      Shooting at 60fps and slow it to 24fps massively improves stabilization. Also used zhiyun smooth q2 gimbal which is pocket sized

      It might sound simple, but when panning isolate and rotate at the hips. Then start your shot with your body twisted and let it naturally come back to the neutral position (facing forward with knees and hips squared-up). Often times untwisting is a smoother movement than twisting 'into' to movement (if that makes sense.)

    When locking exposure, focus is also locked. Meaning while taking dolly shots (moving in or out), the stationary subject may not always be in focus.

    This's a great instruction ever, practical and simply based on an economical reason. Many smartphone users might have overlooked the fact that there could make a thing worth out of what they have instead of buying an expensive gimbal.
    Your movement is literally smoother than using a gimbal.
    And the location in your demonstration video is The One Nimman in Chiangmai. Very nice place.
