Hi Samuel
Thank & may Father Bless you, & ur household. Praying 🙏 for ur health 2x daily.
Thank & Bless you 🙌
Shalom
Rabbi 😇
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
Yeah if they made a Dji pocket 3 screen it would be so wonderful 😮
I totally agree! A game changer for so many!!
Got the Zhiyun 5. It's an excellent gimbal, but calibrating it every time tired me so I bought the OP3 😅
Fair point. I can see your point... But with all that in mind, if anyone is looking for a good, solid and reliable smartphone gimbal, this one is hard to beat...
@@SamuelSotiega I agree. Altho I have the previous one it is of high quality and capability. Strong motors can manage a heavy smartphone with case and filter 🫡
@@ARAW-__- yes, zhiyun has not messed the range as they get it better… And the motors is something I always liked about them.
@@SamuelSotiega I agree. There's a market for light and compact gimbal. This one feels more like a professional gear to me.
I have the 5s after watching your reviews but I just wish the let us buy an ai module to use 😢 I’m keeping my 5s until they have a bigger pay load for mobile lenses ❤
I tested the AI tracker individually on the 5S but it wouldn’t work. Maybe in the future they do that, it would certify be helpful to so many!! Are you happy with your 5S?
@@SamuelSotiega very happy with the 5s , is the tracker necessary? I’d only upgrade for a bigger payload or maybe I wait until iPhone 16 so I don’t need to use an extra lens for 0.5 or tele
When I use a microphone attached like a wireless mic, the payload can’t balance moment lens but without the mic the payload is perfect
Definitely prefer over my Dji I have osmo 5 and se
@@LouisLuzuka i can totally relate to that feeling! 😉😀
Thanks for info!
Glad you found it helpful!
Can you monitor yourself like on the filmic pro double take ? I would love a wireless controller to frame yourself and a wireless screen to see yourself 😅is that too much to ask ❤
The only thing I know to do what you have in mind is filming remote, but it can be pricey as you also need filming pro on a separate phone, unless you are using the legacy version… Zhiyun has the zy play app, that you can use on a separate phone for remote control and sort-of monitoring. You can either remote control or monitor, so you could position the framing, the switch to monitoring to confirm you got it right. I hope it is making sense. But with either solution you need 2 phones, one of the gimbal recording, the other one remote control/monitoring…
@@SamuelSotiega yes I have an iPad, I also want to ask you what is that wireless remote you have? It looks so helpful but honestly at this point it seems like osmo pocket 3 even 2 is the easiest option because you only need one phone to remote and monitor 🥺🙏
Great content! Please do a comparison review of this gimbal and the insta360 flow
I don’t hVe the flow anymore, but I did do a comparison between the hohem M6 and the flow, of that helps. What I plan to do is a comparison between this one and the hohem M6…
Is the stabilisation any better than the 5 or the 5S?
The stabilisation is great. That is one thing I really appreciate about the smooth 5 range…
Do you suggest if I am using mobile lenses I get something meant for a camera 😮
Do you have any lenses yourself already?
@@SamuelSotiega all moment lenses , tele 58mm is the heaviest
I have rhe Hohem MT6 (had a Smooth 5, which the Hohem replaced) and it has a better payload. Is the Zhiyun any better with tracking or have better stabilization?
How much is the pay load because I’m hoping the same thing! I have the smooth5s but I can use mobile lenses but not mobile lenses and microphone
Might have to join your team with the 400g pay load….
If you have an M6, I would stay with it and keep the money in the bank. That is a good and solid gimbal. AI tracker is great on the M6…
Have you tried mounting the microphone to the gimbal’s handle, that way the mic does not need to be part of needs to be balanced… Does it make sense?
@@SamuelSotiega I think it’s more so the adapter for the mic pushes the phone away from the centre point so it’s not that it can’t be balanced the motor is enough but not when it’s off calibration from the weight unless there’s a counter weight
Is the hohem isteady mt2 axis superior to it?
I feel in terms of Ai tracking, yes. Plus you can get a remote control. In therms of pure stabilisation, probably the Zhiyun is marginally better. But the MT2 will handle phone plus a small camera. This zhiyun smooth 5S ai is smartphone only. It all depends in what you are looking for and need…
What I really wanna know, is can the ai tracker good at tracking objects like cars rather than people?
Thr Ai tracker is only for faces. The gimbal has a built-in tracker that you can select things to track. I am currently away until July 10th but if you reach out to me then, I can do some tests for you and report back to you. If that helps…
Can you buy that ai tracker for the regular 5s smooth
@@bryceterry4823 unfortunately not. I tried and it wouldn’t work with the 5S…
so I downloaded the zy cami app and paid for the remote for my iPad... man its terrible hHAHAHAHAH but if someone can figure out how to do remote control with a screen and remote then we good
You should have filmic pro on one phone and filmic remote on another. Is that what you have?
@@SamuelSotiega right now I'm using the zy cami app with zy remote which I have to pay a subscription fee about 5 bucks a month, because I want to be able to find my composition when I'm filming myself on a tripod.
but once I find my composition it would be nice to be able to switch to the filmic pro app with filmic remote to dial in the settings
so its nice theres options like this!
I still think the osmo pocket 3 with the mimo app is the most convenient and discreet in public but it's cool theres options, thanks for giving me the idea. I'm so intrigued about this ai camera stuff I'm going to skip the smooth 5 ai which I'm sad they can't just let me use the adapter on my 5s but I'm excited about the mt2 gimbals and m6 and all the new stuff coming out!
