📷 DIGITALFOTO Ares Z Axis Spring Gimbal Dual Handle: Compatible with ZHIYUN Crane 2, DJI Ronin S/SC, FEIYU AK2000/4000, Moza Air 2 and More! Review

Love it, it helped me create better footage but access to the controls and joystick was a problem. I decided to add a few touches and a grip for my phone to solve this common problem with the Ronin S.

Used for a promotional shoot and loved it. But the central part that holds the hand stopped screwing, and now the hand doesn't stay inside. Not too happy as I've only used this product once and it hasn't helped me anymore.

The big problem with gimbals is that you always get wavy movements when you walk and you need an extra axis to absorb steps. Those Z-axis knobs help fix what I could see when they popped out on the road quite easily. I would recommend trying these pens, I really liked them! :)

These grips replaced the standard static grips that came with my Moza Air Remote Gimbal and they work the same as the standard dual grips that originally came with my device. They help remove much of the up-and-down motion and smooth out some of the micro-jitter associated with fast walking/jogging while filming. You also see a slight benefit in normal walking, but no more than practicing proper 'ninja walking' technique. So it really depends on what you want to use it for. It helps more with…

Seems very solid. In general, the quality of the materials is good. As for design? I was expecting more attention to versatility. It is very much designed for one use case. For example, I would like to see additional mounting holes on the end of the handle so I can use the flex arms in other configurations. Pros: Does what it's supposed to do Cons: The mounting hole "almost" fits the Crane V2's motor mount handle. If the mounting circle had been a few mm wider it would have been just fantastic.

So far I've been using it with Ronin-SC for a week in Maldives. The results are better than I expected. There is virtually no vertical rocking, although there is an occasional but barely noticeable micro-jitter from the Ronin-SC when in use. However, I can't say for sure that without this product, Ronin wouldn't have those micro-jitters. And if I gently tilt the Ronin-SC without that z-axis, I get minimal vertical wobble as well. But it becomes too unwieldy to hold Ronin without it. The…

I've been using the DJI Ronin S for almost a year now with my Canon M50 as well as my Canon 1Dx Mark II. Love this combination. But with long shots, the hand gets very tired. So I thought about dual handlebars, but then I thought about the cheaper DigitalFoto spring grips for the same price but they look chunky; and I finally settled on Ares Z. I AM SO HAPPY I chose Ares Z; Build quality is the same as DJI Ronin S, VERY high quality! The Ares Z installs in seconds and turning the two knobs…
