Awsome video dude I'm here from the no small creators group great channel just subbed I'm so excited now for next video so I think I might just Binge watch your videos 😂
Thanks for that video. Meant to comment on your initial review of the Webill, but decided to do it here, bc my question is accessories related. So I've been wondering how you store the gimbal in your bag and how are you walking around with it in your hand, when it's not stored away. I'd love to store it in the side pocket of my camera bag, instead of putting putting it away completely in my bag. Does that Form factor allow that? Also, are the locks durable enough to leave the gimbal powered off while walking around with it? I'm using a Beholder DS1 and looking to upgrade.
Hey Jake! Thank you man! Quick question: the affiliate link for the EACHSHOT handle you link to takes me to Amazon and says that it is ONLY for Weebill S and specifically "Not for Weebill Lab." I really want to buy the handle for the extra room. Has something changed since this video posted? Or will the EACHSHOT handle actually fit the LAB as well as the S?
Nice video Jake! How have your audio results been? On my Ronin M the motors are so loud that I cant mount a mic on the handles, they just pick up all that motor noise. Anyhow, my Ronin M has broken for the 2nd darn time, and I'm about ready to buy one of these Weebills.
@@JakeSloan Thanks man, it'll be SO NICE to finally get decent audio on a gimbal! Just hoping this thing proves to be reliable- I almost want to buy a second to use as a backup! I shoot with an A6500 with the 10-18 F4, hopefully it all works well on this.
@@JakeSloan Had our first day filming on the trails with Weebill Lab today. It's ok! Total PITA to set it in Follow mode with key lock on (requires phone connecting). Still looking at options for best mic and small HD mounting, but am ordering a handle with your link in a minute here!
Hi Jake! Question: how do you balance the Weebill S with the Rode video micro on the top? Do you just not worry about the tilt axis adjustment where you point the lens up? Any issues?
It doesn't take much more than lowering the arm just a touch since it is so light. You can not worry about it because the Weebill S is pretty strong but I generally try and rebalance anyway. Cheers!
Thanks for an informative and engaging video. When you use your phone as a monitor, are you also able to have the gimbal control the camera? like the red record button? I have a sony a7iii, and I don't believe I'm able to have the phone and weebill both talk to the camera. Thank you again.
I do use the phone app from Zhiyun and then use the gimbal to control the camera. I will make sure my settings are set correctly on the camera for the conditions I am shooting in and then use the gimbal controls from there. Cheers!
Hi, great video. I have Weebill Lab and Atomos Ninja V with a large battery on it. Do you think the small friction ball head would be adequate to mount the Ninja to the gimball?
With a larger battery you will need something that is more heavy duty. This is a fantastic option: amzn.to/2LvXr7p (affiliate link) and gives you the ability to mount other things as well. Cheers!
Thank you for your reviews. I purchased mine last night for my Canon Eos R. I shot a music video with the Ronin S and that killed my wrist. I am hoping that this setup works much better for me.
Hey Jake, I've been agonizing about getting my Weebil S to balance with a Feelworld monitor and that ridiculously stiff HDMI cable it came with. Do you have any links for what worked best for you?
@@JakeSloan thanks bro, i havent because its a hassle to update, bcoz need apple device to download following firmware update, i think i should just borrow one and update it soonest.. thanks for the great info
thanks for the great little review mate ... have you tried the gimbal with a fullframe mirrorless camera and slightly longer lens like 24-105mm f/4? I am planning to get it for that setup but am not sure if it will stabilise properly!
@@JakeSloan many thanks mate, for very useful feedback. That's the thing, I don't wanna get a heavier gimbal for travelling but my only setup will be up coming Lumix S1 and 24-105mm f/4. Which is, roughly 2kg in total weight. This gimbal should carry it according to the specs (3kg max) but am not entirely sure, considering the small size of it. Well, I will be testing it soon, as soon as my pre-order on S1 will be served! Best wishes
Hello Jake - I have thought of another important and useful accessory for the Weebill S, and no doubt something that you may have considered as an entry, which is of course is the Transmount Telescope monopod - for all those elevated overhead shots and can also be used for under slung shots (where you don't want to strain your back by bending down for long takes etc.) I have my Weebill S on order - plus some accessories, that you had already mentioned in your presentation, and I shall definitely obtain the offset handle and a lightweight / thin HDMI cable for my Freeworld MA5 monitor. I will be using a monitor mount, made by 'SMALLRIG' to support the monitor.
Great point. It might be time for me to do a new video. There are some great accessories for the Weebill now and the good thing is they work with both the lab and the S. Cheers!
Hi Jake, another Jake here, I just got the weebil today, April 4, and finding that mounting a monitor is not necessary. The motor is low enough and out of the way. Bummer because I bought a Shinobi monitor to use with this but I guess I will use for another setup
Jake Sloan I actually asked Sony directly about the IBIS being disabled when you turn your camera to PC Remote. They stated that it does NOT affect the IBIS. ???
Hi,Jake,for Weebill,I have some not very good ideas,the first is about the APP.the Android version is too terrible,second is the button design is very easy to make a wrong operation,Third is about the function menu,you have to save something and then go to next step,but that isn't you want.....I want to return my weebill
Hey Jack, great video as I had this gimbal for months and just decided to buy the quick connect. So as you said in the video you need to buy 2 quick connects in order to have one mount for each of the handle placements. I didn't realise this before buying so I was disappointed to find that I can only use the quick connect on either the top or bottle of the weebill :( Do I really need to buy 2 or do you know if you can buy just the plastic part seperately. Thank you
@@JakeSloan Thanks for the response Jake :) That's a really big shame considering all I need is just the top connector part. I wish they supplied 2 of them. Looks like I need to spend another 20 dollars which isn't much but seems a bit greedy of Zhiyun
@@JakeSloan Jake Sloan Yeah I suppose they'll be a use for me too :) I've been using the weebill with the A7III strictly for travel videos. Basically as the weebill is such a small gimbal I wanted to know if you know of any bags (sling bags) that can accommodate the A7III and weebill already attached and ready to go. There are should bags that can fit the 2 inside but it's too heavy for long travels. Thanks
9:02 😳 is that an Xmas tree 🤔 . . . . . . what ? 🧐 I know I'm weird image a future where all these are integrated into a camera And that camera integrated into your . . . . 🤓 Your....
you are the first person to say that you need 2 quick realeses in order to work, i was looking all youtube till now, thanks thanks thank you very much
Certainly glad I could help!
Just the video I needed! Wanted to buy this gimbal, but didn’t want to run my phone as a monitor!! Thanks!
You’re welcome!!
Just got my Zhiyun Weebill Lab. Thanks for the info.
Fantastic enjoy it!
Been looking for accessories like these for ages. Thanks for getting them all in one place!
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching
So helpful, thank you from ireland
Fantastic! Glad it helped!! Cheers
Great video. Thanks for handle grip I havent seen this before. :)
You're welcome
Thanks Jake great video started my day off right
thanks rick!
Awsome video dude I'm here from the no small creators group great channel just subbed I'm so excited now for next video so I think I might just Binge watch your videos 😂
thanks
This was entertaining 😆 I’m actually considering the mic + arm, so I don’t have any obstructions when getting broll.
thanks
another link for the extra handle ... the one in the description is not available
Hmmm I’ll see if I can correct it
I just got mine. But I think the motord makes a little sound. Is it normal?
Mine makes a tiny bit of sound but not enough to be heard on the camera mic. Of course mine has traveled in a lot of bad weather too.
That's amazing...i'm gonna get a couple of those accessories
Awesome
Make a video on how u use a zoom lens with the gimbal were u zoom in and out on the fly - I've been wondering if this possible
with the motor it is
Great little camera accessories. So many choices. Cheers
Thanks Ispike

Thank you for the video, I just ordered weebill lab with phone holder. Can I use mat phone as a monitor without the transmitter?
if you go the weebill lab then the transmitter is built in

Jake Sloan I am just hoping that the weevil can Eosr and a Tamron 24-70 G2.
TY
Is the Weebill strong enough to hold ALL of those accessories plus the camera + lens?? No jerking.
it is because most of them are mounted on the gimbal not on the camera
can you make a video talking about shooting in winter Alaska? will have a trip to fairbanks next Feb!
Oohhh you know I was just thinking about shooting something like that!! Stay tuned it’s coming soon
Hey Jake, I've been agonizing about getting my Weebil S to balance with a Feelworld monitor and that ridiculously stiff HDMI cable it came with. Do you have any links for what worked best for you?
I use a very thin HDMI cable from amazon but I can't remember which one exactly
I like those list.. but when "dolly in" i got this weird quick panning when using this gymbal.. eventhough in lock mode
@@JakeSloan thanks bro, i havent because its a hassle to update, bcoz need apple device to download following firmware update, i think i should just borrow one and update it soonest.. thanks for the great info

hi Jake, any idea can share where to buy the camera handle (as your video)? thanks
I think I put a link in the description
Can anyone get me a link to the small grip arm for a monitor...the one he has is not the same as the one in the video
in the description
@@JakeSloan thanks man
Is the articulating arm strong enough to hold the Feelworld F6 monitor?

Thanks jake
Thank you!
Thanks. Can you control exposure from the gimbal?
