I am absolutely blown away that you managed to put such a big lens on your camera. Maybe the camera is extremely heavy. In my case, with Canon EOS R and 24-105 RF lens, it bumps into the back motor, the same with Sony A7 III and Tamron 28-75. Only lenses working are small primes. Managed to get it working only with Fuji X-T3 / X-T4 with zoom 18-55 or 16-80.
Hi, thanks again for such a likable, warm, enthusiastic review. I appreciate your comment about having to fiddle with the controls regarding "jerkiness." Another reviewer pointed out how jerky the pan and tilt modes were and he was severely critical of the gimbal. I want the build quality of this gimbal over plastic. It looks as though the company really thought through to an amazing extent the engineering and form factor.
This is a great review man, and I appreciate all the hard work you did. I do have to say though, your cuts are a little distracting with those audio hiccups in between. Just make sure to edit those out and you should be golden. Best wishes on your future reviews.
Quick question. I have the DJI Ronin SC.. issue I'm having is if I use anything other than a prime lens. The eyepiece from my Canon hits the back of the gimbal which significantly takes away from the moves that I can do. Pretty much I have to keep my gimbal in the upright position. Do you know or have you tried or have you tested something of that size with something like the Canon 16-35mm?
I have a question I'm hoping you can answer can I use this gimbal with my Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ300 camera, so is my DSLR camera compatible with the FeiyuTech AK2000S DSLR Camera Stabilizer Handheld Video Gimbal fit for DSLR Mirrorless Camera 2.2 kg Payload!*
I have handycam Sony fdr ax-53 with a Multi socket and I would like to control the camera from the gimbal level (recording on / off, zoom). Will it be possible with the Sony USB control cable: Type C to Multi, which is included?
Very good camera gimbal,I use it with my sony a6300 and sony a7II,easy to use and gives stable shots.Fits my work needs.ak2000s handles a better payload than the g6 max and it has so many great features,like the "extra" handle for low shots.
My issue is not the weight it's the fact that my camera doesn't fit properly with any lens other than like a 35 mm prime lens. Not knowing that I bought the DJI Ronin SC and I can't use my 16-35mm without the eye piece hitting so NO LOW ANGLE SHOTS!!!
Hello , i bought also the FeiyuTech AK2000S advanced kit and today i installed the gimbal. I like the gimbal very much, but i have a question. I have a panasonic GH5s camaera and i want to connect the gimbal with the camera. But all the cables don't do anything. The gimbal wil not connect with the camera. The camera asked with what it must connect, a PC or a printer. I don't know what tot do. Can you help me. Do you now a solution? Thanks, Eric Holm
Hahaha. I wish we weren’t stuck in the 12th century BC too. Imperial units make no sense. Hopefully the US will start using metric sometime in the future!
I think that's very dependent on which camera you are using. I would recommend trial and error until you find something that works well for your camera and lens combo.
I love feiyutech brand and all models are super and i love G6MAX most but i heard AK2000S improved a lot compared to the old ones. The touch control screen is the most attractive point to me. Good service i have to say.
Thanks for this cool and objective review. Does anybody knows if it can fit Lumix FZ2000/2500 with it big/long lense. The AK2000 could do it well but is already a bit old ... AK2000C is too small, probably AK4500 can do the job but needs great biceps... The good thing, as demonstrated by Graham Houghton in 2 videos, is that all Lumix bridge cameras (although not listed as compatible) work great with Feiyu gimbals. You have to choose Panasonic and download the firmware for GH4. And the whole thing works.
I bought this ak200s but doesn't support the actual Canon 6D Mark II Firmware... I think is such as shame, because the supported firmware is very old...
Wonderful review, although I strongly recommend that reviewers purchase the equipment-the gold standard for reviewing products is ALWAYS to never accept renumeration (and yes, getting the product prior to reviewing it free is renumeration). Nevertheless, I appreciate the disclaimer. Thanks, again
I agree! Still, I never would have bought this specific gimbal just for review so I figure a review of a free product is better than no review at all 😀
How's it compare to WeeBill S?
Not sure! We’ve never tried the WeeBill S.

why do i keep hearing something that sounds like “hit” before you start talking?
Not sure!
@@forestchaput at 2:24 we hear it clearly
Haha yeah so distracting
Jeah, its such annoying!

I'm not sure. You would need to reach out to FeiyuTech and ask them.
Holy wow I’ve never been so drawn into a review! Thank you for the enthusiasm and the very clear review!
Thank you!
Does anyone how to change the language to English on the gimbal?
Hi, does it fit lumix G7 and all the functions on the gimbal and follow focus?
Not sure. You'd have to reach out to FeiyuTech and ask them.
Where do you get the battery replacement?
Can you mount a monitor to it?

it's more vivid than just open the box. very easy to understand.Thanks.
Great review! I’m doing research on this gimbal now. I appreciate your honesty on what you didn’t like about it!
Thank you!
It's compatible with Blac Magic Pocket cinema 4k?
I'm not sure. You'd have to reach out to FeiyuTech and ask them.
Does it fit Canon 250D camera?
No idea, you'd have to check the spec sheet.

I’m not sure on that one as I’ve never used the GH5. You should reach out to FeiyuTech and ask.
@@forestchaput Thanks for your reaction an d mabey till next time.
For anyone thats not stuck in 12th century BC, thats 2,2kg for FeiyuTech and 1,95kg on the Ronin.
Hahaha. I wish we weren’t stuck in the 12th century BC too. Imperial units make no sense. Hopefully the US will start using metric sometime in the future!
I especially like the large screen of AK2000s, which is very convenient to use.
Definitely!
Hi. Can you make a video bout best settings for this gimbal?
I think that's very dependent on which camera you are using. I would recommend trial and error until you find something that works well for your camera and lens combo.
Feiyutech website mentioned that AK2000s is not compatible with the 6D2. Is it fully functional?
Seemed functional to me although I didn't try all of the triggering features.
thank you so much for your review! The appearance of AK2000S is super classic, and I love the touch screen so much !
AK2000s looks so good
It is!
Love Feiyutech!touch screen made my works really easy,it's the best solution on gimbal operation!
Totally agree!
can you program the follow focus knob to control the tilt and panning?
Yep!
Forrest! Thanks buddy, just bought one of these. Hope you're well...
Thanks, you too!
im about to buy this gimball, so if you do a video explaining the customization of the ak2000s would be very usefull !!!
I will think about it.
Great stability, easy to use as a beginner.
Totally agree!

thanks for your honest review, this AK2000S is good while hopes for improvement on its App.
Glad it was helpful!

Sorry to hear that!
Thanks for the sharing, glad to hear that it can fitted with the Fuji camera.
You're welcome!

Lightweight, easily set up and seems to work well
Heck yes!
I bet the cost of DJI building the Ronin S is only
I wouldn't be surprised if you were correct. The FeiyuTech has spectacular build quality!
easy for cooperation, i like it
hit hit hit hit
Do you really need the app? All the other reviews don’t even mention the app.
You don’t need it. It is nice to have though! 👍
Ak2000S & SonyRX100 M4 is a total failure despite being in the list of compatible cameras.
Bummer!
ON / OFF DEAD
Bummer!
Can you mount a monitor to it?
