    Thank you so much, Jeven! I'd be lost without you! You've truly simplified and flattened so much of the learning curve, and have made my amateur videography possible. Our cruise tours wouldn't look the same without your wisdom and guidance, and our channel and business wouldn't be doing as well. So, again, thank you!

    Thank you again for, hands down, the best beginner's video on the RS3 Mini that I've seen, and I've seen plenty. Yours is the first that explains the setup, balance and use of the gimbal in such a detailed and easy-to-follow way. I am still struggling with the Tilt + Top/Bottom Heavy adjustments. Just can't seem to nail it. But I will. Kudos for another great one, Jeven!

    Tip: If you are having troubling balancing the tilt axis....there is a third factor that you can control, and that is the camera mount. Moving that forward or backwards depending on the weight of your lens can help a lot. I have the FX30 and I was pushing the axis to the limit. Once I readjusted where my camera sat on that plate, it helped a lot with balancing.

    Thank you so much for this video! I just got the RS 3 Mini a few weeks ago and only really watched a video on how to balance the camera on it. My results were very disappointing. After watching this video I feel like my gimbal knowledge was increased 100x! Just showing how to change that dial to something else to stop the focus error from coming up on my Sony camera was great, but the way you explained the different follow modes is the best I've heard, and now I actually understand the differences. Plus, I know and understand how and why I would want to use the Lock Mode as well. As a long time pro photographer and drone pilot who is just adding "from the ground" video to what I want to offer clients, your video is a big first step in getting me ready to start getting video clients. I am a subscriber and will be back to watch more! Thanks again!

    Ok right up front at 1:06 I think I saw what I need to know about this gimbal. If I saw this correctly you had that DSLR slightly tilted upwards on the mount? Is this correct, because I want to use this gimbal with a camera mounted, not horizontally but angled (in my case facing downwards). Have i got this right that a camera can be positioned in basically any angle within the limits of the mounting system?

    Just bought one of these for my Nikon, these tutorials are an absolute bonus.
    One minor criticism on the gimbal is that it might have been useful if there were little thumb wheels on the arms for precise balancing. I do find moving the cradles manually along the arms tends to be a bit stiff.

Now I have the DJI RS3. Not the Mini or the Pro, so I am assuming mine has all of these features too, so I will have to check them out tomorrow. I love your videos on this stuff! I know, I know... I should just read the instructions, but I tend to not and figure things out by video reviews and video instructions.

Definitely not saying to rush it that much but just shows the potential to really trim things down
