Switching from Phone Stabilization and Manual Stabilization to Presentation Video

I've tried stabilizers that use weights, but this gave me the user experience or wow factor I wanted when working with photos and videos. This stabilizer offers professional and smooth video recording. This 3-axis camera stabilizer is a specially designed gimbal of corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy construction, which offers a much stronger structure than a plastic-based gimbal. It is very light and maneuverable as it weighs around 3.5 pounds. The product page provides an overview of camera compatibility, but if you visit Feiyu's technical website, you'll find a comprehensive list of features available when using any of the four included features. Wired or WiFi connection. I use Sony ICLE a6000 and have different lenses. My Goto video lens is a large PZ 18-105 lens with a motorized zoom knob. After reading the manual, other videographers in my social media groups suggested I watch a video on how to calibrate the gimbal with the camera and lens. I get some looks and attention when using this gimbal for photo shoots or outdoor events. The large black grip with an additional shorter 45 degree grip along with the cage under the camera makes it different from hand held gimbal gimbals or tripods with added grip. I'll then show off a bit when using one of the awesome initial Spin modes or Shadow Hunter, then stop and put it down by flipping the foldable lower monopod.
