Customer Ratings & Reviews

Easy to set up, works well with Sony A7III and 24-105 f4, adding rode video mic pro plus does put it off balance, overall very smooth operation; instructions aren’t super clear, had to look up YouTube videos to find all functions

Great gimbal for the price. It has about 6 shooting functions to choose from. It has an easy setup and very easy to balance. It also has some accessory points you can connect extra items to it such as a screen or grip or cold shoe. The only con about this is the app that you download that can control the gimbal. It is very limited (it appears some of the advanced app features are more geared towards some of the newer mirrorless cameras). It won't let you connect a monitor to it wirelessly unless you buy the expensive wifi kit. I'm going to attempt to tether it with a USB cord to see if that will work. It also is a good workout using it with a full-frame DSLR. The structure of the gimbal is solid, definitely doesn't feel cheap. Recommend this buy.

I love this gimbal. It works great for weddings and any video work you have. The heaviest camera I put on it was the canon 5dmiv with a 50mm lens. It handled it prefect. The price should be 2x more honestly.

Beware: Zhiyun's support is very terrible. It is only via email, and they do not make any attempt to repair the product or replace it. Just keep guiding you through the basic steps that you can find in the manual already. Tip: Buy the DJI Ronin series, more reliable and US based support. Review: Works great for the first 6 months or so, then the motors started failing. This gimbal successfully held my Canon 5D MKIV and a 24-70 f/2.8 Lens as advertised on their website. After about 6 months using it though, I noticed the motors would vibrate like crazy and it sometimes wouldn't move. I've done all of the motor calibrations and no success.

Hold weight pretty well, only downside is quality and app use. Other than that great Stabilizer for the price, I’d recommend going for the RSC-2 if you have the budget!

works great with my black magic 4 k camera will recommend

This gimbal is amazing. Its light weight and very compact. The response on this gimbal is quick and smooth. Works well with my canon 6d mark ii and my canon R5.

This thing has been a ton of fun and works great. Haven't had any issues. Build quality feels great and has been super reliable. Batteries last a very long time.

Really nice gimbal! Easy to balance and a ton of instructional videos on YouTube. After the first setup I felt like a pro. I am really happy with the price too.

This is a good gimbal for the price. It is pretty easy to balance a camera on and very comfortable to hold.

Great Gimbal! Took off 2 stars because the battery situation is a total mess! I have owned this for a year, less than 10 charges overall on the batteries (use it sparingly for only 5-10 minutes at a time). Extremely annoying that you MUST charge them outside of the gimbal, they have given me a hard time to get charged, and now won't charge at all. New batteries out of stock just about everywhere, and they're a strange size and fit.

Love it -- fun to use and wasn't too hard to figure out on the first time using a gimbal. Helped steady our videos a bunch.

Great value gimbal. The motor load-bearing seems to be quite good. Each axis can lock making it easy to balance and transport in a backpack. The quick-release plate makes it easy to take off the gimbal and reattach without needing to rebalance. I also keep the plate on the camera without any issues. The tripod stand it comes with is also great. It can be attached to the bottom to set it down easily, or on the back to use the gimbal underslung. The stand has a locking pin to stop it from unscrewing in underslung mode. My only complaint is that it doesn't have a companion app out of the box. You can get a wireless transmitter, which I plan on getting, that unlocks the ability to see what the camera sees as well as control the gimbal. That wireless transmitter is also a huge strongpoint, even though it's not included. Something like that would only be available on way higher-end gimbals. It truly unlocks another suit of possibilities, like car mounts. The new Ronin SC2 allows for this same thing, but at an $800 price tag. There definitely are better gimbals with higher load capacities or better connectivity, but not anywhere near this price.

I can actually fit this gimbal, my Sony A7iii, 4 lenses, a monitor, mic, and Mavic Air all in 1 backpack comfortably with no problems! Battery life is amazing, your camera will die before this gimbal does. If you have a Sony camera you will not be able to use some of the features available but all in all I’m very satisfied with this purchase!

A bit complicated to get set up. Instructions not clear

This is probably one of the best Gimbals on the market given the price point and what it is capable of with all of the upgrades.

Tiny Ninja Gimbal, Small Price, Huge workhorse, I've always like DJI products and was seriously going to pull the trigger on a Ronin... And then I saw this guy with his inticing price point. I'm sold, this thing handles my Canon EOS Rebel T7 with a Rokinon 10mm F/2.8 which is nearly a 3lb payload no problem ( 2.7lbs to be exact, okay I know not exactly 3lbs) While this does produce some pretty smooth footage compared to handheld camera footage, you should note that yes, you will still get some camera wobble or shake in your footage as this is not a cure all for that, my 2 cents, keep that in mind. you'll want to mess with the settings to your taste and liking, because the preset factory settings are to be desired, very robotic in nature, sure doesn't look "cinematic" from the factory, just something else to keep in mind. all in all it's worth it if you need a good Gimbal for professional work, if you just want steadier footage look into a stedicam and practice with that the pro's in Hollywood use.

Absolutely phenomenal. Punches way above its weight class. Love having the locking joints, makes balancing super easy, and transport very compact. Being able to change the handle from bottom mount to side mount is a game changer. App and smart features aren’t quite as good as dji, but I’m rarely using a gimbal for the app support anyway.

This is one of, if not the best gimbal on the market. It’s very light weight but solid and is simple to use.

I purchased this item a year ago and am still trying to figure out everything I can do with it, but this business is a learning process and so far it hasn't caused me any problems. Not super easy to use and balancing it was quite difficult the first few times I tried, but once you get the hang of the process of setting it up, you'll be fine. The app is cool because you can operate it remotely.
