- Is this large gimbal Zhiyun Crane 2S Successor? Could this Crane4 be the best gimbal for large mirrorless cameras in 2023? In this video I compare the Crane 4 with Weebill 3S and hint at some difference between Crane 2S. With a proper arm length, this Zhiyun can finally compete with DJI RS3 and RS 3 Pro. There are pros and cons of this gimbal you need to know. Watch until the end for more sample footage.

Great tutorial Mr. Park. My Crane 4 just delivered today, and I am enjoying the comparison difference between it and my Crane 3. Thank you for the tips. I am using it for an upcoming wedding, and your tips will help me overcome a few obstacles.
I like that it comfortably works with a BMPCC 6k pro. And honestly, that's all I'd need it to do.
I'm just curious how do you pull focus with this setup being that you're using the bmpcc 6k pro? I noticed this gimbal doesn't come with a focus motor like the rs3
Thanks for the comprehensive review Se! Sucks about the low angle shots but thanks for sharing the solutions!
Thanks Mario! I think I can do the Maverick fast enough to make this work 😁
Great Video Dude! It was nice Meeting you yesterday at the B&H Expo definitely I gotta drive down to D.C. for an episode!!!
Same here Rick! Let’s get it! 🙌🤜
thank you so much you just provided the info that i needed ... Crane 4 it is ... i was on the fence of the crane4 or DJI . the crane 4 combo is amazing.
Thoroughness with excellence and galant graciousness, Se! You have the gift of lift. Gamsahamnida, dear friend and brother!
And you have your way of thoughtful words. Gamsahamnida Glen! 😄🙏
9:52 That Inverted Low Angle Tilt Up shot is so important to me whenever I have to film dance videos. Thanks for bringing this up. It’s a shame they don’t have any Nato rail attachments on the sides, because the inverted mode is really annoying with one handle especially for longer shooting.
It’s my favorite angle too especially with a wide lens. Good point about having dual handle when you are inverted. It would be cool if the side handle could flip. I’m taking notes. Thanks!
Quick question: can this do POV mode when it’s inverted?
Damn I was so excited for this gimbal but as someone who primarily shoots dance the low angle problem is a deal breaker 😔 thanks for the heads-up!
Great solution!
Hey, what will you suggest for beginner cinematographer, dji rs3 pro or crane 4??
Awesome video bro 🎥🤙🏻🔥
Hey, thanks my dude!!
Hi Park, Thanks for the video and explanation, test footage says no post ( 24fps no wrap) stabilization, is it in camera stabilization was on or off or standard or active? Pls let me know. Thanks a ton for all your hard-work.
Hi, good question and thanks so much. IBIS was on standard mode for my Sony camera, which is how I use my gimbals. One could argue that I should turn that off for the test but I thought this is the most realistic scenario.
Are the shots with IBIS on or is it off?
Brotha have you used this with the ProAim Airwave V5? My 3S works great but I feel the Crane 4 would do a better job stabilizing footage doing roller shots for cars.
thank you for presentation. Someone has use sony FS5MKII on Crane 4 ? FS5 is not in compatibility list but FX6 is.... i need advice
Hey hey Se-Se! I’m still on my DJI Osmo 6, but it’s always good to watch your reviews in case I feel like spending the rent money on stuff I personally don’t need (ie the Onion dolly rail I never used). I have a loft full of such items 😂.
Haha my coupon code is good all year around. Gimbal depreciate fast so you want to get the right one when you get your gear lined up. You know who to talk to when you are ready! 😁👍🤜 Appreciate you still watching it!
@@SeParkcheers mate. I do indeed. I still do all my videos with an iPhone, but I’m considering upping my game to the Sony ZV-1 soon. I’ll need a new gimbal then for sure and I’ll make sure I get one via your affiliate link.
those are pretty solid solutions to that achilles heel. great review Se!
Hey Mike! Thanks my dude. If I’m gonna talk about a problem, I better have a solution 😄
@@SePark that and some signature names for those solutions hahaha
on the C3s the only complaint i have is that the shaft where the gimbal arms connect to the stick seems to be getting loose, is that an issue on the new C4
Yeh I remember Crane 3S arms feeling like industrial metal arm. 😆 The adjustment contact points felt like it too. Crane 4 feels less industrial and more like camera gear but only time will tell. The metal parts are definitely machined better.
i don't have any hands-on experience with this product but I think it would be better if the it lost the fill light or it was optional. Great review though - very useful.
Hello friend! Can I ask you one question? What products should I buy for F38 Quick Releases? Is there a CRANE4 exclusive product on the market?
I like the flip fixes at the end but if you have an external monitor attached to the gimbal stick, the cable from camera to monitor might get twisted.
You’re right. Both flip methods would be challenging if you have an external monitor. It would be overkill but you would need a built in wireless monitor. Good point! Thanks for that comment!
I bought one last week but i found big problem on it, its not turning on ! given me error message ! i don't know how i can fixe this problem !
Good video. Unfortunately, I'm looking for something that will handle an Ursa Mini with Canon CNE (cinema lenses) lenses. So this is probably not the gimbal for me.
I realllllllly wish they would have added a feature to lock and unlock all of the axises at the same time like the RS3 Pro.
First time watching your video and I can tell you’re good at this. No fluff. Just well spoken and knowledgeable.
Falcam f38 for the win! Lol 😂 Great breakdown as always! Gimbal king! Man Disney footage before the COVID…..darn that COVID!!!! The maverick!! Lol your such a pro! Great video dude!
Falcam F38 gang! F38 sounds like something Maverick would use. Thanks Paul!
I'm surprised they abandoned the crane 3/ 3s design
Crane 4 bye last month
In India in Delhi
But no power on how to solve this problem...ple
Can this gimbal handle the A7SIII + Tamron 35-150? or more chances with the Crane 2S
Now that's a beast of a lens! Good question. It's not in the list of compatible lenses for Sony + Crane 4, but then again it doesn't list a lot of the third party lenses. I have not tried it myself with Crane 4, but I have tried it with Crane 2S. My guess is that it would balance at 35mm, but it would be tight if you try to balance it in the middle. May have to ditch the cage too. Buddy of mine has that lens. If I see him, I'll try it.
I thought on the new crane 4 you could go between horizontal and vertical shooting at the push of a button????
It has a Portrait Mode, you can switch it in the menu of the gimbal.
Another reviewer mentioned that inverting the camera on a car mount made it unstable. Your inversion trick doesn't seem unstable to me. What version of the firmware were you running?
The video was made during 1.76 firmware. I am running 1.78 now. Haven’t had any stability issue inverted but still waiting on the low angle inverted joystick fix.
Hey Shawn, I just ran into the video you mentioned. If you're talking about Armando's video, yes I have seen that wobble. If the motor strength is set to high and if I don't hold the gimbal tight while going inverted, the gimbal sometimes gets confused trying to center itself constantly and shakes like that. So I can see how that could be a problem on a car mount vibration isolator. When I turn down the motor power and hold the gimbal firmly while inverted, that issue goes away. So yeh this would be an easy firmware fix also.
@@SePark Ah, so it's a simple fix. 😎
Unfortunately, I just got my Weebill 3s combo. I use a Nikon D810. I thought it could handle it with my 85mm lens. But, the balance just doesn't balance. And it's my fault for just seeing it can handle a D-SLR. But, only specific ones. I looked at a LOT of video reviews of the Weebill 3s and didn't think to go look at the actual website since I was getting it on Amazon. Turns out they have a compability section. After trying to get a "perfect balance" and not really getting due to weight/spacing, I saw the Crane 4 is it. Which makes sense seeing the size of it compared to the Weebill 3s. I will say I'm majorly disappointed because everything was pointing to the 3s. Oh well. I'll return it and be do more research.
Ple slove crane 4 glimble power on issues
crane 4 or dji rs3 pro?
Here I've been torn between the Weebill 2 on clearance for $299 or getting the Weebill 3S this past few weeks. Now I've got another option with the fact this one can handle the weight of the 24-120 🤣😭
Haha these days you have a lot of choices. Weebill 2 camera cradle space is little larger than Weebill 3 and 3S. Using a cage elevates the camera position and it will also require you to have a larger camera cradle space. Of course it depends on your budget too.
Get the 3s for sure, it's amazing with the lights
how heavy is the crane 4 compared to the weebill3s?
About 0.6kg heavier than Weebill3s.
@@HellenLee-yz2oj so basically the same then?
@@jeffrey3205 No, crane 4 with stronger Motor strength to hold the bigger cameras. You can refer their web camera support list.
The fact that Zhiyun doesn't list a payload number for their gimbals gives me no faith that this company is doing its due diligence to make sure these gimbals are capable and reliable machines. Imagine selling a car without telling people how much horsepower is available. It's one of the most critical specs when purchasing something like this.
i realyl hate this form factor. i wish they would go back to the original weebil s design
I do know what you mean. Weebill S and Lab shape was legendary! That was prime gimbal innovation times. I'm hoping that era comes again.
@@SeParkdesign was elite, but QC was poor with lots of internal problems
My last gimbal I purchased was the Crane M3. I purchased this gimbal as an extra sturdy support for my Samsung flagship camera phone. Unfortunately, the forward/back arm was too short and would not extend enough for the tall camera phone even though it was much lighter than a mirrorless rig. If the gimbal of that cost ($400 at the time) can't balance a mere camera phone out of the box, then I'd rather get something else that can.
Thing is, with all the reviews on youtube, not a single one used a flagship Samsung phone. Only those made by Apple which are smaller. Its not just the weight, its the height as well. More reviewers need to keep that in mind when making these reviews.
Power on issues crane4
Another gimbal 🤔👀
Haha yeh. You’ll get better audio from me now that I can put a shotgun mic on top at all times. 😁
@nVuFilms if you want to be profesional and award winning get the Lab4 for your upcoming videos from now on joke XD, Love your videos man!! Zhiyun every year new gimbals their style selling products. Next year sure Lab4s
Crane4 has a lot of problems and is under stress. Pov is too slow. When you install fx6, it shakes and bounces because of the sling grip. Crane2S Everything is perfect
Crane 2S is legendary. 😁 I think Crane 4 as a large hybrid mirrorless camera gimbal and not a cinema camera gimbal. Basically this is not a Crane 3S successor but a really good “in-between” gimbal between Weebill 3S and Crane 2S. I can see how this is not strong enough for FX6. I know the naming convention can throw people off.
@@SePark which one do u recommended zhiyun crane 2s or weebill 3s as better smoothly for real estate ( vertical & horizontal ) and wedding videos?
Aqui no Brasil, PROCON é um órgão assegurador dos direitos dos cidadãos, então, sim! Eu caí no bait da thumbnail.
For the side handle with foam, I'm pretty sure you can cut the handle and replace it by a nice bike handle with a hand stopper at the extremity, come even have turn signal led just in case 😂😂😂
Don't buy an ergonomic one though because it won't be anymore when you change the handle angle.
Haha you know, that’s a great example. Time for gimbal companies to study some bike handles. 😁
@@SePark let's work together on this one, pretty sure we can make the billion dollars in few weeks, we split 50 50 if that's okay 😂
Why would you compare this to the Webill line at all?? This Crane 4 is clearly the follow up to the Crane um....3...s. Hence Crane 4. Not Webill 4....
Because some people debate which class gimbal to get. Crane 4 is smaller than Crane 2S, which came out after Crane 3S. So the numeric sequence doesn’t mean it’s a follow up. Sure one could compare Crane 4 to Crane 3S, but I’m trying to work with what I got and help out people who are looking at the most recent Zhiyun gimbals.
