- Followup video on connecting the Zhiyun Weebill 3 to a Sony a7IV.
And attempting to connect to Zhiyun's Transmount Video Transmission Transmitter (AI), and Master Eye Visual Controller VC100 with limited results.
Does it work? Sort of....
Thanks for this video brother!
Greetings,
Does anyone out there have experience with the VC100-Sony FX3 camera function controls? I am hoping the VC100 will control the Weeblii 3s and Sony FX3 via AI Transmitter while the camera rig is mounted to the bumper and the camera operator stationed inside of the vehicle.
this is really helpful thank you very much sir
Thank you for the comment. I've been a little lazy making these kind of videos these days, but please let me know if there is any gear you would want me to explain in a future video.
thank you 🙏 you helped me a lot
Glad to hear that! I really think a lot of gear makers really need to improve on their intructions / support, or at least put up a useful FAQ section on their websites.
After using the DJI RS3 along side the Zhiyun Weebill 3 for a few months in professional settings (mainly Japanese varitey TV show settings), I gotta say that in my opinion, DJI is kicking Zhiyun's ass. I guess what you pay is what you get....
Hello @keisugimoto570 I have wonder if you are able to use a motion tracking feature with the VC100 / AI transmitter / A7IV I may be hallucinat8ng, but way back in the Weebill 2 era I thought it was possible to select a subject in the frame on the controller and enable subject tracking to allow the Weebill 3 or 3S to pan and follow a subject, like a presenter on screen. Have you heard of this function or how to use it? I have never seen an interface for this on the VC100 but I swear I heard Zhiyun mention this feature in the past.
Hi kei , i have almost same set up my issue is , when i recor 4k , the ransmitter is directly stopping the image transfer to the phone and directly making black screen! With 1080 p its all working normal !
The transmitter just support 1080 not support 4K shooting.
This is very helpful information thankyou .
If I shoot in 4.6K will I see an image on the mastereye monitor?
Or is it possible to see an image on the monitor only if I shoot in HD?
Image transmission only support 1080P.
:) Greetings
A friend tell me where you can buy these cables? Thank you
That’s the problem. These seemingly generic cables are actually proprietary cables which are hard to find. B&H Photo in NY had them before but not anymore.

So I guess the only other ways I can think of are buying from owners on eBay, AliExpress, etc.
hello friends! Please help me. I got the Weebill 3. I little sad. I can't connect it to my sony a7 III using cable. I want to control shutter, ISO, aperture using Weebill 3 and cable to sony. Maybe you have some tutorial? I also have Weebill S and there are no problem to connect and control camera by Weebill S. I need just one cable for it. Could i control ISO, aperture, shutter through connection by cable from weebill to sony ? And how to set up it ? I dont want to use Transmitter ((
I’m sorry. I don’t have an a7III to test it on. Honestly, after learning too late that the system is only partially compatible with my a7IV, I haven’t attempted to get it fully working.
Neither the A73 or A74 support remote iso/wb/ss or anything else, those features are only available (by Sony firmware) on the R S and FX cameras. Total bummer
@@RyanPerrellaThank! Likely o bouth A1 and now i can control iso/wb/ss. But only something one of tham ( needs to be choosing in weebill 3 menu). Although in weebill S (older one) i can control everything without choosing only one. Crazy moment !!!
Might want to check if there is a setting in the menu of the Gimbal for CCS, as they exist in the Weebill S , Crane 3S Pro and I think the Weebill 2. Would be a real short sight if they didn't include it in the Weebill 3? This video at around 1:58 shows the setting ua-cam.com/video/1rW0vaSAZjA/v-deo.html (Weebill S) and this one around .22 of this Video ua-cam.com/video/KQ21pXwZFe4/v-deo.html (Crane 3S Pro). Hope this helps...
It no need to set with CCS when connect with weebill3， as there is no CCS option in weebill3 menu.
