it's too bad no one is doing any GOOD vids on how to properly calibrate this gimbal or adjust the motors when the phone gets a few degrees out of level or tilt
the balancing is quite subjective as you can't get the center of every phone. in some cases, there are phones that have the power and volume keys on the same side.
I am having an issues with using this in portrailt mode, like for live feed for Instagram. The Smooth q2 seems not to work for portrailt mode. Is way anything I can do to getr it to way trhis way?
You appeared to have omitted one of the nicest features of this gimbal; if you tap the button one more time after getting to POV mode, it will go into an additional mode that allows you to use the joystick to get the gimbal to rotate around 360 degrees - it's cool.
what about the worst part of this gimbal? wide camera is a mess...the axis show up in any mode that you select....so in order to fix this, you have to press 3 times the record bottom and you will be able to record without the axis in your shoot but from 5 modes now you can use 3...I consider this is not a good gimbal to any one....
Evan, i watched some other "tutorials" but NONE compared to the in-depth instruction that you gave in setting up and operating this Q2. I'm 82, and believe me, at this age clear cut, easy to follow tutorials are a must. Thank you for speaking loud enough (one guy was almost whispering) and showing EVERYTHING that I needed to know to get started using this new toy.
Hi Evan, thank you for the vid. Really helped with setup! I wanted to ask, is there anyway to use this gimble for vertical shooting? that's what I mainly need it for.... Thanks
The mode referred to below is called 'Vortex'; Vortex Mode (V): The tilt axis rotates 90° and revolves following the movement of the stabilizer handle. Push the joystick left/right to control the pan axis.
I followed all these instructions very carefully during the setup and balance but unfortunately there is literally no way that my phone will balance in this contraption, no matter where I place it. What on earth is going on here?
Please Help - I bought Zhiyun Smooth Q2 recently and installed the app on iphone 11. while using the ZY Play app to shoot / record the videos get stored in the app. once i import the content and try to edit in Premier Pro CC i dont get the video only audio is picked up, please advise what is the problem or is there any option which lets the recorded footage directly into the iphone memory. Awaiting your kind reply as this would be very helpful. Thank You.
I cant seem to find the Live Stream button on my screen..only 4 buttons appear. Pls help. Thanks. Also when i tilt, i can still see the part of my gimbal in the picture. How do i get rid of that?
Excellent video here. I am using an iPhone 6S (Yes I know still a little oldskool lol) and was wondering if you could go through the video settings in the ZY Play app. What fps should I use to record sports/Jogging pace footage? Thanks.
hi my gimbal is not doing the things u showed ninth above vdo. and its not following nor is it locking. how do I contact you if I wish to speak to you?
Smooth Q2** Tripod came with Kickstarter backer orders. It's priced well enough that you can just purchase any 1/4" screw tripod to attach. Also, there seems to be quite a bit of jitter to your videos (compared to what I've managed to capture with my Smooth Q2). I'm not sure you've balanced it correctly - per the instructions, you're supposed to balance the phone facing downwards (i.e. camera facing up).
Zoom in and Zoom out through the Gimbal, who do you do it? as I do not see a dedicated zoom in/out button. (can it do zoom in an d out also in native camera app) thanks.
Hey man, Great review! Do you know of a good light attachment for this? A lot of the applications we're looking to use this for are low light or evening shots!
what features of the smooth 4 are missing. Both can use their own phone vdo recorder or does the smooth 4 need its own; dedicated ? What unit has the BT audio for remote mic ?
Hi Evan! Great Video. Can you tell me which removale battery model is being used in this one? I may need to purchase couple of them for my purpose, hence need to check it's availability.
Evan Thomas I would appreciate you elaborating as I can’t find the zoom controls on the gimbal. Or do you mean zooming in with finger motions on the phone screen?

Evan, can the phone be used in vertical aspect with this gimbal? I’m super new at this… thanks in advance for your help
Evan your video is great. I cannot for the life of me balance my phone. Isn’t it supposed to be vertical and balanced while off? Thanks John.
it should be somewhat balanced, even when turned off

Exactly. Even after firmware update it's so much of disappointment having this gimbal
Sending it back

Hopeless Gimbal, breakdown in 6 months. Zhiyun will repair. after we pay shipping , Cost 300$ to hongkong + repair charges
Hi Evan, thank you for the vid. Really helped with setup! I wanted to ask, is there anyway to use this gimble for vertical shooting? that's what I mainly need it for.... Thanks

Insta 360 or gopro 9. And which budget gimbal for ac.camera and phone use?
This is the best setup tutorial ever
Thanks for watching!
You have to turn of your Phone stabilizer.Video is pretty shaky.Phone Stabilizer and Gimbal causing an conflict.
I followed all these instructions very carefully during the setup and balance but unfortunately there is literally no way that my phone will balance in this contraption, no matter where I place it. What on earth is going on here?
Excellent clear instruction. I hv seen a few instruction vids but this one is tops.

Thank you!! The first tutorial to help me be successful in setting this up
Zoom in and Zoom out through the Gimbal, who do you do it? as I do not see a dedicated zoom in/out button. (can it do zoom in an d out also in native camera app) thanks.
My iPhone 8 plus somehow gets unbalanced when I change mode to follow. It gets tilted towards left. Do you encounter the same issue?
Is it possible to zoom in and out through any of the Gimbal buttons for taking still photos ?
Hey man, Great review! Do you know of a good light attachment for this? A lot of the applications we're looking to use this for are low light or evening shots!
what features of the smooth 4 are missing. Both can use their own phone vdo recorder or does the smooth 4 need its own; dedicated ? What unit has the BT audio for remote mic ?
what is the make, model of the tripod
Great video! How do you activate dolly zoom and vertigo mode
Hi Evan! Great Video. Can you tell me which removale battery model is being used in this one? I may need to purchase couple of them for my purpose, hence need to check it's availability.
it's the one that comes with the gimbal.
@@EvanThomas Do you know the model number writen on the battery ?
How do you turn off Q2?
If i can't balance it can i use a counter weight
How can we do zooming
Very useful video. Thanks. Can I zoom or fine tune my phone camera from gimbal like it is with Zhiyun Smooth 4?
thank you, yes you can zoom the phone camera
Evan Thomas I would appreciate you elaborating as I can’t find the zoom controls on the gimbal.
Or do you mean zooming in with finger motions on the phone screen?
No zoom, only on the phone screen
