Review on Stabilizer Hohem ISteady V2 Smartphone by Matthew Augustin

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Best phone gimble I've ever seen

First thoughts: I thought I would quickly get confused with the manual, the app, the tutorial, the gesture memorization and the Pressing the button for which function. However, after a little practice, I felt a lot more comfortable and started to realize how much more I can do with my videos now. Usage: Phenomenal Stabilization. This is intuitive, and I even forgot about it and found that when I shoot and walk, I move normally. The time lapse is great and I'm always looking for more locations to film more of it. Everything works as it should and I'm still sometimes surprised to see the result. Response is quick and intuitive. When you hold the gimble to follow ground movement or film your walk, it will automatically turn and reorient itself to do so. Face and subject tracking is very accurate. The battery life is excellent. I used the gimble a lot in the first two days I had it and it was still about 70% charged. currently. I strongly recommend everyone to do this. I also have a microphone receiver, very small and light, that plugs into my phone's Lightning port. It was really important for the audio part and Gimble had no problem with that. I just had to rebalance the phone. Bottom line: if you're even thinking about getting one of these, I'd advise you to pay a bit more and go for this one. It's worth it. I had a bit of trouble locking it in place after use and it took me a few tries to get the hang of it, but that was my only issue. To use it, just be nice to him by balancing your phone properly so you don't overload it with a stick of gum like you should. Oh, and take the case off your phone. Don't worry, the gimbal will hold it securely and it won't fall off. Great job hom!
