    • @PaulTakesPhotos
      @PaulTakesPhotos  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Nick, you can use the motion tracking via the DJI Ronin App I did test it and found it okay, at times lagging.
      If you want to focus there are two ways: via the Panasonic image app,, which is not superb or buy the focus wheel.
      Hope this answers your questions

    Was following along perfectly until I got into the app. On the balance test the app is continually giving me the error message "Gimbal incline insufficient..Balance test cannot be completed if the gimbal is not held at an incline, or the angle of the incline is insufficient. Insure the gimbal is held at an incline between 15 and 45 degrees before starting the test"
    Needless to say I have repeatedly held the gimbal at an angle and restarted both the app and the gimbal several times. Cant move past this step in the app. Any idea where I went wrong?

    • @PaulTakesPhotos
      @PaulTakesPhotos  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      It is in terms of Stabilization and easy of use. The downside is connecting the Gimbal and camera with a cable, to be able to remote control the recording button and pull focus. In the next episode I'll elaborate on it and will show a possible easy workaround.
      In terms of Stabilization, app en controlling the Gimbal with the joystick, perfect and suits my needs

    Amazing video Paul, really.
    I'm about to get a gimbal, never owned one in the past. The question is: how easy is to mount/dismount it? My idea is to swap between this and gorilla pod all the time, by just having both of them in my backpack. So I will do some gimbal shots, then tripod things, then mount the camera again in the gimbal.. is that a horrible idea? Because I see that balancing videos/tutorials, etc, take around 15 minutes to achieve the perfect balance.. so I have to go trhough it every time I want to mount it? Or can you leave the setup kind of "balanced" ready?
    Thanks!

    • @PaulTakesPhotos
      @PaulTakesPhotos  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The mounting is not that much of a problem once you did you initial balancing and keep the same lens. Once you change lens you have to rebalance. If you own one camera I would say that you can use your gimbal for certain shots as a tripo, but not all.
      Additionally it depends on the sliding plate of your gimbal and your tripod plat. If they are conpatible it might or could work. I wouldnt take that risk
