    What's your favorite thing about the Smooth 4?

      EMT the click in standby is super handy to keep your phone secure as you move between scene and then ready to film within seconds again.
      How did you find the facial tracking I thought it needed abit of bug fixing on the front facing camera . This was on an iPhone 6 however

      Love my smooth 4, it is my first gimbal, but I love the ease of use I can teach my students to use it very simply. The best part for me is the battery life! It is ridiculous, I do need the usb c to lightning port because my phone can’t last near as long! I’ve noticed the motion time lapse is a bit glitchy tho, have you had this?

      Yes! I really liked this too! The active tracking needs a lot of work. Definitely did not perform like the Osmo Mobile 2 or the SMOVE Mobile. Currently working on editing that comparison! Thanks for sharing! 🤘🏼

    I have a note 9 and ordered the smooth 4. Its flawless. Good thing I gambled with rather than picking up a DJI osmo mobile 2. Its light weight and all functions are working. 4k 60 fps is supported. The only thing not quiete synching is the filmicpro app. I have sent inquiry to filmicpro and is waiting for updates. Really easy to use. Super light weight and handy. And yes motor is sturdy and no unwanted vibrations so far. Worth the price. Bought it only for 100 $ equivalent online brand new.

    I am or let me correct that, was, a sad owner of the Zhiyun Smooth 4.
    It sets in the local land fill now for it's constant software/firmware
    errors. I bought a Moxi two weeks ago and have experienced a gimbal now
    that WORKS. Wish people like you EMT gave something more true. I am
    far from the only person with problems.

  • @CalaisRider
    @CalaisRider 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I've only just started searching but am looking to buy one of these. I recently purchased a Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra and is generally ok for photos (nothing special) but is cumbersome for videos. I love the way the Zhiyun has so many function and setting adjustments whereby you don't need to tap and menu search the phone. That will suit me fine as most of my activity is photos anyway.

    I just got my white Smooth 4. Zowie! What a device! I love the ease of a stabilized shot. So simple. So smooth.
    I’ve had it four days and have done a deep dive into features. I can’t seem to get it to turn on the light to light a shot. They say it’s the center button of the wheel. What’s the secret?
    Thanks for sharing my enthusiasm for this amazing technology. I’m using it mounted on my white BlitzWolf 35” selfie stick BW-BS4. White on white... How cool is that?!

    • @EMTFILMS
      @EMTFILMS  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      It depends on the needs of the user. I feel that the Smooth 4 is extremely robust and the Filmic Pro integration makes this a powerhouse. However, for traveling and for social media vlogs I like the Moza Mini S. Both are fantastic at the end of the day! Hope this helps a bit! 🤘🏼

    QUESTION. I used it with my Samsung Galaxy S8+. But that's now my back-up camera, and I'm using it with my Galaxy S10+. The Smooth 4 quickly gets hot. Can't even tough a gimbal. Is the camera too heavy? Do I need counter-weights? I'm having to go back to my back-up camera (S8+) too often. Your thoughts? Many thanks.

    • @EMTFILMS
      @EMTFILMS  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I also have a S10+ but haven’t had an issue with the Smooth 4. Make sure to re balance when you switch to the S10+. Both the back arm and the grip. Phone should balance facing down while turned off. Hope this helps!

  • @paulybluenose
    @paulybluenose 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi, thx so much for all your videos. I recently switched to the Zhiyun Smooth 4 from the Osmo 2 after it broke... Anyway, I like the Zhiyun but miss the ease of motion timelapse using the Osmo. It feels weird to physically move the phone around in the gimbal arm to the positions I want and sometimes it just seems to freeze up when I do this, it goes limp. I love motion timelapses and its really dissapointing that Im having a hard time figuring out a fail safe method of setting it up to go to the right waypoints..... I would love to see a tutorial on this. I have looked everywhere and can't find one........I would love to know the best techniques and settings for cool motion moves that are possible. I find it really hard to set up a scene with waypoints and those additional cool spin, curve moves ( sorry I forget the correct term ). I would really appreciate any advice on the best settings to set. I love the potential of the Smooth 4 and hope that I can make it happen.....its just that it was so easy on the DJI Osmo 2 to get a basic motion time-lapse........of course again the potential is greater on the Smooth 4 with all the setting options..... Thx have a great weekend.

    hi there! is possible to put on the phone the moondog anamorphic lens ?? does the gimbal will need a counterweight in this case? if so, which counterweight? and does the gimbal supports the iphone 8 plus?? thank you

    • @EMTFILMS

      The gimbal definitely supports iPhone 8 Plus. For the counterweight I recommend the Moment Universal counterweight. Fits any gimbal and it is reasonably priced. Hope this helps!

    Hi there, Liked the video! We have the Smooth4 for almost a year now in combination with the Note8. As you may or may not know the Zhiyhun app doesn't work fully with Android. However I find the gimbal it self has a very good quality / price ratio. As long as the app isn't fully functional for Android I'll use the camera software from the Note8 it self.
    Favorite feature: Beeing able to keep your phone charged whilst filming with the gimbal. Keep up the nice video's and maybe next time 'We'll see you in Mainstreet!'

      Their software is pretty stable but their tracking is definitely not performing like the others. I sure hope on the next device they introduce they address this specific area. Other than that the stabilization is great!

    If you want to use an external microphone on an iPhone then
    be aware that you will need a 90-degree lightning adaptor (which can be
    difficult to get in some countries), a counterweight, and a holder for your
    microphone. The counterweight limits its movements. Does it work - sure, but I would
    never have bought this knowing what I know now. I thought that this was less
    expensive than competitors like DJI Osmo 4, but using all this extra equipment you
    end up spending about that same for a product that is way less elegant and isn’t
    officially supporting heavier phones than iPhone 11. Zoom/focus wheel is nice,
    but you will need a bigger screen to see what you are doing, and you must get
    used to the delay. I personally don’t find great uses for Vertigo mode, but if
    that is incredibly important to you then go for it.

Good technique on your videos and thanks for the Union Square shots - being a NY native and NYU guy, made me miss home. I’ve subscribed and look forward to more quality vlogging

    I've had many different gimbals in my professional career as a cinematographer. I think I also have tried just about all the cell phone gimbals out in the market. I definitely chose and use this Smooth 4 over DJi and all the other gimbals out there. My biggest reason is that this gimbal pairs up very nicely with Filmic Pro. Only DJi and the Zhiyun Smooth 4 are supported with Filmic Pro. My choice is definitely the Smooth 4. Now it does have some short comings especially and sadly to say in the tracking feature. But as I mentioned before, I am a professional cinematographer and as a professional cinematographer, we don't use auto tracking. That feature is mostly used by rookies. Manual focus is what is used in the pro industry. As for the ZY Play app ... it has many features but its very twitchy. I stick with the Filmic Pro app which is more stable and professional. Hope this helps.
