ZHIYUN Crane Plus: 3-Axis Handheld Gimbal Stabilizer for DSLR and Mirrorless Cameras - Sony, Panasonic LUMIX, Nikon, Canon Compatible - Large Payload & Timelapse - Object Tracking - New Version: ZHIYUN Crane V2 Review

Excellent stabilization, runs quietly after I calibrate most of it except the last setting, when I plug the camera back in the calibration is quick and usually takes less than a minute. It took a while to calibrate initially, but everything was easy after that, assuming I didn't have to factory reset to put it in my carrying case. him on a folded blanket that I placed on the passenger seat of my van, camera already on it, ready to go. My only complaint is that there's no screen to tell me what…

I really want to love this device as the hardware, case and foam inserts feel premium. One of the main reasons I bought this was for the motion/time lapse tracking. However, I've found the Android app required for setup to be pretty much useless that I'm considering returning it. The app is called ZY Play in the App Store and has hundreds of bad reviews with an average rating of 2 stars. The app couldn't see the Crane over Bluetooth even though I gave it all permissions and spent an hour…

This was my first experience with a motorized gimbal, so I don't compare it to other offers. The package includes a Pelican hard case and everything else listed in the content part. My unit came with a gray Sony cable, not a black one (it doesn't match well). After using it with my Sony a6500 in combination with the wide-angle Sigma 16mm f/4 lens, I was very impressed with the smoothness of the footage. The tripod stand is a nice and welcome addition, it helps a lot with balancing the camera. I

It says DSLR but Canon R6 is too much for it. I had to use a lighter lens to balance it close to the gantry miss. With the phone up - try to follow me, then it's hard. The software is terrible. * Pairing was terrible. We finally got it working on one phone (S20) but not another (S10) *This stabilizer is not listed exactly. * It requires a specific orientation of the phone. If the phone is "upside down" then it is very confused.* Active "Follow Me" worked a bit but slightly lost its purpose. It…

I bought this because the in app auto tracking was shown in a promotional video. Technically it works. And it tracks what you draw pretty well, even at different distances. However, there is one big problem - the entire stabilizer is NOT designed to fix the phone on a cold shoe - it is too heavy. Even with the phone perfectly balanced, you get very little vertical movement before the motors stop working and it just kicks in and gives up. And of course the application crashes completely. And the

I'm just starting out in videography and this is my first stabilizer. I have to admit that setting up the gimbal was a bit tricky on my Sony A7R III with a Zeiss Batis 25/2 lens. Balancing the camera on a gimbal for the first time was a bit disappointing at first, even after watching some good YouTube videos. I have to say that the first balance was the hardest, and the future balance was actually a little fun. Personally, I've found it's easiest to place the Crane Plus on the ground with a…
