The media could not be loaded. I was looking for a lightweight gimbal that can carry my camera, especially for my set up, a7M3 with FE 28-60mm F4-5.6. Honesty, I have tried other professional stabilizers but ended up returning them because of their weight. So, when I saw they claims this gimbal only weighed 700g, I gave it a chance. Weight: 693g/1.5lbs (gimbal) and 787g/1.7lbs (gimbal + quick release plate+ tripod). Compared with other professional gimbals that can easily go over 1400g/3lbs without battery & accessory, crane M3 feels so light, no to mention crane M3 has a built-in LED light and battery. Stabilizer: Buttery smooth. These motors are powerful, did cancel out swaying. No skill, all technology. Built-in LED: 6W, 2600k-5400K, little but ideal for vlog. If you shoot vlog with a hat, that light would be good enough to light your face. Long press side scroll wheel to turn on and slide to change color temperature. The light info will show on the gimbal screen as you turn on the light. It also comes with some magnetic filters to change the light color, sweet free add-on. Quick Release Plate: just release the plate without boarding balancing, it is a reliable locking system, I never worry about it. Screen & Setting: responsive and decent brightness, no issues with their interface. Four-button in the main screen, gimbal modes, balance status for all axes, system Info, and Settings. Gimbal modes include: Pan Follow Mode /Lock Mode /POV Mode /Follow Mode /Go Mode /Vortex Mode /Portrait Mode. In the setting, there are Auto Calibration, Parameter Setting( torque/smoothness/follow speed/joystick speed/Deadband), Parameter Rese, and Control Wheel Customization. All settings act as they should, no misleading. Ziyun also provides firmware updates, maybe more features on the way? Lightweight is always the correct way to go. At least, I never got a good shot when I am tired.

If you have a mirrorless camera, you need this in your life. I have a video I will upload once amazon sorts out why its not allowing me to post videos. I have many gimbals, and this so far tops them in terms of features/weight handling and size. To give a basis. The setup on it now is a Sony A7RIV with a smallrig cage and a 30mm Sigma lens. I did attempt to balance a zoom lens, but at full zoom it did outweight what the motors can handle. But for the size of this, Im not mad. It is an extremely heavy and top heavy setup So lets just hop to the pros and cons. PROS: * Small! Easy to carry and nice ergonomic grip * The controls are self explanatory * Its very lightweight and easy to carry. * The built in light deserves its own review. Its attached tot he gimbal, and there is a dial to adjust the brightness and the hue. Never saw anything like this on a gimbal. It saves me a lot of time carrying an extra light around * balancing is super easy. * It does carry a beefy setup camera wise * Connecting to the camera was easy. * Their app offers more options on top of whats already on the gimbal itself. * Its nice to have a different colored gimbal, love the white color Cons * The only con would be that the camera setup and the zoom sigma 24-70mm was a little to much for it. But at the same time, that is expecting ALOT from a compact gimbal like this. So sort of a con, but manageable

My camera isn't compatible with this gimbal, but it fuctions extrememly well for the actual gimbal work. I love the fill light also.

I bought this to use with my Sony A7III AND 28-70mm lens, my GoPro, and my iPhone 13pro Max. I bought this after watching reviews on YouTube and reading reviews online. It saw very difficult to try and ball ace my DSLR, which it shows one on the picture. I had to by counter weights for my iPhone and GoPro in order for it to work without shaking and turning off. I should have returned it after having all the trouble trying to get it to work , but I did not want to deal the the trouble of sending it back through Amazon.

This gimbal is so useful to me as a video content creator. I got this gimbal because I upgraded to iPhone 14 Pro Max and the DJI OM4 kind of struggles to handle the weight of the new iPhone. The M3 has more powerful motors and is really designed for mirrorless cameras. It also works very well with my Sony ZV-E10 and A5100. The joystick, wheels control and touch screen menu options are Intuitive. There are many other features that I like: 1. The included USB-C to Micro-USB cables allows me to do Record/Stop on Sony cameras, and the power cable can provide power to charge the camera. 2. A lightning to USB-C cable can power the phone while shooting. 3. Built-in flashlight with easy control! No need to mount video lights! 4. Easy to balance, the brackets are all metal. 5. Phone app required to activate the device but it also allows access to set Timelapse key points (can be sent on the gimbal too, but phone app is nicer) 6. Motion capturing from the phone app to mirror the movement of the phone to the gimbal! 7. Fast USB-C charging at around 12 watts. 8. It has a quick release plate! 9. 1/4 adapter for mounting other accessories. I’m thinking of getting a SmallRig handle with a battery clamp to supply power to the gimbal while shooting.
