- The Zhiyun Weebill S vs the Ronin SC a comparison of the two best travel gimbals on the market in 2019. Which travel gimbal is best? It depends on what you need. The Weebill S holds more weight and larger lenses for mirrorless cameras and stabilizes them easily. The Ronin SC has some of the best tracking and other smart features of any gimbal currently on the market. The Bottom line is the Weebill S or the Ronin SC will both give you smooth stable gimbal shots. The Weebill S and the Ronin SC will both be excellent gimbals for you but which one is best depends on your needs.

I used two different cameras to show how much having IBIS can help when using gimbals but I also turned IBIS off to do a more direct comparison. I only had access to these two cameras and a very limited amount of time to film this video.
I realize it isn't ideal
@@JakeSloan I was under the impression the Ronin SC can mount the a7 III, is there a reason you didn't just use the same camera for both gimbals? I ask because I have heard the RSC can be finicky when it comes to heavier cameras like the a7 III and wanted to know if that was one of the reasons. If it does, do you have you any experience with this setup? This is one of the questions I am considering when deciding if I should go with the a6600, which has an IBIS system closer to what is found in the a7 III, and pairing it with a decent lens and the Ronin SC to maximize portability and functionality. I have been wondering after watching videos though if it'd be better to go with the a7 III and the Zhiyun Weebill S and a decent lens, even though its around $1000 more to do so properly. I just have a sinking feeling I'll spend the money to get setup with the a7 III so late in the game that I'll instantly wish I had waited for the a7 IV instead. Hard decisions, but I appreciate content like yours helping me make an informed decision. Great information overall, well filmed, and straight to the point. That's a sub from me.
hello sir, can i use z6ii with those?
If you’re using Weebill s instead of Ronin sc
Make this blue 👍🏻
lol. I still use both but the weebill S has become my go to
The best review on the comparison on youtube. Beautiful location.
Thank you so much!!
@@JakeSloan Where was it shot? It looks like Sarek, Sweden to me, but it could very well be Canada... :)
@@rikarde2937 This was shot at Eklutna Lake in Alaska. Cheers!!
Do you think Weebill will go well with Sony 6400?
Thank you, I was waiting for your comparison review and I is as great as expected! Great job!
Thank you very much! Appreciate it a lot. Did you decide to buy one or the other? Or both 😜?
Jake Sloan still can’t decide. I used a lot of DJI and Zhiyun products and was happy with all of them. User Interface / App is usually a bit better on DJI products.
I use a Sony a6300 and don’t plan to upgrade to a7 (most likely another a6.00 series)
I’d say:
+ Weebill: Form Factor, Battery, a bit stronger/stabile due to stronger motors I guess (Zhiyun Crane-M was weak during wind)
+ DJI: Active Track, Force Mobile, Price.
Not sure if I a will need/use the DJI features.
Best comparison/review out there. Just the important stuff and straight to the point in plain English. Your maturity is evident. Thank you.
Thank you
Looking forward to your settings video on the Weebill S. Once I get the hang of using a Gimbal it is going to be amazing I can already tell. Nice video comparison!
Oh yes. You made a great choice my friend! It’s going to be a GREAT gimbal for you.
For the first time I am seriously looking at a gimbal for my mirrorless camera. Watched your first take on the Weebill S and this one with the Ronin. Very helpful information. I have wanted something small and lighter weight after many commenting about how heave a gimbal can be. And I wanted versatility in movement. The Weebill S looks to be what I want. Object tracking would be great on the Ronin but I think I can work around what the Weebill has. Thanks for sharing.
Both of these gimbals are very light compared to others on the market. The Weebill S def shoots some of the most stable footage of any small gimbal I’ve used so far. I’ll have a few more videos coming on how to use the Weebill S and setup settings etc in the next week or two. I hope they help and thanks for watching!! Cheers
great vid, thanks for all your hard work on this, its much appreciated.
You're welcome!
Thanks for the great video👍
I was gonna get the ronin sc but this review changed my mind and gettin the weebill s🎉
Thanks again for the tip!
so glad it helped!! Enjoy it
Thanks for sharing the comparison Jake. Enjoyed watching cheers 👍🙌
Thanks Adrian! Cheers mate. 😁
Great review. I just got 2 of them for my wife and I to use. I'm also coming from the Crane 2 but I might sell that one after we play with the Weebill S. Great audio in the outdoors!!
I think you'll find the Weebill S is a big upgrade for you!
I don't even have to watch more than 15 seconds of your video and am in awe of the scenery around you. Amazing.
Thanks!
Thank you Jake 🙌🏻 . Nice comparison 💯
You're welcome!
Excellent comparison! keep the great work!
Thanks and I will do my best!!
The Weebill S footage looked smoother.
It is better at stabilizing with its stronger motors but if you had a camera with Ibis on the ronin Sc or the Weebill s it becomes much more difficult to see much of a difference
Nope ... in my opinion this is a really bad setup Ronin SC and Zhiyun sponsored movie offcourse 😀
MagicGateCinema that’s true
@@MagicGateCinema ?
Could it be because there's an ibis-enabled camera on it? 🤔
Using completely different cameras on two gimbals kinda defeats the purpose of the comparison
Awesome review Jake you have just made my mind up thank you....
Excellent glad I could help!
Thank you for the review! Really help me to choose..
Excellent I’m glad I could help! Which one did you decide on and why? I’m curious to know lol. Cheers!
Very clear and straight forward, thank you!
You're welcome!
Hey Jake, great comparison!
Ty
Both great gimbals but as you know I’m a huge Zhiyun Weebill fan..great video Jake
Yes I do know lol. They are both great gimbals but much like cameras they each have their strengths and as such there is no perfect gimbal... yet 😜
Nice clear review/comparison. Many Thanks
You're welcome thanks for watching!
Super useful comparison thank you!
You’re welcome!!
Hi There Jake. Great honest comparison. Im going with the Weebill. Subbed and liked for some cool future content! Thanks for the video! :)
Thank you so much! Great choice on the gimbal. I’ll have a few more videos coming showing how to setup and use the gimbal app and modes etc. cheers!
great video jake!! keep up the good work!! SUBSCRIBED!!
Thank you!
Great comparison, thank you!!
Thank you for watching!
Thank you! This is very helpful and exactly what I needed.
Excellent. So glad I could help! Which one would you choose?
@@JakeSloan Weebill-S. Was balancing between this and the Ronin SC.
Great choice. I’ve really been enjoying using mine. It’s been incredibly stable in all kinds of environments
Weebill S is everything I wanted the original Weebill lab to be. Preordered it yesterday for my GH5S.
Being able to fine tune the settings right from the handle is a huge selling point for me. Will easily take my 10-25 f/1.7 with focus motor as well. Good job Ziyhun!
Agreed! I loved the Weebill lab when I had it but really wanted some of the features they have now included in the Weebill s. I’m glad they have listened to people who gave them feedback and incorporated that into the S model. After using the Lab the Ronin SC and now this for the last month the S takes much heavier setups and handles them with ease! Cheers and hope you enjoy your Weebill S when it arrives!!
Hey i plan to have the same setup (gh5s + Weebill s), could you tell me how things went?
Thanks for the great comparison !
You're welcome!
Wow! Great video. Thank you. And fantastic location... Can't wait to visit Alaska.
Thanks!
I saw the comments that most of people are an the Zhiyun’s side. However, there is one thing that you guys didn’t mentioned. A6400 doesn’t have image stabilization, but a7iii does. If you want to test these two gamble’s performance, please load the same camera at least. Anyway, the result of the two gamble’s performance comparison is not fair.
Hulk I tested both cameras with ibis off (toward the end of the video) and then I turned ibis on the a7iii on you show the difference it makes too.
Jake Sloan so please tell me, why I have DJI ronin sc with a7riii + 24GM 1.4 can get a really good smooth shot? There is no shaking in the footage. Otherwise you set up wrong of roninsc
I can get a really smooth shot as well. Especially with ibis on. But with ibis off and not trying to walk extremely smoothly either gimbal will have shakes. I didn’t try and walk super smoothly so it’s a more real world test for most people who don’t use gimbals every day and are walking over un even ground.
Great review. Thanks!
Absolutely! Thanks for watching!!
I’m lucky Best Buy let me return the crane 2 I purchased 2 weeks ago. Just purchased the S. Thank you for the video.
Awesome so glad you were able to!
Hey Jake, loved the video! Please consider having the music less loud when you’re talking. Subscribed to your channel anyway
I have moved away from music in my videos when I am talking. Thanks for the feedback!
Thank you very much, your video is very instructive and helpful !
Fantastic glad I could help!
Great comparison video, thanks Jake! ..and finally someone who chooses a beautiful location for a tech review :)
Another factor for me is product support. Have dealt with both over the last years and here DJI is simply waaay ahead of Zhiyun. Keep it up!
That’s true! I haven’t had to deal with Zhiyun tech support so I cannot personally comment on it but I do know DJI generally has quite good tech support! I happened on this location just after the sun came out and the clouds went away so it was really great to film in. Which gimbal do you use or which one would you choose? Cheers!
Jake another awesome video. Love your work and I am looking in doing similar kind of work / imagery minus vloging. I started with the Ronin SC though just returned it because of the release of the webill s and the fact that one of my lenses is the Sony 24-70/2.8 GM. What would be really helpful if at all possible is you doing a tutorial on how you step up your A7lll for gimbal work, I.e. focus settings and other tips that would be helpful. Curious with all the outdoor shooting you do what Sony Picture Profile do you like using ? Thanks again
Thanks Steven! I have been planning to do a video on how I set up my camera for shooting for a while now and you have pushed me to do it sooner rather than later lol. Stay tuned! On the picture profile I use PP1 but I changed the default quite a bit after using EOS HD pro color v4 settings for a bit. I then adjust the contrast shadows and highlights just a little bit in post. This video was particularly challenging to shoot. Strong backlighting and rapidly constantly changing from harsh sun to no sun kept me adjusting things constantly lol. Cheers and thanks again!
As always, another incredible video thank you so much for taking the time to compare these 2 gimbals. It seems to me if you are a simple run and go videographer And just want great stabilization with differences Camera and lens combos... without the fancy active track, the DJI is not the winner... i’ve been watching several videos about the new weeble lab and it’s crazy how much the payload is !!! Love your content!! Also I know that’s green screen because you actually live in LA right? Haha #jealous #Alaska
ROFL yeah it's all green screen and stock footage 😜. Thanks Bryan!!
Great review! Still don't know which one to get though haha. It's so difficult to come down to a decision, I've never used a gimbal or any other type of stabiliser before!
either the ronin SC or weebill S would be a great place to start! check your camera and make sure the gimbal is compatible with it before you purchase one though!
@@JakeSloan I have finally decided on the Weebill S! Thanks again for a good review!
Definitely want to get my hands on the full Weebill S set-up, follow focus and the works, looks so bloody good.
It’s a great gimbal for sure!!
Great Comparison, Thanks for doing all that leg work for a true comparison. I do whitewater video and Photos and thinking about a gimbal in my work flow.
Excellent. I’m really glad it helped you!!
Great comparison. Super nice location!
Thank you so much! Which gimbal would you choose?
Do I need the transmission module in order to use my smartphone as a second monitor for Zhiyun? And can you also program some focus points on Weebill in order to film yourself (saw in the dji app you can mark some spots where the camera should focus and what speed etc.). I have a sony a7iii and would love to go with the ronin-sc but it seems like Weebill-S is overall the better choice except for the app itself (also can handle my 16-35f4).
If you camera has WiFi and an app to monitor through then now. If you camera doesn’t have an app or you don’t want to plug a small external monitor directly into the camera then yes you will need the image transmission module to monitor video wirelessly. I have a video coming up focused on the wireless image transmission system!
For me the most important matter for deciding for the Weebill S was, that it is much smaller und less heavy than the Ronin SC. It is easier to transport the Weebill S as an „always with you gear“
When you are travelling and making tours everybody knows what I’m talking about.
When you buy in addition the SmallRig handheld for this Gimbal you can fix on it a second monitor. A second monitor with good quality is a must have when you shoot in bright sunlight, because on the normal camera screens and smartphone panels you see nothing in bright sunlight.
Also important is the camera compatibility for operating it with the gimbal.
True. The weebill S is a fantastic gimbal all around
They both seem like nice gimbals, I'm considering getting on of them for my mirrorless camera. I've always like Zhiyun Phone gimbals.
If I had to pick one today I would go for the weebill S. It has proven itself very reliable
Jake Sloan Zhiyun also has refurbs for $240 now!! The Weebill S looks tiny, like the size of the original Dji Osmo Mobile phone gimbal but obviously much stronger. Osmo Mobile couldn’t hold my iPhone 8+
True!
Wow. Great comparision , thanks a lot Jake.
Did you have any picture profiles on the A7iii? The blues and dynamic range in general are so much more better than the a6400. sure, it is a different league of camera but that different?
Thanks! I use the standard Picture profile
Great vid Jake, loads of info though I still am undecided which is best for me,
I will be using the A6400,so no IBIS, paired with Sigma 16mm F1.4 and sony 18-105 f4,.....
what you guys recommend out of the two,which I know are both awesome btw.
Thanks in advance and hope you're all staying safe.
Thanks Ed! I would highly recommend the Weebill S for your setup.
Great job Jake, thnx a lot.
You're welcome thanks for watching!
Excellent Review, cut to the chase style 👍. Going to pick up the Weebill
Excellent choice! I’ve hardly picked up the robin sc since getting the weebill s.
@@JakeSloan Never really been a fan of DJI when all there stuff is app related. I Just need a solid tool which gets the job done haha
We are in the market for a gimbal to help stabilize our travel footage. We have the A7iii, 16-35 GM, and the Rode Pro Plus. It looks like the Weebill S can handle the weight of our gear. My questions, how would you mount the Pro+ so that it doesn't interfere with the gimble movements (underslung mode ~ for example)?
Also, just curious, what software are you using to edit your footage?
Hey! I use Final Cut Pro X to edit with. Davinci resolve is another great option if you’re not Mac based. The weebill S would def handle that weight and they make this little thing here to move the mic off to the side of the camera amzn.to/3fim9pd (Affiliate link) so the mic won’t interfere with the camera movement!
@@JakeSloan Great! Thank you.
Amazing review. Subb'd love your content.
Thank you very much!!
this is very helpful and straight forward i have subscribed! i am using the crane plus and i really don't like it much. i would have
gone with the crane 2 but i am petite and its kinda big and heavy. i do use zoom lenses so i think the weebil s will work for me.
i need mostly for architectural video.
The Weebill S works really well for heavier setups! I carry mine in hand for most the day without too much trouble while filming and moving between locations. It's a really great option. cheers and thanks for subscribing!
Jake, have you had any issues going from underslung mode to normal with your Weebil? Seems there are comments re: this problem which I've read about today. Good work, as usual from you.
I haven't but I also haven't upgraded to the latest firmware yet. I had heard that it had issues
Great comparison! I have an Olympus OM-D EM1 mark II camera that is not included in any of those gimbals' compatibility lists.
Which features are not going to work in my case (e.g. will Focus Wheel work through Focus Motor)?
DJI has not been able to give me any detailed answer in this matter ...
I don't know but have you looked at the compatibility list on Zhiyun's website? It might provide some answers
The Weebil is my favorite, it also stabilizes better from what I've seen, and that's the most important thing at the end if the say for me... the form factor also is nicer imo
I agree the Weebill is fantastic and much more powerful than the ronin Sc
I got the SC 6 months ago. Today i wish i bought the Weebill-s. There are so many small things wrong with the SC that are not abvious without a few weeks of testing.
Wow really? I used the Ronin SC for 8 months and still use it from time to time and I didn't find that much that was wrong with it
Well, I bought my SC before the release and I wish there was a way to return it... Build quality is definitely good on SC but as an overall performer weebill S wins.
I dunno. The SC when setup well does a fantastic job! The Weebill S can def handle more weight but for lighter weight setups the ronin Sc does well
8:11 is that your dog or just so happens to be a great wildlife scene you just so happen to miss happening behind you? I have the Canon EOS R with heavy lenses and it's tough to decide between the RONIN S, SC or the Weebill S. Would a smaller lighter lens work better with the SC with an EOS R?
It was someone else’s dog behind me. They were playing fetch with a stick in the lake lol. I would take a serious look at the Weebill S for your use. If not then the ronin Sc would work with the R and smaller lighter lenses. The Weebill s will work with many heavier lenses though.
Would you still recommend the Weebill if I'm just gonna shoot with the a7mk3 and tammy 28-75mm? I dunno if I should go with Ronin SC or Weebill.
I would still highly recommend the Weebill S for the best stabilization. If you plan to use smart features like motion time-lapses motion tracking etc then the Ronin SC still wins. Either one will work well but DJI is also having a sale at the moment which depending on your budget might help you make up your mind: click.dji.com/ANSvoAn3xa7-aF7IyCHStQ?pm=link (affiliate link)
Very good, thank you, orderd the weebill
fantastic choice. Cheers!
Amazing location! Where was this shot?
edit - looks like you're in Alaska. Beautiful!
Yes Alaska the place I call home lol. You can see lots of Alaska in my videos. It provides a wonderful backdrop!
Jake Sloan Live in Alaska too, just sub I want start a channel too from the Last Frontier!
Thanks for a great review. Do you need the separate image transmission module and phone bracket to use your phone as a simple monitor on the Weebil?
You will need to buy the image transmission module and the phone bracket separately or wait till they offer the image transmission pro package for the weebill s. If your camera offers built in wireless image transmission through an app then you would just need a phone holder to attach to the weebill or use an HDMI monitor and HDMI cable from your camera but that won't be wireless.
The phone bracket is here: geni.us/KxgcB (affiliate link)
@@JakeSloan Thanks for the quick reply Jake! I'm using the Sony A6500 which I think works with an iPhone but doesn't allow for picture profiles, and might depend on Wifi. Thanks for the bracket link!
Great video - thanks ☺️
For Sony a6400, which one would you recommend me? I mean is Weebill S is great option for a6400?☺️
I would highly recommend the Weebill S now. It’s an excellent gimbal!
@@JakeSloan Thank you so much for the fast response ☺️ yes I thought so but I wasn't sure.. it's even smaller and cheaper ☺️ have a great time.
You’re welcome!
How do you give this a thumbs down? This is so clear, such a good review. Doofuses! Subbed
lol thanks I appreciate that
@@JakeSloan I'm primarily a wildlife, natural history shooter. So, when I see a location like this, I drool a bit. I live in Phoenix area and I have to drive a couple hours or more to find coniferous trees and reasons to wear a jacket or coat! I still have a Zhiyun Crane v2 with my GH5, but it failed me a bit on a very important shoot a couple days ago. I'll attempt to adjust settings, but I think it's time to upgrade. And now the DJI RSC2 is out, so I have to decide if the extra money for it and it's fancy features will serve my less flashy needs vs the Weebil.
Thank you for your wisdom!
You're welcome! Cheers
Jake , great review . If using with Sony A7iii & Tamron 28-75 setup which one you recommend? I need this for my events coverage . Thanks in advance .
I would def look at the weebill S. It’s pretty much all I’ve been using since doing this video. Cheers!
Jake Sloan Thank you Jake . Appreciate your quick reply . 👍
Thanks for the comparison, I've been wondering which one of these to get... Do you know if it's possible to have the active tracking with the Weebill S on a Canon M50, by any chance? It is not on the compatibility list so I wonder...
It does have an hdmi out so I would say yes however for object tracking to work you will need the image transmitter as well.
@@JakeSloan I see, thank you so much for the answer!
Of Course
I’m still undecided between these two. My setup is Sony a6400+Sony E35mm f/1.8+Sigma 16mm f/1.4. I prefer the DJI software, but also prefer the form factor of Weebill S. Which is better in compatibility with my Sony?
They both have the same compatibility for start and stop recording etc. neither one can adjust camera settings from the gimbal
Can you use weebill s with a iPhone? I have an iPhone XS Max and use Moment lenses and it’s always too heavy for smartphone gimbals
I also have a Fujifilm Xt3 so figured maybe I should get one for both
You could but you’d likely have to add some extra weight to get it to balance properly
great review !!!
what camera you are using to shot the begining of review?
thanks
Thank you!! That’s my A7iii and Tamron 17-28. Cheers
Hi Jake, I currently have the A7iii with the Tamron 28-75. I m looking for a gimbal that could give me smooth footage with this combination. I ve tried the Weebill Lab but Im not satisfied with results, the Zhiyun Crane Plus a little bit better but not totally satisfied. My choice is between the Weebill S and Ronin SC. From your video it seems that the Ronin is a little bit shaky, can you confirm? For me having the smoothest result is the must, which one do you think is better for my needs and camera+lens combination? Many thanks and great video!
For that combo the Weebill S is super solid even if the lens is zoomed to its full range after being balanced at 28mm. The Weebill s is def the most stabilizing gimbal right now with larger setups.
@@JakeSloan Thanks man! I will definitely try it!
very useful! thank you.
You’re welcome thank you for watching!
Hey Jake. Thanks for the video. Im about to buy one of them for my Fujifilm XT-4 with XF 18-55mmOIS lens. Just confused about battery issue. Which one do you recommend for my setup? And is the integrated battery a big issue or problem for Ronin SC?
I'd recommend the Weebill S. you can get it for a very good price right now and it is more stable than the ronin SC
I see in the compatible list: Panasonic Panasonic Lumix GH5, being the G9 almost a Gh5, do you think G9 will work with Weebill S?
It should work just fine
Thanks for the review! I went with the Ronin SC for now :) I can't wait to try motion lapse :D
Fantastic! I did some motion timelapses in my ronin Sc review and I really like it.
Hey Jake!! Great Vid!! When is the full pro package coming out for weebil s? Gimbal, focus motor and WIT?!! Thanks man!!
Not sure yet but I’ll ask and if/when I get an answer I’ll let you know!
Jake Sloan any insight into the package purchase for weebill s, focus wheel and wit?
How does the Zhiyun Crane v2 compare to these two? My current setup is a sony a6100 with a sigma 16mm f1.4 lens. Could possibly go up to s full frame camera like the sony a7iii at some point.
I’d recommend looking at the weebill S or RSC 2 from DJI
@@JakeSloan thanks for the reply. I’m liking what I’m seeing with the Weebill S
Hi Jake, thanks for the great video. This is probably going to be a stupid question, but on the compatibility list or the Zhiyun Weebill S, it doesn't have a listing for the Canon 70D but does for the 80D. Would you say the 70D is kinda sorta compatible or not at all?
Thanks!
It’s should treat It pretty much exactly the same. Not a lot changed from the 70 to the 80 in terms of control or software.
@@JakeSloan Thank you!
Great comparison.
Ty
Great job!! Glad to see that you have turned off the IBIS. It helps a lot to those of us who have cameras with no stabilization in the body. In your opinion, in which of the two models the lock mode works best in terms of stabilization? Thanks!
You’re welcome
Another great video for those of us trying to decide which one to get
Thanks!
I have a Weebil S with my G85. Pretty epic, can't wait to do some real stuff with it.
Enjoy! I love my weebill S. It’s been awesome
Fabulous review!!! thanks ... any idea if the Weebill S will work with the A7S iii? thanks
it does work just like the A7III does!
Excellent video!
Thank you!
lol I guess you like the hardware and overall experience with Zhiyun (me too), while on the other hand DJI does have better Apps and software advantage tbh...
yeah at the moment it is that way but I think Zhiyun is catching up
Do you think that Zhiyun can add the option to use the phone's camera to track objects to the app to reduce the lag? Have they?
They have not and I don't think its possible due to their design.
Does the weebill s do the “active track” and similar features as DJI without the transmitter module?
No it doesn’t unfortunately. The object tracking with the weebill S must have the image transmission unit to work.
@@JakeSloan Thank you for the reply and the video. I went ahead and ordered the webill s with transmission module. Lets see how it goes.
Great vídeo.
My setup is Sony 6400 with sigma 30 1.4, or with Samyang 12mm T2.2.
Which of the gimbals is Best by it?
Thank.
either one would work well. Get the ronin SC if you plan to track stuff or make motion time lapses etc. Get the Weebill S if you want the smoothest footage
Own both gimbal and I agree with a lot of the comment, DJI's app is easier to use and much more functional, but Weebill S' motor performances and "sling handle" makes traveling easier.
Yeah I’ve found myself using the Weebill s more and more because the motor strength is just that much better. Have you found you prefer one over the other?
@@JakeSloan Just like the you said, if you plan to record yourself walking because there's no one to help you hold the gimbal+camera; the active track 3.0 on the DJI Ronin-SC is a better choice when you want to record yourself walking down a path.
Honestly I carry the WeeBill S for traveling because my main set-up (Sony a7r3 + 16-35GMaster) is quite heavy and the Ronin-SC can't balance it well. And the sling shot handle on WeeBill S is much more comfortable to carry around all day than the single/tradition gimbal arm on Ronin-SC.
I wish I would've watched this before I bought the Weebill S! :) I'm going to return it and get the DJI RONIN SC, I'm a bid APP Usage guy, thanks for the review.
Youre welcome
I own an a7 camera and I wondering which one fits the best? Your video is super informative anyway.
I would recommend looking at either the Weebill 2 or the DJI RSC 2 now. Both are significant upgrades from these. I have reviews of them here: th-cam.com/video/0Oj9OCrfrmY/w-d-xo.html
Hi Jake, I loved your review. Just want to ask for help, I'm using canon 250D and I will be using it to shoot events such as weddings and birthdays, which gimbal would be the best for me? Weebil S or Ronin SC.
the Webill S for sure
In weebill S, For timelapse setting through app on mobile, am I right?
That’s correct!
Which one do you recommend for an A6400 with the 18-135mm kit lens? Can the Ronin SC handle both positions?
The ronin Sc could probably handle it but it might be pushing it. The weebill S can handle the camera and lens combo no problems. The weebill has been really great for me
The a6400 and 18-135mm lens are too light. I had this setup with the weebill s and it would shake and vibrate like crazy even on the lowest motor setting.
Thank you Jake.
You’re welcome!
Nice video i am using the crane 3 lab its a beast.
Awesome. I haven’t had the chance to try one of those out but from everything I’ve heard it’s fantastic.
Would a sigma art 24-105 lens on a blackmagic 4k be viable for the weebill s?
The lens would be fine but I’m not sure on the black magic camera. It’s so much wider it could be challenging to balance.
Thanks this really helpful
Excellent
Need this test with a pocket 4k with follow focus
Send me one and I’ll do it! Lol. Wish I had access to one to test with but unfortunately I do not.
Thanks for the review buddy. I did a comparison between the old Weebill Lab and Ronin SC and the Ronin SC was the better one.
But now this Weebill S seems to be a bit better than the Ronin SC. But then again I think the Ronin SC is just one firmware update away so that it can handle heavier set ups as well.
What do you think?
I think so as well! The ronin Sc still beats the Weebill s in smart features though.
Gary Jahman not sure how much the firmware can help with the motor power
hi can i ask help wich stab i can used for nikkon 5300 dlsr cam please thanks
the weebill s will work very well for that camera!
