Zhiyun Smooth 5S Smartphone Gimbal Stabilizer 3-Axis with Built-in Fill Light for iPhone Android with Face Object Tracking for Vlog Video Live Stream INS YouTube (Smooth 5 Upgrade Version)-Gray

This a great gimbal, its really easy to use and setup. I could not see anything in the instructions, but I eventually figured out that the app provided by Zhiyun (ZY Cam) isn't actually needed, you could use the already installed camera app on your existing phone, all you have to do is connect the phone to the gimbal via Bluetooth, and it should work. The gimal has lost of features, zooming in out, pan up, down, left and right, also has lots of modes to track objects, allow panning only and so on. This model has a fill light which is quick good for indoor use. Once you know how to select the mode you need, they are easy to use. The ginbal also has a USB-C charging socket, which is super convienent, as my phone has a USB-C power socket, and also has a USB-C slot to charge the phone while in use with with Gimbal (this does impact the great battery life of the Gimbal though). Sorry I could not show you all of the features on the video, a little difficult while operating the video and the gimbal at the same time. But I hope it shows how smooth, easy to use and compact it is. It has the ability to connect a large phone (Pixel 6 Pro) and you can balance it correctly with the sliding scale thats lockable. Tip: Ensure all parts of the gimbal are unlocked, so the gimbal can balance, twist and turn as needed. Excellent peice of equipment, recommended.

This item has many features, which is why I purchased one. The stability is the best I have found for a gimbal. However, when it comes to software, there is a trade-off when using it with an Android phone. None of the apps (free or paid) utilize all the features. It is up to you which to use, depending on the features available for that particular app. In most instances, I have found that I often use the Android phone camera app, which gives good results. As I mentioned, stabilization is key for me. I can manipulate the video in post-production when videoing using the highest settings.

The build quality is great. It feels like the material is solid. The stability is also super good. I used it with iphone 13 pro max, and it handled it super smoothly. The modes are easy to use and you can easily switch between the modes with simple moves. The app also offers some nice features for long exposure and movement tracking. I also liked the spot light feature for recording. Adds enough light for proper exposure. Also, there is port that can charge your phone. All in all, enough features for high quality stable content creation. Recommended.

El producto es muy bueno, solo que en mi caso tengo que devolverlo al tener holgura en el motor de paneo. Creo que el modelo del año anterior, el 5 sin la s, es casi idéntico de uso y funcionamiento a bastante menor precio. Aconsejo este hasta que salga el 6 o 6s, com verdaderos cambios de progreso y mejora. El vendedor totalmente recomendable.

Gimbal a 3 assi compatibile con smartphone di dimensioni generose, permette di catturare foto e video in modo stabile, senza dover mai toccare lo schermo del dispositivo. Tutte le funzionalità della fotocamera del telefono vengono eseguite attraverso i vari tasti, la manopola e il joystick presenti sullo Zhiyun Smooth 5S che, in modo combinato, permettono di mettere a fuoco con precisione nonchè di zoomare in modo reattivo e con graduale incremento-decremento facendo ottenere sempre immagini e video professionali, anche a chi non è molto pratico.E' robusto e fatto con materiali di buonissima qualità. Il pannello di controllo è ergonomico e tutti i comandi sono sempre a portata di mano; agevoli le riprese dove viene richiesto il classico 360° con operatore in movimento, comoda la funzione "smart follow", piu' che buone le riprese in notturna grazie anche alla luce led da 2 Watt integrata. Efficace l'impugnatura con inserti in gomma, buona la durata della batteria da 2600 mAh che si carica in un paio d'ore, risulta un pò pesante se lo si utilizza per periodi superiori ai 30-40 minuti di seguito. Nel complesso un bel "giocattolo" con un rapporto qualità prezzo piu' che soddisfacente.
