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. The gimbal alone provides stable images. I have used it with a Sony a6400 and a full frame Sony A7C and it works flawlessly. Time lapse, the gimbal can be set to do diagonal movements from the app, and my camera can be controlled from the gimbal. ***Sony users be advised that if you set the gimbal to adjust camera settings DO NOT SET TO SONY!!! For some reason there is a glitch. However, if you set the camera control to Canon or Panasonic, you will be able to control aperture and shutter on your camera from the gimbal.*** This gimbal really shines when you purchase the extra upgrades which aren't cheap but worth it in the long run. Zhiyun sells an HDMI wireless transmitter, receiver, and remote that are designed for the Weebill. The image transmitter can be used for anything; you can plug it into a PlayStation and transmit video wirelessly so you can use it for more than just your camera. The remote combined with the transmitter/receiver gives more stable motion control than you would get with your phone. The main reason I purchased the transmitter/reciever is because that allows object tracking. From the app you can place a square around just about any object and once it's locked on, the gimbal will follow that object 360 degrees. If you're doing a presentation, the camera will follow you as you walk around which adds quite a bit of versatility. This gimbal also works well on a slider. If you're doing a real estate shoot and you need to pull into a hallway and turn right, the gimbal slider combo provides great cinematic movements. I used to own a Feiyutech a1000 before but the Weebill is definitely the best gimbal on the market for small mirrorless cameras.

I have never touched a gimbal in my life and I’m glad zhiyun made this one super easy to set up and use! It works great, the footage is nice and smooth. Only thing is you might have to mess with the settings for tilt, roll and pan but it’s to your own preference. Straight out of the box it works fine too. I’m glad I bought it. I have already seen such an improvement in video quality because of this gimbal. I use my Tamron 28-75mm lens on it with the a7iii and I also use the sigma 16mm on my Sony a7iii and both work fine on the gimbal.

Great value. Phenomenal for making video. Has the ability to add attachments. Could be better for user friendly. Great build quality. Would recommend this product.
