the footage isn't that smooth looking at the edges reveals it's not from the z axis, even when the balance is as perfectly set up as you showed. Did you use IS or IBIS in your shots? Also it's missing essential details in the specs. As i understand it, years ago YT reviews revealed that a gimbal without encoders will always drift with time, Zhiyun doesn't say it has encoders on their website. Also non-replaceable batteries in 2024 is e-waste in a few years
Christopher, you are not testing this enough. Gimbals needs to be stress tested with different weights. Will this actually work well with my A7 IV + Viltrox AF 135mm/1.8? That's 1900 grams. The "max payload" doesn't tell you how it will perform.
I test it with a Lumix s5iix , and sigma 24-70mm f2.8 mark ii with comica receiver on the hot shoe. Its easy weight for it. And stabilization is very good.
Im using the same gimbal with a Panasonic S5ii + full cage + mc11 + Canon EF 24-105II. No problems with this setup. You will be fine with an A7iv + 135mm
It's really a excellent product! It could match perfectly with the Fuji X-M5, Sony ZVE10ii, and Canon R10/R50. Many people would appreciate its existence for the value
.....and I thought a Gimbal was a small elf-like creature from outer space ! You will probably gather I am not into vieo. At least you got a day out in sunny Manchester.
to be honest, a lot of the clips (the panning while walking e.g.) look pretty jerky. and on top of that, microjitters are often visible. i don't think i'd buy this over one of DJIs smaller gimbals.

Dude has established his brand as "totally independent" shill and using consistency as an excuse for brevity and selective omittion
Any word for us on the fujifilm 60mm review?
It's currently available to see on Patron - not sure when it'll hit the main channel
It's really a excellent product! It could match perfectly with the Fuji X-M5, Sony ZVE10ii, and Canon R10/R50. Many people would appreciate its existence for the value
This is a nice option for those who want to dabble in videography without braking the bank. Thanks for the content.
Chris please review the Voigtlander ultra wides. 10mm/12mm/15mm
Finally, some video gears review! anyways, can u review voightlander 35mm/23mm f1.2 for the fuji X-mount? thanks for the time to read this comment!
But is it sharp?

Yes, totally silent
Badger badger badger badger
mushroom mushroom ?
RABBITS!
I don't think it not having a proper case is a price thing - it's probably mostly a product segmentation thing.
Weebil? Does it wobble but never fall down?😆
Would be better if it didn’t have such a dropship sounding name.
They're offering a $50 coupon so it'll be $199 plus tax if you want/need one. I don't do video so really don't see the need for one.
i bought a gimble and have never used it.. too big for me to carry around.. but great video!
yeah man i love gible
I dont think you’ve tested this gimbal enough to really compare it to any other gimbal, but I appreciate the video anyway.
This is not up to par with your normal reviews. Test them properly, this is almost an ad. I love your lens reviews.
to be honest, a lot of the clips (the panning while walking e.g.) look pretty jerky. and on top of that, microjitters are often visible. i don't think i'd buy this over one of DJIs smaller gimbals.
I have the same gimbal, never had the problems he had in this video
or maybe he forgot to disable the camera IBIS
My last Zhiyun stopped charging just after 3 months. Really bad product.
Did you contact them about it?
No support for FUJIFILM? Dang.
I've just checked for you and yes, Fujifilm is supported too :-) link to a full list of compatibility in the description
