  • I need tips on a camera / gimbal

    Hi,

    I would like to create cinematic slo mo style videos but am getting lost with all the options!

    I’d prefer a pro-sumer style option and prefer not to use my cell phone. The videos would be hiking and exercise events

    Thank you!!

    If you’re moving around a lot, the Osmo might work for you.

    I’ve used the OSMO. Not that great. It does a little better than just walking with the camera but you still see the up and down movements. I even got the “z axis” stabilizer for it but it still didn’t give me the smoothness I was looking for. Plus you need a smartphone to use as your viewfinder/record. I noticed the connection between them would sometimes go out.

    I don’t know what your budget is but I’ve been very happy with the ZHIYUN Crane.
