    It's amazing, I am a very impressed with Crane M2 S. It is small and powerful but it seems to be able to handle fairly large cameras. The auto-calibration system takes about 10 seconds to finish the balancing. The build in LED light is great idea it helps with indoor and low light.

      I have a7c with tamron 17-28 as well. Does the footage are fully usable immediately with the gimbal or does it need extra post stabilization? How is the stabilization directly from the gimbal?

    Given that an iPhone 13 Pro with a Moment/SmallRig/BeastGrip case and ND filter is too much for my aging Smooth 4 and not really heavy enough for my Webill 2, which would be the logical choice, M2. M2s or M3?

    • @MarioSoMedia
      @MarioSoMedia  2 года назад +3

      I think either the M2s or M3. If you want a slightly smaller gimbal then the M2s.

    Good review, I like it. I bought this steadicam for my fujifilm x-s10 18-55. I balanced it well. But during operation, the motor of the pan axis is very hot. What can be done to keep the engine warm?

    Hi, thanks for sharing your thoughts.
    I've been looking at this gimbal mainly because the se size/weight and price cause I'm more on the photography side of the business.
    I plan on using it with the a7iii and the tamron 17-28 2.8 and would like to know if with this combo balanced I can use the gimbal pointing forward without it being blocked by any part of the camera...
    After this time do you still recommend it to use with the setup I've mentioned?
    Thanks!

    • @MarioSoMedia
      @MarioSoMedia  Год назад +2

      Yeah I had no issues with the a7iv and the same Tamron lens. You just can't do certain moves that strain the motor. But pointing straight is fine.

    • @DiogoReis
      @DiogoReis Год назад +1

      @MarioSoMedia I'm not planing on doing something more radical, it will be used on real estate and events only... I think I'll give it a chance and if I don't like it, I'll send it back...

    I guess I just have pretty bad luck, bought mine on Ebay (new) and it came out with a broken joystic base. After balancing and calibrating it with the 6 side calibration, I attempted to use it, but the horizon axis was rotated left like 10 degrees with the default position, so every time i double clicked the trigger it brough the camera to the rotated position off the horizon, when left alone, it started tilting the camera up slowly by itself. Had to send it to the factory for warranty, as the AH Ebay seller just ignored me, the shipping to the factory costed me 1/2 of the gimbal price because I'm outside of the US, and now the courier is having issues delivering it to the service center in CA. :( so frustrating.

  • @mattchan2897

    With the quick release are you able to connect the camera without re-balancing every time (presuming you keep the same lens used on initial balance)

    Great video for someone like me who is planning to buy my first ever gimbal! (Or the M2) And I am just wondering, if it can balance perfectly with a7iii+tamron17-28, it should be no problem with my a7c+sigma 28-70, which is even lighter than the a7iii set up right?

    • @MarioSoMedia
      @MarioSoMedia  2 года назад +1

      In theory yes. The Tamron is shorter I think so that might mess up the balance a bit. I would go for the M3 if you have a bit more budget
