I’m capable of with better equipment and transition my hobby into a profession.
Hey! I would love to use the Crane for travel videos. When Fuji added 4k video to the X-Pro2 I was super excited. But I went out and shot and the footage was so shaky i don't think I can use it. This crane would really help me get started making videos! Thanks man!
Im just learning how to make cinematic videos. I would use this to document trips and events for friends, family, and my local university. Oh and my two dogs of course.
I would really like the gimbal to do more travel videography. I really enjoy photography, but I have not tried much video since I don't have any stabilizers.
My D3400 is new and I'm a filmmaker. I don't have any stabilizers right now. Surely I'll use it for buttery smooth shots. Cinematic improvement there. Smooth pans, smooth zooms, great for action shots and quick phase films. For panning timelapses as well. Very handy for my work!! I hope I win! 🙌 Wish me luck!
How well does it deal with zoom lenses, let's say Fuji 10-24 or Sony 16-35? Can you balance it with the lens barrel extended halfway and the motors will compensate for the center of gravity difference on both ends of the zoom range? Thanks.
I would love using the crane as I'm just getting into video and it would add a ton of versitility to my wedding footage, and am also heading to Vietnam this summer and planning on starting a RUclips with the highlight of that trip being the opener.
I would love to try out some of the longer lenses on a gimbal. I am getting kind of tired of all the ultra-wide gimbal shots and am curious about how something like an 85mm would behave on a gimbal. Also, I am hoping to get into filming dance choreographies and having a gimbal would help a lot with that (imitating Tim Milgram's videos).
Hey Zed, I just want to thank you for this giveaway. I'm sure every one of your fans here has their own reasons for wanting this gimbal and we just really appreciate this opportunity. I really hope I win this because I hope to improve the quality of my videos by capturing smooth cinematic shots. I'm really passionate about creating film and videos. 🎥🎥🎥 I really hope to make filmmaking a source of income in the future, but as of right now I don't have fancy types of equipment like stabilizers and gimbals. Winning this Zhiyun Crane would be such a blessing. I hope I win :) edit: Goodluck to everyone who entered!
For the zhuyin crane plus I would use this gimbal to add a bit of production value to my music videos my Panasonic g85 I cant rely too much on it onboard stabilization too much
I would use the gimbal to improve my videos. I'm on a mission to visit all national parks here in the USA and with that gimbal I could put out really solid films for my audience.
My plan for this gimbal is to use it to film cars since I take pictures and go to car shows and meets all the time. I want to shift from photography into cinematography and possibly do both! Thank you for the opportunity, I've been stuck choosing between this gimbal and the Moza Air
I’d like to use the gimbal with the a7iii to start doing videos for clients in the food/hospitality industry. Would definitely take this into a lot of kitchens. I’ve worked for several years doing photography for clients in Los Angeles, but really want to get into video and production.
1- done 2- done 3- i had Nikon cameras for last 10 years, great photo camera but zero support on video. I just (25 April) switched to Sony and can't stop filming videos, but 1 issue, videos is not stable, even with ibis. I would use use this gimbal to practice more in video to improve my image quality, planing to start vlogging and tech review channel :)
I’m looking to up my home video game. If I can master that I’d like to do some more when I go fishing. I’ve been using my drone but want to add a different angle. Thanks
Hey, just got an a6300 with 16-70 which I saved for for 2 years and would love to get a gimball too someday, hope the luck shines for me :) Love your videos!
wow.. love to have one of those. (dream....) but i think my cam is too old for it (nikon D7100+50mm). super love the shots made with it. i'm turning 50 this year (shaky hands) so this will be super helpful for me. dream dream dream.... when i feel blue....
Thank you for the video I just got the zhiyun crane plus for my sony a6300 using a 18 to 105 lens. This video was detailed on how to the balance the camera. Keep doing good videos man
I would love to use this gimbal for my small documentaries, as my old old gimbal broke down. This new gimbal would be an incredible and valuable piece of gear to add to my small setup as this tool would allow me to tell my stories in more creative ways with the roll mode feature. Thanks Lee!
My little girl turned 1 year someone days ago and starts running around. The crane plus would be cool to balance my ultra wide angle setup I am using to when running infront of her in a low angle.
Hey Zed. I love to think of the film industry as a way to change a person's perspective on how they see things in life. I think that's why there's so much conflict in the world, because no one knows each other's story/perspective. I would love to have the responsibility of changing people's perceptions by influencing their perspective through film. I'd love to use this gimbal as a way to gain more experience; to finally be the one who changed the world's perception.
I’ve been told my whole life that the only way you can make it is to study for some degree and then work your 9-5 job, 5 days a week for some boss/company.

Bro, you did one hell of a job on the setup! Perfect! There’s power in simplicity.

Took me 10 minutes to set my gimbal up after watching this video. Good looks bro! you locked me in for another gig!
Dope!
I really enjoy making documentary style videos w/ smooth b roll, 'walk and talk' interviews, all the good stuff. The crane would definitely be put into good use getting all the buttery footage I need!
OMG! If i had this gimbal, I would use it to make CRAZY cinematic sequences. So pumped and excited
Just recently moved to Miami from Puerto Rico, and been thinking about starting up my own vlog, the crane would really come in handy.
I am really new to this youtube and Vloging world, but I am super excited and motivated to create and inspire people, so this gimball could help me improve my videos and who knows maybe one day I will do some paid filming works where again this tool will be nice bonus! Good luck everyone.
I would use this gymbal for pan shots/steady shots in filmmaking, for filming sports, or just videography in general.
I will like to use this for documenting my remaining times in Spain while I am studying here and use this as my primary video camera setup for future video editing and production! Thank you for this opportunity!

I’ve been stuck on how to balance the pan motor properly with Crane Plus/A7iii ugh
I would love to use a gimbal to add some production value on more narrative or docu-style videos I'm making.
I would love Zhiyun Crane Plus to make difference on my art, love the smoothness of the gimbal, wish I own one before I die
Summer is coming up and I want to make 3 short videos that captures each of my kids passions. This would be an awesome resource to film these. Thanks for all the videos, always helpful info. 👊
I've never used a crane and I am looking for something new to challenge my skills! All the research i've done has lead me to believe that the Crane coul further my skills in cinimatogrophy and Broll!

I would use the crane plus to make smooth videos while I go hiking in the Alps. The crane plus would be great because it's not too bulky.
would use this to get more clients! Being able to provide much more stable footage is something that opens you up to a much wider range of jobs to take on.
I’m nearing taking the leap of doing photography/video full time. The Crane Plus would be a sweet addition to my setup as I don’t have a gimbal yet. Thanks!
This is so helpful thank you! x
Been using my xt2 mainly for photography and I want to step my video game with the new 4.0 firmware. A gimbal would also help.
Hey man, like everyone I appreciate the opportunity to win this gimbal. I have taken photographs for years and only recently gotten into video.

i’ve been shooting photography for years but recently moved to LA and would love to start shooting more video. the crane would be amazing for music videos 🙏🏼
I would love to use it to make videos which requires lots of movement, for wedding shoots and experimental stuff as well.
I’d use the Crane Plus to shoot my summer video project: Summer at 26 - capturing my summer from travel to bonfires to party’s to chill nights!
I'd love to have one. I have a sony A6500, sony zeiss 24mm 1.8 and 55mm 1.8, Sony 85mm 1.8, and Rokinon 12mm 2.8. Plus Sony HVL-F45RM Flash and Comica Wireless Lav system. 4500 watts worth of stage lighting, the normal tripods, and backgrounds. The Zhiyun Crain Plus would definitely compliment this system.
Great review. I would love to have this zhiyun crane plus bcoz I am now starting learn and practice film making.
Hi Lee, have not tried much video, but with this gimbal it would give a good reason to do more video with my X-T2. Enjoy your quality videos !
Thanks man! This is the best video I found out there on how to balance this Crane Plus! I'm pretty new to filmmaking and just bought this gimbal but had no idea how it worked lol
Would use it for shooting videos of agriculture related items. Farmers are the most underappreciated people on the planet. A7 II and XT2.
Thanks for the tips. I'm having fun using mines
Hey Zed! I will use the gimbal to make super cinematic shots and create a short film.hopefully building up to a full length film
Super dope! Id love to use this gimbal for a documentary I’m working on, interviewing former military and discussing the effects of ptsd and how that affects their everyday life.
Also my name is daniel rainwater. In case it was confusing with Instagram lol
I would use this to shoot traveling videos where I’ll be showing aspects of the area I’m traveling that people don’t initially take notice to and miss. I need this because currently I work with my iPhone 7 Plus and a DJI Osmo where I hope to show more of what I’m capable of with better equipment and transition my hobby into a profession.
I’d love to use this rig to document the (disappearing) nature here in SW Florida...
Would love one of these, perfect for family vids. What focus mode do you put the camera in?
Would use it to step up my travel vids. Right now I'm shooting on a gopro hero and the x-pro2
Hey! I would love to use the Crane for travel videos. When Fuji added 4k video to the X-Pro2 I was super excited. But I went out and shot and the footage was so shaky i don't think I can use it. This crane would really help me get started making videos! Thanks man!
I do photography as a hobby and looking to get into video. This gimbal would be a cool new tool to learn with.
Wow! It is so steady, I would use it for my own music videos and some dope camera movements !
Im just learning how to make cinematic videos. I would use this to document trips and events for friends, family, and my local university. Oh and my two dogs of course.
I would really like the gimbal to do more travel videography. I really enjoy photography, but I have not tried much video since I don't have any stabilizers.

Donna Horn sup Donna!
I would use this gimbal in an upcoming short film I’m working on with my brother to add more cinematic and dynamic shots!
For the zhuyin crane plus I would use this gimbal to add a bit of production value to my music videos my Panasonic g85 I cant rely too much on it onboard stabilization too much
Great video as always.
Having Crane Plus would be great for developing the video production further and capturing life in that buttery smoothness!
Thanks. Not only a good intro' to the Crane + I just bought but also with my XH1.
I would use the gimbal to improve my videos. I'm on a mission to visit all national parks here in the USA and with that gimbal I could put out really solid films for my audience.
My plan for this gimbal is to use it to film cars since I take pictures and go to car shows and meets all the time. I want to shift from photography into cinematography and possibly do both! Thank you for the opportunity, I've been stuck choosing between this gimbal and the Moza Air
Thank you so much! Specially for showing the balancing so detailed. That helped me a lot and make my gimbal work properly!
I would use the gimbal for video work pairing it with my Fuji xt2 and 16mm f/1.4 shooting events and cine shots of models and cosplayers.
I love zhiyun crane plus because its design and gamble
I want this camera..😀
Picking up one of these used, later today - thank you so much for this! Subscribed 🙏🏽
Documentaries! That long battery life would help with run-n-gun filmmaking as well as astro-timelapses. That's the best way I see to use the gimbal
I would use the Zhiyun Crane Plus to use with my canon t5 to have stable footage for vlogs and getting nice shots for future video production.
I’d like to use the gimbal with the a7iii to start doing videos for clients in the food/hospitality industry. Would definitely take this into a lot of kitchens. I’ve worked for several years doing photography for clients in Los Angeles, but really want to get into video and production.

3- i had Nikon cameras for last 10 years, great photo camera but zero support on video. I just (25 April) switched to Sony and can't stop filming videos, but 1 issue, videos is not stable, even with ibis. I would use use this gimbal to practice more in video to improve my image quality, planing to start vlogging and tech review channel :)
Best video for the crane really appreciate it
Thank you so much!!! I was struggling with this for a while and you solved the whole thing!!!
I'd use it for stabilized shots of walk through tours of areas I visit on the Sony a6500.
I’m producing a short film with a dancer. A lot of quick movements that need steady tracking. This would be a wonderful addition to use.
I’m looking to up my home video game. If I can master that I’d like to do some more when I go fishing. I’ve been using my drone but want to add a different angle. Thanks
Great video, I would use to start using all kind off video, but primarily I would use to shoot b-roll
Hey, just got an a6300 with 16-70 which I saved for for 2 years and would love to get a gimball too someday, hope the luck shines for me :) Love your videos!
I would like to use it with my Fuji XT2 and 16mm to do events. Since handheld isn't great.
I would use the gimbal to stabilize some tight shots and to follow my subjects and have that be waaay smoother
Awesome video! Would love to use this to film my car youtube videos with my 5dmk3 vs using my gopro with a the gopro grip. Keep up the great work!
wow.. love to have one of those. (dream....) but i think my cam is too old for it (nikon D7100+50mm). super love the shots made with it. i'm turning 50 this year (shaky hands) so this will be super helpful for me. dream dream dream.... when i feel blue....
Hey may I know if nikon d7000 is compatible with zhiyun crane plus?
Thank you for the video I just got the zhiyun crane plus for my sony a6300 using a 18 to 105 lens. This video was detailed on how to the balance the camera. Keep doing good videos man
I would love to use this gimbal for my small documentaries, as my old old gimbal broke down. This new gimbal would be an incredible and valuable piece of gear to add to my small setup as this tool would allow me to tell my stories in more creative ways with the roll mode feature.
Thanks Lee!
My little girl turned 1 year someone days ago and starts running around. The crane plus would be cool to balance my ultra wide angle setup I am using to when running infront of her in a low angle.
I would love to use this for various films I make. Mainly for the CrossFit competitions I film.
I would love this gimbal to step up my filming for my growing channel!
I'm currently doing youth baseball and local festivals and trying to expand photo gigs by adding video as an option.
Hey Zed.
I love to think of the film industry as a way to change a person's perspective on how they see things in life. I think that's why there's so much conflict in the world, because no one knows each other's story/perspective.
I would love to have the responsibility of changing people's perceptions by influencing their perspective through film.
I'd love to use this gimbal as a way to gain more experience; to finally be the one who changed the world's perception.
Do you connect the gimbal to anything like the camera? I see that there are two USB ports on it.
I am getting into wedding videographer. The gimbals I've tried really help out.
