For anyone not using a Sony camera, the alternative is ‘Mercalli pRoDAD’ and if you’re using a BMPCC then you have a gyro stabilisation built into Davinci Resolve free and studio
yep，prodad is amazing
Do you know if you film BRAW with the Lumix S5 would it have the data to use in DaVinci for stabilization?
@@bradleyjpaolucci I honestly don’t know. You’ll have to test it 😅 but I am also assuming that you should be able to use the other stabilising options within davinci resolve
@@bradleyjpaolucci Don't think so. The gyro data comes from the camera itself. The pocket cameras "burn" it into the video file's metadata. Davinci reads it.
You should look for gyroflow
I hate that it downgrades your exports from 10bit to 8bit unless you upgrade to catalyst prepare 😑
And if u already use a 8bit cmaera , does it downgrade ?
@@neuj1 no
What about the 8bit limitation exporting out of Catalyst B? You forgot to mention that, and that’s actually the biggest dealbreaker for most of us who are serious about color grading our footage
That is a huge dealbreaker! Might as well better choose “active” stabilization then in camera. Which also uses the gyro data correct?
Yeah that’s because he played around with catalyst for a few minutes and decided he was an expert. Imagine not even mentioning 8bit as well as the availability of catalyst browse in adobe premiere as a plug in!
and do you see difference of look in 8 or 10-bit video?
In 10-bit RAW it is, but in video... do you?
@@Fessoid there’s a HUGE difference between 8bit and 10bit Video! Pro’s who grade their footage care about that. But if you don’t grade your footage and are happy with whatever comes out of your camera then you don’t need to worry about it.
@@Fessoid You won’t notice a huge difference straight of the camera. But when you do a lot of correction / grading, it’s a world of a difference. 10-bit has so much more color data. After correcting / grading you can definitely tell the difference between 8-bit and 10-bit..
I think the worst part about this is that when cropping so much in post the quality will suffer a lot.
True, it’s inconvenient. It would only be useful when you have the resolution to back it up like shooting in 4k or 6k then cropping in wouldn’t be bad. But then at that point you’d have an expensive enough camera to spend enough to buy a gimbal anyway.
You need to analyze first then you can adjust it as you like and export it. We can also add a bit of motion blur later on if that’s the case. To me I can see the amount of stabilization necessary and added before exporting it. Catalyst browse is game changer. But, it does not replace a gimbal. Actually as you said, it’s a complement to the gimbal.
How do you add a motion blur in catalyst browse??
It also works with the ZV-1 as I have one and catalyst works well however it's *SO* slow. It needs GPU acceleration or even use all cores to their max on a machine.
Hey henbu sick video, quick question tho! When shooting car content, are you still using 1/250th shutter speed? and does catalyst browse look good when paired with a gimble or does it create that "floaty look"? Also what if you are shooting in the evening? turning up your shutter speed means less light IN if I am not mistaken... how do you combat this?
It looks sick with gimbal
If u watch video filming with Robot arms and get the feel, that's what u get
No software can replace physical stabilization... 😏
There were some crucial points missing in the vid and you hyped it up way too much. Here goes:
- It only works on modern lenses.
- Catalyst crops the image and than exports it 4K, so it upscales the footage. I read it in the comments already, it really downgrades the quality.
Some people already pointed out the analyze button. It could also be your system isn't fast enough, plus you need a graphics card with more than 8 GB of VRAM. If you don't, longer files will run your graphics card out of VRAM memory and even when you batch export, all files after that will fail to render.
Than there were some inconsistencies in your story. If you only have to batch export and we're going by the info you gave it doesn't add that many extra steps in your post production. And in the end you say: it might work for you if you don't care about motion blur, but it wasn't about motion blur, it was about the blurry pulses you get.
Anyway, this isn't a substitute for gimbal shots. Just as in camera stabilization isn't. The movement you get is different. Yes, it stabilizes but it doesn't gimbal-stabilize it.
After adding a crop factor (or minimum cropping ratio slider) on to the footage inside catalyst browse, in the bottom right of the screen u have a button "analyze". You can see the difference in your footage after clicking it. If the button doesn't work, maybe try asking for some tech support. Hope this helps
GyroFlow is much better than Catalyst Browse
I’m probably not the typical demographic for your channel (amateur videographer turned dad), or maybe I am, but as a run and gun shooter shooting footage of his kids and family, this comes especially useful for me. As any parent would know, who the f has time for gimbals when you’re trying to keep up with a few toddlers, already lugging around a ton of baby gear. It’s the reason why I swapped out my a7iii for an a7c in the first place. Quick, compact, ready at a moments notice. I’ll give it a try, thanks man
at this point just use an iphone with steady mode on. the image you see in this video is heavily cropped and it's not worth it in my opinion
@@ov1lord977 Completely valid point, and to that, I absolutely use my iPhone 12 when the a7c isn't with me... but that shit just doesn't hit the same lol. Throw that iPhone footage into any editing software and watch it fall apart when moving any of the sliders. After having the two kids, these videos and photos mean so much more to me. Yes, I share it on social platforms for the friends and family, but they are first and foremost for ME and my family. I can go on about it, but end of the day, it's the fine balance I'm trying to find between obtaining quality imagery and an efficient compact system. Something I think anyone watching his video wouldn't mind perfecting. But yeah, iPhone for when my son is pushing a kid version target shopping cart while in target. a7c with a 35mm (+52mm super 35), variable nd, g1 mic, and a 10% cinebloom for when the fam gets together. Worth it.
Which g1 mic are you referring to?(I am still with my a7iii waiting for the next a7Cii😂)
@@Despacitoporelmundo Sony ECM-G1 mic, it was released earlier this year. The selling point for me was its compact size and lack of cables as it connects and records through the hot shoe. It's a little expensive imo but it suits my needs. All else I can ask for at this point is a fast pancake 35mm and 10-bit recording (maybe a7cii!)
@@antnguyen I am checking it out (sounds like it fits me too…no cables is a good idea). Thank you for your informative response and keep enjoying your kids (I got a little girl who i record all the time too…so I understood all you wrote as my own.)👍👍
Another solution is GH6 🤔
This is why I love my Black Magic pocket cinema + Resolve. GPU gyro stabilization right in resolve, it's super fast rendering right in your editor. No fumbling with external programs
catalyst browsing is time consuming, can they make it more simpler, like adding queue waiting playlist,
let say, i want to apply all my videos with the exact same setting as before, so it would process all the waiting list videos without i need to manually re do it every time the process/render is done. just like how torrent works, downloading itself once one finish to another.
tested with A74, only works with 30fps, in 4k 60fps it doesn't work. and the render quality is horrible. however throw my clips in gyroflow it works even in 4k 60fps, and render quality is much better, the smoothness is not so good though.
Oh yeah that too. On the FX6 it does work in 60p it doesn't work in S&Q
Full disclosure, I didn’t watch this video, but I assume this is taking camera movement data to stabilize in post.
You lose SO MUCH of the frame when you crop to stabilize. This is not a replacement for a gimbal. I guess maybe for TH-cam it could work if you frame everything with lots of dead space all around.
You saved yourself some time! Bravo
The software UI and experience is rough. It just adds too much time to workflow. I may revisit when it’s a bit more optimized or even Sony can do it in-body. How wild would that be?
I have used CB for over a year for weddings, and honestly it is by far the best feature of newer sony cameras. I use reel smart motion blur with 0,3 motion blur, and you couldn't tell that I didn't use a ND filter
Catalyst even at 1/250 the footage is NOT as sharp as Active Stab for example. Tested myself
Yeah, this was a non in-depth video.

This reduce quality a lot! Still gonna preffer a gimbal. Sometimes gyro have a woble2 things after stabilization which i dont really like it. Id still use stabilization but only to reduce motion on a gimbal footage so it would be look more cinematic
👏👏👏👏👏👏
The problem when you record handheld and running chasing the girl obviously you had to use the catalyst with the gyro but the crop left a lot of background out in the scene. I love handheld when I film closeup shots but for me the gimbal is very essential for action shots because we can waist time putting the gyro, editing, cropping, exporting etc etc etc. So, another good tool is a cinema saddle bag but they are expensive and not all knows how to balance the camera with your body at the same time, so gimbal came for help us to make easy our job. Keeping doing your videos. Have a good one.
GyroFlow is the answer to my sony camera. think you'll like it too since you're looking for realtime preview and batch render like i was.
Gimbal can't be replaced! You still need a Gimbal I think.
Do we have anything for canon users
which Sony cameras will or won't work?
It is great function but only works on Sony a7 or better series, it is not compatible on A6xxx series 😢
3:48 I don't know when it got updated, but with analyze it stabilizing the preview for me.
Other option is Gyroflow, it is free and it allows you to
-stabilize a smaller part of the footage,
-it can correct rolling shutter
-lock horizon,
-adjust cropping ratio
-you can export in prores,
-and it is fast,
but you have to record with IBIS turned off, more complicated because you have more control.
Most phones nowadays have gyro sensors so you can record gyro data with that and throw it into the Gyroflow software. It takes a bit more time to sync and organize files than CB but it's much more accessible as it'll work with any camera. I recently tried it out on my channel, and while it's a bit annoying, the results are just as good.
I appreciate your work !! Which mic u are using bro during recording this video ??
this program aint worth it. Crashes everytime and can't handle 4k clips. I say sony has to make better stablization cameras in the near future. literally gopro, iphone and has superior stablization and sony needs to step up their game
This software is promoted on purpose, in the user agreement, you are basically letting Sony use your footage in any way it wants.
So don't use this software on anything you think is remotely private.
Why not just use a gimbal combined with lens stabilization and then in post smack it with the stabilization software to make the footage even more stable. You're supposed to use all of your tools. People want to wave a magic wand. It doesn't work that way and never will. Nature is a prime example. In order for ecosystems to thrive there has to be a mass cooperation of elements and factors.
Gyro stabilization IS NOT AN OPTION, because you have to change your shutter speed = loose motion blur = looks like soap opera. So stop pretending is a SERIOUS option to any filmmaker, it's just NOT.
sadly, catalyst also takes sharpnes/detail away from the beautiful sharp 4k footage :(
thank but ill pass , i don't need another paying subscription for a stabilized services , thats a waste , ill. keep my gimble
My main footage came from A7iii, So I thinks I Still have to stick with the Gimbal because there are No Gyroscope information for the Program (I tried There Are Really No Show) ha ha ha.
Don't ever pit Catalyst Browse against Gimbal, truly misleading title
If you don't mind high shutter.
The solution is downgrade the catalyst browse the first version is WAY Better imo
What’s different in the older version ? And how do you downgrade ?
For social media sure you can get away with the crop and therefore the quality drop. I’ve just used it on a commercial shot and definitely doesn’t work. 😢
$0..
But you need a gear worth of $3000
My 700D don't have gyro. That's why I buy $500 gimbal
Software Stabilization only works in daylight not in the dark
The problem with stabilizing our footage in post is the crop, and loss of resolution.
And the “jello” effect if u film hand held with zero IBIS and manual lens 😢 (in premiere pro)
you are so wrong, it the gimbal. throw you zhyun gimbal in the garbage and get a RS3 and the shakes are gone!
I like catalyst brows but even if I do a minimal amount of stabilization my footage gets super soft. Is this normal? I mean I understand if I'm doing a big time stabilization that is going to crop in a lot but if I'm just doing a little I'm shocked at how much it degrades my footage.
Same here. The stabilisation and lack of jitter was amazing, but clarity ended up worse than HD resolution. Wondering if there's further post processing needed to get the sharpness back
Can i use Gyroflow instead of catalyst?
for zero dollars, you can't export in 10bit....
This doesn’t make me consider replacing my gimble. It’s a cool tool that’s useful occasionally, but having to crop in that far is usually a deal breaker for me. I prefer my gimble 95% of the time
when you're not running and shaking the camera all over the place, the 1.5 crop isn't necessary and it's barely 5% in my usage
for running, i still need my gimbal. but no movement extrim, handheld is my option.
Good is better than perfect. I would still use a gimbal rather than wait 5 hrs and obtain a cropped shot
Go with Blackmagic and you fine.
catalyst browse not working in MAC M2 PRO
Exceptional video! Thanks for posting it and for being preemptive in answering a question I was brewing up as I watched of 'what if a gymbal was used and the software was added in post?'. What are your thoughts if one added the software plus a gymbal and used the backpack marionette type set up?
I can’t get rid of my gimbal yet since I don’t have a Sony camera.
hello very warmly, will it be for sony a73?
DOES THIS WORK WITH A7SII I need the answer ASAP
Catalyst Browse appears to be sold by Sony. It also only runs on computers with Intel processors. Specifically a 64-bit operating system: Microsoft® Windows 10 or Windows 11; macOS 10.15 (Catalina), 11 (Big Sur)*, or 12 (Monterey), Intel processors only. So to use this software I'd have to purchases a whole new computer. That really sucks and makes this a nonstarter for me.
Good video, though.
Its easy to find a gimbal but hard to find a dude who can run around me
Didn't know this existed but now I want a BMPCC. Wait.. I don't even need one. Still cool though, and it's now on my radar.
It’s good but needs a fast shutter speed
Panasonic (LUMIX) has the best stabilization ever (with Dual I.S. 2), but I still use my G81 on a gimbal-the Zhiyun Weebill-S. No built-in stabilization in any camera comes close to that which a gimbal provides. It's that simple.
Brilliant for day time but unfortunately terrible at night even with lighting 😔 i started doin a lot of night time video and its terrible, i dont know what the future holds but i have my fingers crossed 😅🤞
Can you explain by using Sony Catylist Browser how I can, 'Batch Capture' all of my clips using a SXS Card Reader directly into my PC to next import into Adobe Premiere?
Or an I use the Adobe Capture Utility to get only one large File?
is this software exclusive to Sony or can any camera with gyro meta data use this , How does it compare to Gyroflow, Reelsteady
Hey man cool vid... you a little bit out of focus tho
Is there something for Canon m50?
Nice video man, just notice you're using a telemprompter any advice about what brand or how to script for teleprompters?
Does this work for the Sony A7iii? Or does anyone know an alternative if it doesn’t? Don’t have a gimbal, yet.
I also think any lens flares or anything that is on the camera (If you like dirtying the lens) then post stabilsation is always going to look weird as those marks on the lens move so much - like lens flares from the sun get ruined and feel iphone like! I'd 100% be using this for lower moving slowmotion footage though
Yes, that looks weird 🤣
This software costs.. not free
Is this possible for the Sony fx30?
Does it work with Sony RX100V
bro, when we can buy your reels course? please take our money
Hey bro, what lights are you using to record your videos? Thanks!
This is great, but most filmmaker use gimbal and other equipments because you can't show up for a client job holding a camera in your hand.
It just doesn't work
So even though my BMPCC4K has gyro data and I have the feature in Resolve, I still fly it on my Crane 3S because the gimbal gives better results with less Judder.
Hi Henbu, love this video! I've been watching all of your stuff for months now. Perfect balance of informative, entertaining, and good cinematic value.
My good fellow, slow down about 25%. It is very difficult to follow at the speed you are talking. What you are saying is good when I can hear it clearly. Using the settings to slow it down to 75% is better but does lead to some slurring that is difficult to understand. Just a suggestion on presentation, not content.
what if the clip doesn't contain metadata? I shoot with an a7iii but my clips don't seem to have it.
Than you can't use it. It only works on modern lenses.
😩Premiere Pro warp stabilization ain’t doing justice for me. Might have to try out the catalyst browse.
No offense but the footage looks like a bad phone shot.
Isn't gyro stabilisation built into an processed in camera in the *Sony FX30* ...
For the time being, i dont think its possible.
1) Given the fact Sony adds features with new hardware. they dont do substantial firmware updates like this.
2) I dont think the current processors are capable of running such a processing task without sacrificing battery life or manage heat dissipation on current bodies.
3) iphone sensors are hugely smaller than APSC/FF sensors, this is one factor that smartphones can process data from such a small sensors.
I'm not saying this is not doable but saying this wont be happening anytime soon due to the lack of market competition, so why would they implement something like this when their cameras are being sold in minutes.
Anything for A7iii?
That’s great and all but would rather get it right once with the gimbal and not give it any stabilization so the minimal “shake” looks more natural. Plus, stabilization will just crop a ton of the footage.
Just add motion blur in post production
So only for Sony?? ☹️
Does catalyst support a7iii? I’m struggling to get it and work I’m sure is something to do with gyroscope information on the a7iii
Does it work w A7iii
Does this work with Sony a73
use gyroflow !
Does this work on a6700?
Your shoes make a difference. I use socks for indoors but for outdoor stuff you might want to try something with a really thin sole like driving shoes
for sony only?
i think using catal;yst browse with a glidecam could be agood mid point, semi handheld and gimbal like with catlyst browse
Thats why I got the Lumix S1. Comes with "IBIS" In body stabilizer. It's amazing until you use any lens past 50mm.
Does this work with non-native lenses? say the sigma 30mm f1.4
