Brilliant best compact on the market
Brilliant best compact on the market, only thing i wish there was an option in black. Not too hard to balance but had to watch a youtube video to help out with the balancing of the camera

Don't Waste Your Money
I am a YouTuber with 1m+ subs and have used 20+ gimbals in the market. This has to be one of the worst ones. don't get fooled by the reviews you see on YouTube, most of those are paid reviews / affiliate inspired ones.This won't do any good. Too complicated to use, doesn't balance easy, falls down if you add any serious lens other than the kit lens, no support, reddit reports many had electronic issues. Email support doesn't respond.I returned mine in 2 weeks.

Lumix S5ii With S 18mm Lumix Prime didn't fit, or balance
Very disappointing, my Lumix S5ii and Prime Lumix 18mm lens didn't fit or balance right on this gimbal, even though it stated they were compatible on Zhiyun's website, just about got it balanced, but it was so close to catching the edge of the gimbal arm, no way I was mount my expensive full frame on the baby gimbal

Perfect gimbal for my Sony ZV e10
Bought this for my sony zv e10. Didn't take too long to balance after watching a couple of tutorials on YouTube, once you have it balanced it's easy to take off and on with the mounting plate (as long as no other lenses or extra weight us added) I've yet to take it out and about but I've used it to take some brilliant videos of my children and cat. I bought the m3s over the m3 because of the bluetooth function. It connected to my camera very easily and it can even take pictures with the record button when you press it and hold. I'm really liking this gimbal, it's small and can fit in my small camera bag no problem along with my camera and lens. Would definitely recommend just make sure your camera is compatible with the gimbal before buying

Surprisingly Powerful!
I’ve been holding off on buying a gimbal for my camera and when I have decided to purchase one, I’m actually loving it. I have never used a gimbal on my camera because I think they are bulky and heavy and to my surprise, this gimbal is super lightweight and portable. It works flawlessly with my ZVE10. I have always hated my camera’s stabilization and with this gimbal, it indeed made my videos look amazing. I love how it matches my white ZVE10 and the light is a plus.

Didn’t work for me
This is a very well reviewed gimbal but I did not like it. I’m using an iPhone 13 Pro, anamorphic lens and variable nd filters. It takes the weight just fine. But I find the handle is too short for my grip and trigger button does not sit under my index finger so it’s awkward to use comfortably. The arms are on the short side and it won’t lock flat and closed when not in use without moving the balance points and then you have to rebalance. I found the arm with the quick release mechanism awkward to use and hard to get it to lock square to the axis. It would do it but it took a few attempts. The big negative for me is that the shutter button does not work with third party apps and is very small. And I tried to connect it as a phone gimbal in the app but the software would not recognize it. The build quality is good and it’s more compact than I expected. I ended up with the Feiyutech Scorp Mini. It’s a little bigger than this one but I like the ergonomics much better and the shutter button works to control Filmic Pro and other apps. And it’s less expensive.

Ergonomique et efficace
Je débute avec, et très vite tout va bien. Le produit est bien pensé et très agréable autant à utiliser qu'à regarder... La prise en main se fait rapidement. Pour l'instant, je n'arrive pas à basculer du mode vortex au mode follow pan sans être obligé de l'éteindre au préalable et parfois j'appuie sur l'écran tactile sans faire exprès. Mais avec la pratique tout ira bien. Très bon produit...

Simplemente espectacular.
Después de varias pruebas solamente puedo decir que no me ha dejado de sorprender.El Crane M3 es un gimbal de 3 ejes muy estable ante todo tipo de movimientos (incluso baches y saltos), el software es bastante intuitivo y el diseño muy ergonómico, por l que una vez te adaptas al menú y la distribución de los botones es fácil de manejar. Además es multidispositivo por lo que sirve para una cámara compacta, de acción, y hasta con el móvil (aunque necesita un adaptador que no está incluido). Viene con una pantalla táctil de unos 2,5cm x 2,5cm (1,2") que facilita mucho el tema de los ajustes y el centrado.Puede operarse al 100% con un sola mano por lo que ofrece bastante libertad para utilizar la otra dando indicaciones o utilizando algún dispositivo de iluminación.Resumiendo: aunque inicialmente pueda parecer caro, merece la pena el dinero que vale.

Non penso si possa chiedere di più a queste cifre
Un gimbal di livello semi-professionale, che funziona benissimo e stabilizza praticamente qualsiasi tipo di mirrorless (a meno di non essere troppo "riggata").Arriva in una scatola ben protetto da un box di polistirolo, che aiuta a riposizionare tutto in maniera ordinata ma non aiuta nel trasporto perché non ci sono maniglie o borse con zip dedicate.Per chi ha già usato un gimbal l'utilizzo è piuttosto intuitivo, i controlli sono anche touch sullo schermo e tramite joystick e rotella è facile regolare movimenti e valori durante l'utilizzo.Ovviamente richiede un minimo di apprendimento per scoprirne tutte le qualità e le possibilità, ma si vede che tutte le aziende e in particolare Zhiyun stanno facendo passi in avanti in termini di usabilità.C'è anche una luce integrata utile in caso di necessità, ma non ci farei troppo affidamenti in caso di lavori di un certo livello. Risulta ben costruito, solido e stabile, facile da impugnare e non troppo pesante (ovviamente poi dipende dal tipo di carico che ci andiamo ad installare).Sarebbe anche compatibile con smartphone e action cam, ma lo trovo sprecato perché le stabilizzazioni integrate in questi prodotti di solito bastano, e soprattutto sono così vicine all'effetto gimbal che dubito qualcuno faccia uno sforzo in più per montare qualcosa di così compatto su un gimbal comunque molto importante e che richiede diversi settaggi.Ho provato al volo l'app e mi sembra buona, senza infamia e senza lode, secondo me per controllare qualche parametro e movimento da remoto potrebbe tornare utile.Per 280 euro credo non si possa chiedere di più o comunque trovare qualcosa di così completo e funzionale a queste cifre. Per me 5 stelle.
