This covers the features, pros, and cons of the new Feiyutech Scorp Mini Gimbal. This cool little gimbal will work with any smaller mirrorless cameras, action cameras, and with your phone. I said "Scorptec" once or twice by mistake.

Thanks for another great and informative review Shane ! Looks like this could be the gimbal for me ! I will be looking forward to the balancing vid. :-)
Great review, I had no idea you also did gear reviews (I follow your guitar channel). I got this gimbal free for review and I really like it, I shoot professionally and the Weebil S was just a little big in some circumstances and this coupled with an M50 is awesome when you want to be a little less conspicuous. Great review.
On the app when you use the function to set different positions, can you also set the gimbal so it changes focus using the focus wheel for each position? Would be awesome for b-roll using manual lenses.
Hello, I was wondering if I could buy it off of you, if possible, only reason why I am going to such lengths is because I am a little worried about the third party website that FeiyuTech is selling their products from. The customers, including me, seem to be getting very slow responses as it pertains to feedback about our order progress, tracking, shipping, delivery, etc...And I know it'll take months to ship/deliver. so if its a possibility, I would love to see if I could buy yours from you? If not, that is fine as well, just weighing my options
Interesting. Is this compatible with a Panasonic GH5 ? (GH4 and GH5s are listed in the kickstarter compatibility file), but nobody can apparently confirm for a GH5...
Hello, great review! If I want to use it with my Sony A7S III (700 gms) + Sony 16-35 lens (353 gms.) would it work? I reckon yes because it's just over a kilo, right? Could you say that it is comparable to the Weebill S? Thank you!
The only negative I can see is, left handers are out of luck. They will hit the magic wheel. Next version should have an option to switch magic wheel to other side.
Really helpful review, thanks. I saw a Lumix S5 in the background. How does this gimbal work with the S5 and the 20-60 lens. Seems to be within the limit.
Hi! Great video! I just ordered one! You scared me at the end though about using it with big lenses. I have the Sigma 16mm, I guess it's mid-size and should be OK on the a6500. Hope so anyway! Thanks again for the great video

I mentioned you in my review - support for the left-handed!!
Love the shirt too!
Nice review. You have made my mind to get this one!
Nice construction, the smoothness of movement and so on .... great
Thank you
Thanks for another great and informative review Shane ! Looks like this could be the gimbal for me ! I will be looking forward to the balancing vid. :-)
Thank you for this fantastic Video, this is my absolutely Favorite..
Thank you. I'm a noob to gimbals and this was my first purchase. Not a lot of helpful content out there. Yours is the best I've found.
Thanks so much. I still use this gimbal for my smaller camera rigs, it’s great. 😊
Great review, I had no idea you also did gear reviews (I follow your guitar channel).

Great review.
I'm sold. I will buy this thing.
I loved the product!
It should work with Sony A7S and bigger mirrorless cameras as well, right? It was advertised on their site.
Is the 2nd handle blocking the FOV when in selfie mode with a 16mm lense ?
Any tips on setting up the cord to a Sony A74?
Is it compatible with nikon d750?
Thank you …. This was very informative
how to put hollyland mars on this gimbal ?
Best review 💗👍
Thank you 🙂
is the record button on the gimbal connects via bluetooth? or cable?
Does anyone know if this gimbal works with the Nikon Z30?
Yes, it does. I'm using it on my Z30. Perfect for me.
Can yours do vortex mode when you hold it torch wise? Mine doesnt even turn but it does turn when facing up.
On the app when you use the function to set different positions, can you also set the gimbal so it changes focus using the focus wheel for each position? Would be awesome for b-roll using manual lenses.
Thanks for the video man! how do you connect the gimbal to the camera via bluetooth? I can’t seem to figure that out.
Hi. I have the same problem. Have you managed to connect your camera via bluetooth?
@@ultorrotluultorrotlu not yet man. It works with a wire.
THANK YOU !
Are the FeiyuTech SCORP-C and FeiyuTech SCORP Mini the same gimbal?
Feiyutech ak2000s is also a very nice gimbal
Is the Nikon Z30 compatible with the Scorp-C? (I hope) 🤞🏼
Check their website or the manual. I don't own any Nikon cameras. If it meets the weight requirement you should be fine.
Curious to know how it’s holding up after a years use?
It's still going strong. I've used it in a few videos over the last 12 months and it also survived a trip overseas and back.
Hi. Can you help me to choose between Scorp mini and Scorp C? I want to use with Lumix G95 with 12-60 kit lens.
I have only tried this one, sorry! :)
How is this gimbal for lefties? Can you try using it, holding it, controlling it using its buttons with your left hand? Thanks!
I found the wheel gets in the way if you like to hold the gimbal with your left hand. I'm a lefty I mentioned it in the video a few times.
You mentioned doing a video on balancing the gimbal mini, is there a way to do the same for the Scorp-C? Please please please 😂 Thank you Sir!

Unless you are in Australia the shipping might cost way too much.
Great instructional video. Is it too much gimbal for an iphone. If so, what would you recommend for a newbie.
Get a Falcam or Ulanzi phone gimbal. Those are great. Search on my channel for reviews on both. :)
Nice Review. It was really helpful for a first time gimbal user like me. Is there a way to charge the camera while using this scorp mini?
I can't remember if it has a USB power output on it. You might need to rig a battery bank or something to the back handle.
Interesting. Is this compatible with a Panasonic GH5 ? (GH4 and GH5s are listed in the kickstarter compatibility file), but nobody can apparently confirm for a GH5...
The GH5 will fit on this gimbal but you'll need to weigh the entire combo with the lens to make sure it's not too heavy.
Does it remember the last setting ?
I’m pretty sure it does yes
Hello, great review!
If I want to use it with my Sony A7S III (700 gms) + Sony 16-35 lens (353 gms.) would it work?
I reckon yes because it's just over a kilo, right?
Could you say that it is comparable to the Weebill S?
Thank you!
There's no specific weight listed anywhere but I used it with my Sony FX3 and 24mm lens with success so it should be fine.
According to the manual the payload is 1200g.
Hi, i have a fuji XS10 and a tamron 17-70mm lens. its front heavy. do you think that would balance?
If it meets the weight requirements it should be fine. Check the weight of the rig.
Hello! This gimbal seems fantastic! Is it compatible with the Lumix G80M?
The only negative I can see is, left handers are out of luck. They will hit the magic wheel. Next version should have an option to switch magic wheel to other side.
Really helpful review, thanks. I saw a Lumix S5 in the background. How does this gimbal work with the S5 and the 20-60 lens. Seems to be within the limit.
I haven't tried it but the body with one of their smaller primes or 20-60 should be fine weight wise.
Hi! Great video! I just ordered one! You scared me at the end though about using it with big lenses. I have the Sigma 16mm, I guess it's mid-size and should be OK on the a6500. Hope so anyway! Thanks again for the great video
Weight the entire rig and see if it falls within the threshold. If it's close to it's maximum, maybe opt for a larger gimbal.
@@GeekyNerdyTechy actually I asked feiyu and they said it's not compatible. Had to cancel my in order
Will it work well with A7iii ?
if the camera and lens is under the weight requirement then it should be fine.
Good review, however I would have liked it if you had actually done some battery life tests rather than quoting the manufacturer's spiel.
Yeah like I’m going to leave a camera on a gimbal until the battery dies. No thanks. You can do that and damage your own gear.
So this is not for DSLR cameras like canon eos 200D?
You'll need to check the weight of your camera rig. I found it worked best with smaller mirrorless cameras.
