Literally been comparing these two because before the weebill S was the smallest cheapest option but DJI overcame them with this gimbal especially with the options and usability, thanks for giving an honest review!
The deal breaker is the battery swapping. That was the reason why I bought the Weebill in the past. The problem with built-in batteries is they can deteriorate over time and you have to change the whole device itself as it can no longer hold a 100% charge
i want to buy a gimbal. but i'm very confused which one to buy for my Canon eos 80D + 50mm prime lens.Between weebill-s & Dji Rs3 mini . i make shorts & cinematic vlog video ...please help me Sam. which one i'll buy? or any other option in this budget .
I disagree. By the time the batteries on the rs3 mini deteriorate there will be new and better gimbals out which in my case I'll just upgrade to something new. NO way do I plan on keeping the rs3 mini forever.
@@JESSROCKEDChannel True but like I said, the battery on the rs3 mini will last long enough to get enough use out of it. I also own the weebill s, crane 2s, crane v2, steadicams, glidecams and the rs3 mini is my favorite
I have the fx3 and weebill s, and I shoot vertically, using the side screw on the fx3 body. If I didn’t already own the weebill s I’d jump on the rs mini 3, but the weebill s has been such a great gimbal and continues to perform well after many years of use.
Underslung mode with mounted tripod as a handle is one of the best things of Weebill S. The center of weight literally hangs below your wrist which is awesome for taking smooth shots without getting exhausted! Still using Weebill S with my a7sIII + Sigma Art 24-70mm DG DN f/2.8 & Sigma Art 24mm DG DN f/1.4. I have more than 50 music videos shot on Weebill S + a7sIII. Yes sometimes I need to use Warp Stab in post but actually for compact and so cheap gimbal it works like a charm. The thing I would go for is RS3 Pro just to have this smoother shots without wasting time on Warp stabilizing in post. btw. important downside of Weebill S: it's plastic so my joystick stuck in tilting upwards (it just broke in my 5th project) so I had to decrease speed of joystick to zero (0) (disabled) so it's like you don't have a joystick anymore which is bad when you need it.
Was literally looking this just up. You can get the Weebil S used for like $150 now, and it's been the standard compact for the past few years, so this was the comparison I was looking for. If all the new bells and whistles worth the extra $150 with the rsc3 mini. Thanks for putting this up Terry, hope all is well!
Im using weebil s for a several years..pretty happy with it considering the price..and the battery life is just amazing... Last a full day.. charges Very fast
Thank you for this video. Because of your demo, I bought the DJI 3 mini. It was on sell so it put the price point near the Weebill-s. You helped me make a purchase where I was unable to try before I purchased the item. Thank you again.
Fantastic and honest review, I have both and agree with everything you have said. I love my Weebill S and use it for my second shorrter on some weddings, and as a backup.The DJI RS3 Mini is an amazing Gimbal.
I took the weebill S onto a 33 day europe trip and I can say it works... but the lock on 1 of the axis is now loose...That means its harder to balance the gimbal now that the lock is loose. Also it doesnt save your motor power settings and its overpowered for a7c + 35mm f1.8. Which means every time you adjust the motor power and turn it off... you have to adjust it AGAIN every time you use it!!! Annoying as hell. There was also a drifting issue... I have 'calibrated it' and yet to try it again. We shall see if it still drifts.
I was looking for a video comparing these two gimbals. I could only find your video on TH-cam. I have been writing down the differences between the two for a few days . But you explained all the differences in a few minutes. Your video was great
Im not against in any brand but I just bought the Rs3 Mini and today Rs3 Mini is the cheapest on our online store. The newer zhiyun crane 3s are much more expensive and yet support a1kg payload and i think its just for mobile
Dope comparison. I have the Weebil S and its been great. I fly it with my Sony FX30 with a decently weighted lens with the matte box with EASE... I am glad someone other than me is still using that gimbal because I love mine. The RS3 Mini looks like a great gimbal though.
@@nightfury2286 Hey, I still use it. The locks on it don't work anymore but I don't have any major problems with it. I don't need to upgrade yet since it still meets my needs. Are you interested in getting one?
Always dig the content man! I've used the weebil s for quite awhile to get some awesome shots for my channel. But i have ran into the arm lock mechanisms stop being able to lock; otherwise great gimbal for its age and price! Carries an A7iii with sigma 24-70 no prob🤘🤘
was thinking to upgrade to the rs3 pro from the zhiyun weebil s, this made me realise the rs3 pro will s*** all over the weebil s, considering even the mini does. Thank man! great vid
Great presentation. I believe Zhiyun gimbals are just better and best bang for your buck overall. We use the weeble S and crane 3s flawlessly in our productions.
i want to buy a gimbal. but i'm very confused which one to buy for my Canon eos 80D + 50mm prime lens.Between weebill-s & Dji Rs3 mini . i make shorts & cinematic vlog video ...please help me Sam. which one i'll buy? or any other option in this budget .
I have the weebill s and I have hade it for a while now, and I never had any problems with it, I bring it with me on every shoot I still use the ronin m for most things but I break the weebill s out when I’m in tight spaces and it has never failed me
Great video, Terry! I have a Weebill-S for a fairly heavy rig. It does great! I'm used to the UI, so that doesn't both me. Big Weebill Plus for me: I love using a second arm where the underslung handle goes. It really helps with fatigue and extra stability. Big Weebill Miss for me: I wish I could do vertical video.
Great comparison Terry thanks! I'm very happy with my Weebill-S and I agree about the location of the bottoms, but It's one simple thing to lock the keys! generally I can wait a generation or even two till I will pay double price to get even better upgrades (: keep make those dope videos!
Back to the drawing board for Zhiyun I guess. They should focus not on keeping the price low but rather on making sure to give what customers want in terms of performance and usability. This video clearly shows that even with the almost $100 difference the RS3 Mini is still the preferred choice even if it is pretty basic.

If someone uses a Sony fx6 on this they might not from earth. There are plenty of other stronger gimbals are in the market. Then why use a heavier camera on a small gimbal.
Yes…I use it professionally often still. Don’t have any experience with DJI models so can’t compare, but Weebill S performs great, also good battery life

it's nice that there are options but I have to admit that the dji is significantly ahead compared to the others
Not!!!
yeap i agree
Literally been comparing these two because before the weebill S was the smallest cheapest option but DJI overcame them with this gimbal especially with the options and usability, thanks for giving an honest review!
the rs3 mini is a game changer in 2023,its more advanced and has got alot of advantages compared to the zhiyun gimbals 🎥
What about battery life? Weebill s has changeable battery. I am confused
Nope, not at all. ALl those gimbal doing the same basic job. Its about how you are used to use one over the other
The deal breaker is the battery swapping.
That was the reason why I bought the Weebill in the past.
The problem with built-in batteries is they can deteriorate over time and you have to change the whole device itself as it can no longer hold a 100% charge

How about if use gh 5 with cage and 10-25mm f1.7 lens, can shoot vertically still?
@@StanTregubenko I’m sure you can

I got the rs3 mini for my on the go cam and I honestly love it. I also see you working the Lumix into the video. 🙌🏾🤣
Great video. Thx for the insight and comparison between these. I had been leaning towards the RS3 mini, and this helps settle it for me
Thanks for super detailed and techi review! u covered all the important stuff without overloading info. you got a new sub man!
I've been looking for this review! Appreciate you, bro!
I quit buying gimbals after I got the Weebill S. Plus I got it used pretty cheap.
I own both and love the rs3 mini more than the weebill s.
I have the RS3 mini and it's the perfect travel gimbal. Payload to size and the features just make it perfect.
I was looking for a video comparing these two gimbals. I could only find your video on TH-cam. I have been writing down the differences between the two for a few days . But you explained all the differences in a few minutes. Your video was great
for you which one are the best ?
I'm old-school I have to have a battery Hot-Swappable system... Weebill-S FTW.

Awesome comparison video thanks!
was thinking to upgrade to the rs3 pro from the zhiyun weebil s, this made me realise the rs3 pro will s*** all over the weebil s, considering even the mini does. Thank man! great vid
thanks dude. helped me choose. good review.
Will it be able to hold up sigma 24-70 with Sony A7iii as I read a lot of reviews saying the view finder rubber sticks to the motor at the back
Great video! You covered everything I wanted to know about these gimbals and helped me decide which one I should get.

Love the RS3 mini so far ! Terry have you managed to change the shutter speed or aperture with the camera attached with the USB cable ?
I just found your channel and I'm dying because of your style of talking head videos. I love it. Keep going. 😅😆
Pretty good straight-on review for sure with a clear opinion on the winner! but I also laughed watching it! You are an entertainer as well!
As old as the Weebil S is, it’s still an amazing gimbal
Over exaggerated some of the issue you came up with for the Weebil but everyone has there opinions but nonetheless good comparison
Fire video! I think im going with the RS3 Mini with my Z6 ii
I have the weebill s and I have hade it for a while now, and I never had any problems with it, I bring it with me on every shoot I still use the ronin m for most things but I break the weebill s out when I’m in tight spaces and it has never failed me
what do you shoot with?
Fantastic review! This was really helpful. Thank you very much!
Can you use either to charge a camera like a powerbank? Some gimbals can do that right?
Great video, Terry! I have a Weebill-S for a fairly heavy rig. It does great! I'm used to the UI, so that doesn't both me.
Big Weebill Plus for me: I love using a second arm where the underslung handle goes. It really helps with fatigue and extra stability.
Big Weebill Miss for me: I wish I could do vertical video.
Isn't there a small after-market L-bracket available for vertical shooting? I have one for my Crane M2. Think it was like $12.
Great video, thank you. Def thinking RS3 Mini.
Why does it say online that the rs3 mini does not have active tracking but here it does please help
Great review thanks so much man 🙌
Love your videos and vibe, Terry! Keep up the great work 💯
Very nice comparison, great points!
I love this channel and it’s reviews!!
amazing comparison Terry , my regards from London 👍
hello would you recommend the dji rs3 mini for my Sony a7iii with a 24-105 lens?
Thanks, your video help me a lot
dope as always that rs3 mini will be mines soon
Gr8 review man👍
A very , very high quality comparison !
Great comparison Terry thanks!

Legit review VERY WELL DONE👍🏾👌🏾
Great comparison, thank you!
This gimbal might be the reason I keep my A7iv and not jump on the S5. We'll see.
Great no BS comparison :)
Brah, as soon as I heard you say "duckets" I knew I was on the right channel 😂😂😂
Good choice! Love my RS3 Mini!
Does the dji connect to iphone as i have a small rig case and mic light on it and reg phone gimbles can’t support its weight but i want a small gimble
so your fave is? let me guess..it comes in black lol
The weebill s is no good long term. mine broke within a year
Hi, in My country $97 difference DJI mini 3, worth it?
Yep

Assuming you don’t own the weebill?
Do you know how old the Weebil S is compared to the Mini Pro 3? This is one bias review. 😅😅😅

Overkill. Get a gimbal made for the device you use. It's a commonly known issue that if a gimbal is overpowered it will have trouble balancing something very light.
That's why they make gimbals specifically for phones. DJI has one.
Have they figured out the Sony A7IV and the weebill s?
It didn’t work for me
@@TerryWarfield Thanks for the reply man! Love your content. Keep up the good work Tight Shirt Terry!
