    This covers the features, pros, and cons of the new Feiyutech Scorp Mini Gimbal. This cool little gimbal will work with any smaller mirrorless cameras, action cameras, and with your phone. I said "Scorptec" once or twice by mistake. It's a local shop I get electronics from. 🤣

    On the app when you use the function to set different positions, can you also set the gimbal so it changes focus using the focus wheel for each position? Would be awesome for b-roll using manual lenses.

    Great review, I had no idea you also did gear reviews (I follow your guitar channel). I got this gimbal free for review and I really like it, I shoot professionally and the Weebil S was just a little big in some circumstances and this coupled with an M50 is awesome when you want to be a little less conspicuous. Great review.

    • @GeekyNerdyTechy

    Hello, great review!
    If I want to use it with my Sony A7S III (700 gms) + Sony 16-35 lens (353 gms.) would it work?
    I reckon yes because it's just over a kilo, right?
    Could you say that it is comparable to the Weebill S?
    Thank you!

    • @GeekyNerdyTechy

    Hi! Great video! I just ordered one! You scared me at the end though about using it with big lenses. I have the Sigma 16mm, I guess it's mid-size and should be OK on the a6500. Hope so anyway! Thanks again for the great video

    • @GeekyNerdyTechy
      @GeekyNerdyTechy  2 роки тому +1

      Weight the entire rig and see if it falls within the threshold. If it's close to it's maximum, maybe opt for a larger gimbal.

    • @GeekyNerdyTechy

      The GH5 will fit on this gimbal but you'll need to weigh the entire combo with the lens to make sure it's not too heavy.

    The only negative I can see is, left handers are out of luck. They will hit the magic wheel. Next version should have an option to switch magic wheel to other side.

    Hello, I was wondering if I could buy it off of you, if possible, only reason why I am going to such lengths is because I am a little worried about the third party website that FeiyuTech is selling their products from. The customers, including me, seem to be getting very slow responses as it pertains to feedback about our order progress, tracking, shipping, delivery, etc...And I know it'll take months to ship/deliver. so if its a possibility, I would love to see if I could buy yours from you? If not, that is fine as well, just weighing my options

      Yeah like I’m going to leave a camera on a gimbal until the battery dies. No thanks. You can do that and damage your own gear.
