    Great gimbal, but unfortunately was too heavy for my failing hands. Can't fault it for my own medical conditions though. I was very happy with it while I was able to use it. High quality and really well built.

    This gimbal is the best! I’ve had it for almost 2 months. Battery seems like it goes on FOREVER! I had someone tell me that it would only last 2 hours... NOT TRUE! It went on for 12. I would recommend to anyone

    I purchased this gimbal to increase my production Value and it does not upset. Very easy to use once you get used to it. Battery life is long, and balanceing does take some time, but once it is balanced it is good to go!

    I am using this with a Sony a6500 and Sigma 16mm art lens primarily. Very easy to set up/balance and so far has been very stable. Battery life has not been an issue at all and seems to hold a charge for a long time.

    Pretty much stable not too reliable since it does tend to lose its focused object takes a bit getting use to at first but is perfect for anyone beginning videography

    I bought the Zhiyun crane to use with my Sony a6300 since the camera did not have IBIS. Using this gimbal has made a world of difference shooting with the a6300

    You've read the hype. This really is one of the best gimbals out there. The only negative is its relatively light weight limit. This works well with light bodies and primes.

    A huge step up from cell phone gimbals. A learning curve becoming comfortable with it's features but well worth the time and financial investment. Want smooth video, this is where it's at!

    Super reliable and smooth stabilization. Only drawback is the fact that it is outdated and it has been replaced by the plus which can hold up more weight and comes with some additional key accesories

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    It worked really well, video looked super fluid. Subtracting one star because mine stopped powering on after 2 days of having it.
