Ja man, nüme viel 🔥
Fantastic video!
Thank you!
Just got myself one of these from TaoBao on the 11.11 Sale Promo. Can't wait for it to reach here.
Great video bro!
Thanks!
Hello, First of all thank you very much for sharing this video and I am thinking of buying this zhiyun smooth 5s for the first time. But what is this Premium black card that comes with it Is this a special program and how do I use it?
This was an excellent video. Loved your presentation and you got me eager to visit Switzerland. You just convinced me to buy this gimbal. Heading to Amazon now. BTW...do you sell the LUTs that you used in this video?
Thanks for watching Rogan! Glad you enjoyed the content. Yes I do, you can find the LUT pack here: benettgraezer.com/product/smartphone-filmmaking-lut-pack/
Have fun shooting!
I bet it would fit really good on my iPhone12 promax, thanks Bennet
It will, you are welcome 👍🏻
Great
Thanks!
Lot’s of love from India 🇮🇳 ❤ Nice video benett bro 🙏⛳️
You are welcome!
Awesome Video! I am using the Smooth 5 on an iPhone 14 Pro Max and very excited! I wanted to se the name of the sound effect of the vortex shot to get that whooshing sound in post. Thank you!
Not sure about the name but I get all of my sound effects from artlist, link in the description to get 2 months additionally for free
Useful
Thanks!
Super👍
You are welcome!
Great video! Love it 🙋🏼♂️. How do you stabilize your videos afterwords?
Thanks a lot! I add post stabilization in Final Cut Pro.
bro u earned a new sub. video is nice and clean. im only in 1 minute
Thank you so much 🙏🏻
Hey nice Video. I bought the Smoorth5S now too. But I can't activate him, cause the ZY App me always asked for an certification Code. But I found no one in the box of the Smooth5. Do you habe any idea where I can finde this code?
Please suggest best gimble for Samsung galaxy ultra 22
Which one is better, Hohem iSteady M6 or this?
It looks like I have to replace my DJI Gimbal soon 😅
The Alpstein is one of my favourite hiking&filming locations, enjoyed you shooting there 🤟🏻
Thanks buddy 👍🏻
Can it handle the size and weight of iPhone 14 Pro Max + Moment case + Monent lenses with filters? I seriously can’t believe it’s 2023 and I’m still asking this question. I don’t want to have to take off my case every time I use a gimbal and I want to use attachment filters and lenses. Thanks
Very smart to put the “end result/video” of all captures at the end of this video 🤔
I like the light
It’s a nice feature 👍🏻
GoPro Hero 11 camera This gimbal
Can you use it?
Hello, love the video thank you! The effect on 45 seconds with the camera is really cool what did you use for this? Thanks again!
Thx a lot! I use a graphics overlay from productioncrate amd tracked the camera :)
@BenettGraezer thanks for replying. Its really cool.
Thank you!
These clips are too beautiful. Are you using any LUTS in your color grade?
Yes check out my premium mobile luts 👍🏻
@@BenettGraezer did you use "Lovely Prophecy" for clip @5:30 ?
Hi Benett, for pro work, is better this one instead Osmo 6 and also 5? about you, Great and dedicated job as usual.
Thank you so much! The zhiyun smooth 5s is great for pro work as it has strong motors and you can mount additional lenses.
Quick question, don't you find the gimbal's arm and bracket hindering the view of the mobile screen while using the gimbal for making a video especially when the mobile is on horizontal mode.
Can't believe a phone is filming this 😳
Thank you so much!
@@BenettGraezer you’re welcome bro... new to the channel and already learned alot! 👌🏽
If we paying 12,hundred to 15 I think it’s more than a phone
Bennet is it support Filmic Pro? Another excellent video as usual. ☺️☺️
Yes it does! Thank you
@@BenettGraezer I cannot get the 5S to connect to Filmic Pro. Do you have to upgrade to the paid subscription?
My one and only teacher
I apprecaite it!
if you wanted to film a player in action.. like in a football game for example.. which mode do you recommend? Thanks for your videos!
Which mode do you recommend?
Which mode do you recommend?
wow sir
Thanks!
great review thank you. but apparently it does not auto rotate from vertical to horizontal mode or vice versa. need to manually change the orientation. hope zhiyun will fix it on smooth 6
Glad you like it! No unfortunately not, you would have to do that manually.
Thanks for this.. what mode you’re using when flipping upside down into the ground?
Follow mode
@@BenettGraezer Thank you!🥂
Hi benett, can i use this gimbal with filmic pro app?? Tnks so much
Yes, absolutely
Thank you for fantastic video, I have question please I use 14 pro so I am really confused between smoth 5s and DJI Osmo mobile 6 so gave me your opinion and what better
Thanks my friend and good luck
Check out the Insta360 Flow
Hii Benett, your video are awesome. I have a question, here on 5:21 the camera video looks shaking but the result was absolutely stable. Did you edit that ? can you share us how u edit somehting like that ? Thankyou in advance
Yes I did add some post stabilization in Final Cut Pro 👍🏻
@@BenettGraezerThankyou for the responses, I will look forward about it and try edit video with final cut pro. Did you make the video stable by slowing the video and decreasing the fps into 24fps ?
Can you please advice is Zhiyun Smooth 5 is better or DJI Cosmo 6 for mobile videography?
Did u buy one?
Mantap😊
Thx!
Hi, do you know if it's compatible with Freewell Sherpa filters?
If you are using it with just the filters it will work. However if you mount the anamoorphic it will be to heavy.
Hi
Have you tested it with an Android phone and do all functions work?

Thankyou for Great Review. How to add DJI or Rode or Hollyland wireless mic receiver to Smartphone while using Zhiyun Smooth 5S.
Thanks! The DJI Mic would probably be most convinent. Just slide the phone away from the tilt motor and then you can simply plugin the dji mic in :)
@@BenettGraezer Thanks for you reply. You really gave me great idea related to attaching microphone to smartphone while using it with Zhiyun Smooth 5S. Thanks for caring for your viewers. Keep creating awesome videos. Previously I forgot to mention that you really gone to field to create such awesome review of Zhiyun Smooth 5S which i thought is great way to demonstrate any product. Cheers to you.
I really appreciate it! It’s people like you that help keep me going 💯 Thanks the support 🔥
How do you stabilize your videos without quality loss
Can i use all of those buttons without filmic pro ? Will the buttons work on another app like switcher studio ?
Maybe not.😨
Congratulations on the Channel! Can you tell me which would be the best option to start as a hobby... the dji mobile 6 or the Zhiyun Smooth 5s?
I find the OM6 easier to get started
@@BenettGraezer Before watching your video I had bought the Osmo 6... I returned it and I'm receiving the Smooth 5s on 01/12/22... now I'll have to learn the hardest one. Thanks for listening!
You are welcome! Good luck shooting 👍🏻
@@valdenissilva3333 why did you return it? i too have ordered om 6 but after watching reviews of its limitations on various angles am feeling to cancel the order. please advise
@@vee5931 if you plan on adding external lenses, save your time and just order the Smooth 5. I had the OM5 (similar payload to the OM5) and it couldn't handle my Pixel 7 plus an external wide lens which made the setup 287g. I put that exact same setup on the Smooth 5 and haven't had one issue.
Do you think you can also use your go pro on this gimbal ?
Not sure haven’t tested it out
How would you compare with the DJI OM6? Having 2nd thoughts now.. help me decide…! 😩
Zhiyun Smooth 5s PROS:
- Longer Batterylife
- Stronger Motors
- Built-in Light
- Full 360 Degree rotation
- Built-in Power Bank to charge phone
- Great to use if you have a heavier phone and want to mount a third party lens with a filter
DJI Osmo Mobile 6 PROS:
- Coompact Size and Foldable
- Liteweight
- Quicker Setup Time
- Built in extension pole
- Magnetic Clamp
- Great for traveling as the size is very small
did you edit it in a mobile app or exported to a PC/mac to do full blown post work?
I‘ve edited it inside Final Cut Pro 👍🏻
How do you use the Smooth 5s shutter button to record on the iphone normal camera?
You can connect the bluetooth with your native camera.
Is this gimbal system compatible with Samsung S23, S24 in terms of 4K and 60fps recording?
Their cami app with the Experimental for option for Android users, when enable experimental, all the frame rate options are available in the shooting mode. When enable experimental, all the frame rate options are avialbe in shooting mode. But some of the options are not supported in certain smartphone operating systems.
great! tahnk you. where is here?
Thank you too!
@@BenettGraezer where is place?
How about physical longevity ? Ive bought one of Zhiyun that last only few months.
I still have the Zhiyun Smooth 5s and it holds up pretty well. Just make sure to check your payload otherwise it will have negative outcome on the gimbal motors.
Is the app is downgrading video quality as Dji Mimo does ( hyperlapses especially )
I stick with thr default camera app most of the time as it most lukely will produce the best quality, unless I need the features inside thd ZY CAMI app
Any issues with the weight of iPhone 14 Pro Max + Moment lenses + filters?
Unfortunately I don‘t have moment lenses, so I can‘t really test it 😕
Can this gimbal be used to change from rear camera to front facing camera in the iPhone native camera app? I’m looking for a gimbal that will support the weight of a 14 pro max, but also allow me to switch between lenses in the native app.
14 pro max can work well with this gimbal. But it can only use the app to change from rear camera to front facing camera.
Can the "follow tracking" on a gimbal be turned off please. I want to film what I'm pointing my phone at as if the phone is welded to the gimble, but keeping stabilization active. Thanks.
You can single press the trigger button to Enable/disable SmartFollow function.
Hello,is this compatible with Sony Experia 1 mark 2,thanks,colin.
Yes 👍🏻
@@BenettGraezer 😊👍
Slow motions was’added also yes or no
Yes
I def have to upgrade my Gimbal …the smooth 5 isn’t strong enough to support the 14 Pro Max
The strong motors are really great, especially when you want to use third-party lenses
Does it work with the Beastcase + Lense?
Unfortunately not as it exceeds the payload, you would have to get something like the Weebil S by Zhiyun
Hello, I have a question! I film myself drawing a lot, and I make shorts out of it. I want to buy this gimbal, however, there is no built in extension pole? Any help with that?
There is a 1/4 screw hole on the bottom of the gimbal, you can buy an extension pole with a 1/4 screw to install it
Yes like he said you can buy a an ext pole 👍🏻
what is the best mode for real estate videos.
Pan follow mode
@@BenettGraezer thank you.
Does it have active tracking?
Yes
is this the new upgraded one ?
It is the newest at present.
Thank you for the video, But I see the unedited footage on phone is shaky, Is it normal with Zhiyun smooth 5 / or any gimbal ? So do we need to stabilize in post as well?
Well I do most of the time add post stabilization if it helps improve the stabilization. It was very windy on that day, so that could be the cause of the video being a bit shaky. That is usually not the case with the Zhiyun Smooth 5s :)
@@BenettGraezer thank you . I bought a brand new Zhiyun smooth 5 gimbal and it looks like the device is malfunctioning, the stabilization is not ok even if I do a ninja walk . Planning to get a replacement. Thank you once again , good day!
Sorry to hear that, i hope they can help you with that issue 👍🏻
@@BenettGraezer hope so 🤞
IS this fit in iPhone 14 pro max with the case on?
Yes 👍🏻
I’m got this gimbal and noticed when you use the tilt (aiming the camera up and down) I hear some slight clicks almost rubbery sounds. Is this normal to hear these sounds on a gimbal? I only tried it indoors so maybe the audio is just sensitive to it cause it’s so quiet inside
There maybe the sounds from the motor when working.
Can i use Zhiyun Smooth 5s gimble for my Samsung a52s phone??
Yes 👍🏻
@@BenettGraezer Thanks a lot sir. I have already ordered this product from Amazon. But my friend told me that, it will not support my Samsung a52s phone. For this, i am very upset and so worried.
How to mount an external microphone and a light on it,?
There are interfaces for magnetic fill light on the bottom and top of the phone holder
WHAT SETTINGS AND GEAR WAS USED TO SHOOT THIS TH-cam VIDEO?
Canon R5
Can i do this also in my zhiyun5 only.??
Sure 👍🏻
Which are better? OM 6 or Zhiyun Smooth 5s?
depends on you shooting needs ;)
5:23 - that stabilization is on post?
Yes
@@BenettGraezer thx
what is the payload for the smooth 5S?
Up to 300g
150g to 300g
Hello
Can you charge your phone?
Yes 🙌🏻
Can I use that gamble with an android phone
Sure 👍🏻
Does it work with Google Pixel 7 please?
Yea
Can I use a beast cage ?
No that would be too heavy
new product 5s right.. what different with 5 and 5s
Motors are stronger, built in light, new white design :)
@@BenettGraezer i see...thanks
REVIEW PLEASE FOR TIMELAPSE, MOVEMENT!!!
Even though you have a gimbal, and "ninja walk", do you still stabilize your clips before you release a final video?
I'm just surprised I still need to stabilize my clips that come from the Smooth 5 even though my phone is on a perfectly balanced gimbal and it has the phone's internal stabilization on.
Is it unfair to expect that I should have nearly "drone level stability" from these newer phones with all this great stabilization added to a perfectly balanced gimbal?
Yes I do most of the time add post stabilization for the the smoothest video results
@@BenettGraezer fair enough. Just wanted to make sure it wasn't just me. Thanks for confirming
Hey, how do you add the stanilization. Do you need an App for it?
@@l.b.6680 My Google Pixel 7 has a stabilization feature in my phone that I've found to be better than my computer based stabilization on Davinci Resolve. But either of those ways will work.
I'm just as surprised with the shot at 5:20 --- the wiggles side to side are insane....
dose it has fpv mode sir
Yes
What about in a Galaxy 21+ phone..??

Bennet , check your email 👍! Didn’t receive the download link to the mobile LUTS pack I bought! Great video again
Hi Stuart, Sorry to hear that, just message me at info@benettgraezer.com and I’ll be happy to send it to you :)
@@BenettGraezer sent 👍
Is it compatible with iPhone 15 pro max?
Yes 👍🏻
kind of regretting getting the osmo 6 now
The Osmo 6 is als a great gimbal, it all comes down to your shooting needs :) I guess if you need a strong gimbal where you want to add thrid party lenses then this a great option.
