I purchased the moza air 2 and it kept falling asleep and turning off randomly. The gimbal was balanced correctly too. Also the build quality feels way cheaper than a 600 dollar product. The build quality between the dji and moza is night and day. I went with the ronin s and had zero issues. Also the battery thing was annoying taking them out and having a separate charger. I don’t know. This seemed to be more of an ad for moza than an actual opinion about it.
That was happening to me with Moza Air 2S but eventually, I found that it was happening as my Roll axis was locked and Moza instead of giving clear message, kept going in sleep mode and eventually turn off.
I own the ronin s and it does not compare to this thing. The only thing I would say it beats the moza in is a more metalic construction. But then again that adds weight which most of y’all are moaning about anyway. And if the weebil lab is so good then why does it have such terrible reviews? Besides, you can’t compare the two because they are in two totally different classes. You can’t put an FS7 on a weebil lab like you can the Moza air 2. Like I said two totally different classes.
I was buying what you were saying up until 7:19. Ronin S has this and it came out months ago. Being in industry you are in there is NO WAY you haven't heard of it. I don't doubt this is a good gimbal but blatant lying makes you and Moza look bad. Makes us start thinking "Maybe they were paid to say this stuff?"
This is the Ronin S but like one year later. It is noticable how there is no menrion to specs where the ronin s beats moza like workload. Also, no video samples like other videos ( like the one they go to a bar with the gimbal )
Man, either be honest about your review or don't review it at all. If you're sponsored mention it and if there is other better products, mention it. You guys being ignorant towards other products and being biased to make a few bucks is not only a bad review, but it's cringe!
Glad you guys are also backing this! I love my first Moza Air and use it all the time. If something crazy happens and i feel the need for a newer model this will for sure be my go to with the experience i've had with the first one. Moza Also get's back to you in a timely manner..... Good luck hearing anything back from DJI as they hands down have the most awful customer service.
You keep talking about how this gimbal is unique and everything and how it is the first to do some things but this is just a copy of the Dji ronin s. Gimbals like the ronin s zhiyun crane 2 or 3 and a few others have had these feautures you talk about for months now! Just make honest reviews man!
I love you guys, but as many other already stated - when something is sponsored, pls say so in the beginning. No doubt Moza AIR 2 is a good gimble. But... I have Ronin S, and it can do everything this can...and you didn't mention it at all. Ronin S IMHO is de facto standard for "one-handed" gimbals, and should be mention in comparison.
Do agree! I think not mentioning is one thing, but saying stuff about Moza that it only does, when also Ronin S does it.... is another. If he's clueless, why is he reviewing these and if not, why is he stating stuff that isn't true. Although I like Moza and the video with it flaws gives quite good picture of the gimbal. I own Ronin S myself.
and the Feiyutech AK 2000/4000 aswell... but overall a good review. I would love to know if the Moza Air 2 can be positioned by Hand without the motors trying to work against you.
@@kanocularTV well, it does say patent pending on their website, so actually, right now, nothing is protected, nor guaranteed if it will even go through. And i have to add, i never even heard of pilotfly before, even though i live in Germany and work in the Film Industry... have to check them out.
seems very similar to dji ronin-s. would be useful to see a comparison if you have that one. it also has "inception mode" and many other features you've listed. is this just an ad or is this a real review?
Hey Fstoppers! I predict about half your comments will be on how this is also accomplished by Ronin S. Could you have overlooked at the DJI gimbal while exalting this one?
@@YoungBlaze and you ridiculously believe that DJI doesn't "pay them" as well...? On top, Monty clearly said they're sent this stuff all the time, including this one, so there's really no "surprise" or secret here as to whether or not it's what you call a "paid-for" video. The simple fact that Canon or DJI seem to have a lot of fanboys out there still does not mean it was a crime to actually every now and then post a video about something different (and better) ;)) , so I really did enjoy this one!
I too found it odd that you didn't mention the DJI Ronin-S at 7:19 considering the Ronin-S and Pilotfly Adventurer have already been doing the inception mode for a while. There's a few times in this video where I felt you overlooked the existence of these other competitive gimbals. With that being said, this looks like a promising gimbal but I'm going to pass simply because I'd like a gimbal with a removable handle (like the Ronin-S and Pilotfly Adventurer) for easy storage on my travels. Everything else seems solid though and you did a decent overview of it's features.
I could use some help here. I have a large LED device that goes into the flash-socket of my camera. With the battery attached to it it weighs quite a lot. How do I combine my light-solution with a gimbal? Can I attach this to the front of the gimbal instead of the flash-socket? How how do you do that?
I know of at least 3 other gimbals that do just about everything you have talked about in this review, some of which are cheaper. Check out the Dji Ronin S, FeiyuTech AK2000 or AK4000 and some of the new Zhiyun gimbal models. Do your homework before you start talking like this is the only gimbal with these functions. Its actually about 12 months behind.
There are currently around 6 Gimbals on the market that have 'Inception' Mode, and run a test to ensure the Gimbal is correctly balanced. FStoppers are clearly not testing ALL gimbals like they state in this video. Not impressed by this gimbal, or the video. So much false information. And it seems very biased.
I would suggest reading my honest reviews about this gimbal somewhere in this thread. Short story is avoid this thing like the plague. It is absolute garbage. The features are cool and it generally works well but it also tends to freak out and do a forced multi-axis spin then drop the camera out of its lousy base plate. There is just so much wrong with this gimbal. Save up for the DJI or just go glidecam.
I really like how when I see Fstoppers in my recommendations, I get so pissed that I really need to come here and remind people of what a shit it is. Thank you.
I think for a GH5, the Zhiyun Weebill Lab is smaller, has all the same features plus the underslung mode for the same price. The Weebill Lab is definitely better for travel or being discreet.
Even the design of this thing is an almost exact copy of the DJI Ronin-S - unthinkable that you didn’t notice that after all the buzz around the Ronin when it first came out.
This is the greatest advertisement ever made! Ohw you should maybe mention that in your video or description, that this is an AD or sponsored video......
Seriously, and I think the Ronin s is actually cheaper. 599usd vs 499usd (Ronin). There is nothing mentioned in this video that "blows" the ronin s away. Silly.
Because you can control each motor’s power, follow or lock it instantly without going through the menu. I do think it’s a better buy than Ronin even if they copied the design.
Fin Park I think you’re talking about the trigger. Yes, the trigger locks all the motors. But with the Moza, you can follow or lock one of each axis on the gimbal with a press of button without navigating through the menu or the app. And you can change the power of each motor axis on the gimbal too without using an app. And also the responsiveness / deadpan can be controlled instantly with the scroll wheel.
Does the handle unscrew? I have the Moza Air, and the bottom unscrews where you remove the batteries. Its great because it fits in my bag perfectly. If not, guess Ill stick with the first model as this will be too big
There is just no way you guys dont know about the Ronin S - and that just makes this a video that tells all of us that you cant be trusted in any of the reviews you make. Thats just sad. I really thought I could learn from this channel, but now there is no point watching anything you make.
YoungBlaze I dont think the Air 2 is that old. As far as I can tell the Ronin S showed up a few months earlier and fstoppers just had to know about it.
I understand your sentiment but the end may be a bit of a leap.. end of the day, they are photographers, we all know these sponsored vids/ads/paid reviews (whichever) always seem a bit forced and cringey.. but I let them off as we all need to earn and eat, 99% of the rest of their youtube content is fantastic... and free. So take it a video at a time.
Huh. I always looked at Fstoppers as people who knew their shit. Until now. Either you've missed DJI AND Zhiyun entirely or you're blatantly lying. Neither option makes you look very professional..
Is it just me? I watched this video when it was released and until today i won't believe any other video by him anymore. You always suspect that he might be doing an ad again :/
I'm actually really sad about this video. I've been watching this channel for years, and had built up trust in its views. Videos like this destroy trust. I don't know how I feel about this channel anymore, and that's a shame.
Absolutely sad to see you guys sell away... like we get it you need sponsors that’s not the point! But say it in the beginning... it’s super obvious you got paid to forget about the ronin s. Shame on you guys
Shooting first wedding this weekend and I was practicing the Obit shot on my Moza Air 2 but I couldn’t get my camera to stay orient to the center subject by locking down the three axis es and walking around the subject... must be missing something???
Hello, When I turn on my Moza Air 2, it displays an error message that says "ERROR! (02)". How do I resolve this problem? I have a professional shoot on Friday and I really need to fix this. Thank you.
Are you living under a rock? All of the features you described are available in other gimbals. The first to angle the back to not block access to the screen was Pilotfly H2 45 (the gimbal I own), which was actually patented by the company. That gimbal can also roll (what you call "Inception mode"), can plug in to charge the batteries that last for more than 20 hours, etc. Then most of the other features you discribed are available on the Ronin S (which also wasn't the first to offer a roll feature and an angle back, even though some people are under that impression) , and even some of the design of the Moza shown here was directly copied from the Ronin S. So much misinformation!!! Lastly, reviewing a gimbal with no footage is truly pointless.
I'm lost on these comments. So just because he prefers the moza air 2 over something like the dji ronin s it makes the video sucks?? And if he is paid for the review whats the problem? He makes great content and great content isn't cheap. From the software and equipment....great review man.
Any idea if the Moza Air 2 can only adjust focus on a canon camera with the optional ifocus accessory, or it is possible to adjust focus electronically similar to the Zhiyun Crane 2?
When I saw the thumbnail I knew this was going to be a bad review. I wasn't dissapointed. But I'm still looking forward for my MA2 to arrive next week.
Awesome review literally every single thing that I hate about my Ronin MX this gimbal is covering all that. Now the question is how the heck do I get rid of my Ronin?
I was actually interested in this product, but after seeing him reviewing it, it makes me believe that's its total vice versa. So obvious that they paid him..
I use the gimbal for a shoot and I took the camera off the slide plate, thats it. When I went to use it again the lever that locks the camera down just spins as if it was stripped. I wrote an email to Gudsen just to ask what I could do and all I got back is, "Please kindly offer us a receipt to tell when and where you bought it, the S/N number of the gimbal, thank you!" I provided them with the info and after that nothing. Its Been TWO WEEKS. All I want to know is if it could be fixed and where I could get the part. Thats shouldn't be to hard to do for a company that has about 30 that I know of UA-camrs that have been PAID to endorse this product. I also think if people who endorsed this product don't give true reviews they are doing a disservice to their viewers and should be held accountable just as much as the company. If we follow them we are trusting their opinions, thats why we smash that like button! In the long run it will hurt the UA-camr that backs crap for profit or a free crappy gimbal.
What an awesome video. This Moza Air 2 looks like a great piece of gear I may have to look into. Can you guys do a video like this for the Nikon Z7 & Z6 👌😏
This channel is getting worse everyday. Apparently you think that your viewers are stupid enough to believe that this is an honest review. If this type of scam continues on this channel, I wish you zero success and hope you fail just as your website, which nobody reads because of the clickbait nonsense articles. Unsubscribed.
Great review and totally appreciate you doing it. I'm sure there will be comments from others, but I'll bet THEY haven't used as many gimbals's as you and your team have in real-world environments and can speak intelligently on them. It's like a car. They all get you from A-B. The premise behind ALL gimbals is to steady footage. DJI and others are designed to do that. What bells and whistles each has are what is nice behind reviews. Some may want the options, others may not. Buy a car with or without air conditioning. Buyer's choice. Keep up the good work.
The dismissal of the other products is so frustrating. They're good, but because they're not "different" they're insinuated to be bad. Which isn't the case
For those who have had issues with the Moza air 2 and still want to fix it. Take a look at this video. My Gimbal works like brand new - ua-cam.com/video/TQ0bcENL3GQ/v-deo.html
"Inception Mode" ? Man, its called barrel roll. Its on ronin s, Weebill, and still you say "I've never heard of another gimball that have that'. Really?
I have this MA2 and it is spectacular and easy to use. I love it. BUT, there is so many untruths in this video. Not fussed if your paid review is bias etc...but do the correct research.
Am I the only one who has a question about the batteries? I had no problems until I charged them a couple of times. After that, they seemed to just not work anymore 😩
thanks for your video. I bought the gimbal 3 days ago and I have a doubt that I do not know if it can solve me. Can you control the ifocus with the iphone app? Thanks!!!
I think I'm going to start watching these guys more often just to read all the whiny fan boy comments - awesome!! Of course this is not an objective review. They've done others in the past but this obviously was not. Everyone just needs to simmer down. There are plenty of reviews comparing the Ronin S to the Moza Air 2. I can provide the links if it's that difficult for you to find? Several of them rated the Moza Air 2 higher. Peter McKinnon only reviewed the Ronin S. I'm pretty sure Matti Haapoja (sp?) only reviewed the Crane 2. Does that mean there is a conspiracy?? LOL. Oh maan...photographers/videographers are the most entertaining complainers on the planet. Love it!!
Sorry Robert these are people expecting honesty, I can see why they are mad watching this. You notice there has been an absence of replies from Fstoppers. To me they've been caught with their pants down.
@@markshirley01 - Naah I don't buy that argument at all. I've seen the same ridiculous hate being spewed on just about every photographer's you tube channel when they do a positive and glowing review of something. Take a look at some below calling Peter McKinnon, Peter McCanon because he gave a positive review of the EOS-R. Take a look at Tony Northrup's videos both giving glowing reviews of the EOS-R despite it's faults and then hammering the Nikon Z series cameras. He constantly states he has never received money for a review and he is still hammered in the comments. I could go on and on and on. This is what the photographer community does - it simply spews hate and anger over anything they view as "dishonest". Who's to say that he just really likes the Moza Air 2? What makes that dishonest? Should he have used some of the superlatives he did knowing other gimbals do the same thing? No. Definitely not but that does not make him a paid shill anymore than it does any of those other people doing reviews. It's a freakin' Gimbal for goodness sake! Not to mention this video has only been out for what - 24 hours? I suspect they will respond. The whole community is just laughable. It makes people not even want to provide reviews or opinions because they know some segment of the photography population will lambast them. Now...if FStoppers comes back and says they were paid to say these things - then I'll eat crow but until that time - cut them some slack...
@@RobOnRefresh well you have your opinion. I still think it's right they've faced some criticism for a an advert. You maybe fine with it that's fine. I think people are intitled to be annoyed.
@@markshirley01 - Fair enough Mark. I can understand being annoyed. However, it's a pretty big leap in my opinion to go from calling someone less than objective to calling someone a liar or dishonest. It would be an entirely different story if the Moza Air 2 was garbage and Lee was pushing it regardless. However, as I stated before there are many reviewers on You Tube who have stated they think it is not only an excellent gimbal but better than the Ronin S (it is lighter most definitely and has more features in some areas. I personally think they are on par when it comes to actual footage but that's just a preference thing). I can provide links to at least 3 reviewers who like it better than the Ronin S. Does that mean they are paid by Gudsen as well? I do have to laugh though about the Inception "roll" option that Lee stated no one else has. The funny thing is that it's an option on the original Moza Air before the Ronin had it. I think he's more guilty of not really doing his homework on this one...
I own the ronin s and it does not compare to the moza air 2. It’s heavier and more expensive for one thing. Secondly you can get a follow focus and moza air 2 for the cost of the ronin s by itself. But the biggest issue I have with the ronin s is when you are in flashlight mode and you pan and tilt, the gimbal freaks out and does this weird kick and ruins your shot. I sold my moza air 1 to get the ronin s because of the payload capacity and physical size for balancing bigger cameras. Other than the physical space required to balance front heavy lenses I would have kept the moza air 1. It never freaked out even when doing the craziest pans and tilt combinations. Y’all who are shouting Ronin s are ignoring a lot In order to do so. And this thing is not competition to the weebil lab. They are two totally different gimbals for different purposes. You can’t even balance an e mount sigma art lens on the weebil lab. It does not have enough physical space to balance front heavy lenses like that. You guys are smokin too much to even start to compare the moza air 2 and weebil lab so please let’s not start that discussion. The moza air 2 is a beast and nothing on the market can touch it in its class of weight capacity, price, and features. I speak from experience not fan boy beliefs. Try the moza air2 and return it if it does not live up to the hype. Unless you get a defective unit I’m willing to bet you won’t return it. And none of y’all are even mentioning the fact that many other reputable channels are calling this a ronin s killer.
I purchased the moza air 2 and it kept falling asleep and turning off randomly. The gimbal was balanced correctly too. Also the build quality feels way cheaper than a 600 dollar product. The build quality between the dji and moza is night and day. I went with the ronin s and had zero issues. Also the battery thing was annoying taking them out and having a separate charger. I don’t know. This seemed to be more of an ad for moza than an actual opinion about it.
That was happening to me with Moza Air 2S but eventually, I found that it was happening as my Roll axis was locked and Moza instead of giving clear message, kept going in sleep mode and eventually turn off.
Well i guess if MOZA pay me too, i'll totally ignore the existence of Ronin S also 🤷🏿♂️
or even the weebill lab
That’s exactly how I feel when he doesn’t mention the Ronin or the Zhiyun
savage
Isn't the Ronin start at like $700 though?
I own the ronin s and it does not compare to this thing. The only thing I would say it beats the moza in is a more metalic construction.

Is it possible to set the roll motor at the front like you can on the Tilta G2X? This would suit longer cameras better
Wow, this thing does it all! Haha! Thanks for the video, very informative.
Im pretty sure the Ronin S has inception mode and many of the same features as this......
Didn't the Moza Aircross have roll/inception mode? I think that came out in late 2017. So I guess Moza had roll first?

There is just no way you guys dont know about the Ronin S - and that just makes this a video that tells all of us that you cant be trusted in any of the reviews you make. Thats just sad. I really thought I could learn from this channel, but now there is no point watching anything you make.
This video must of been filmed a year ago and just now coming out.... thats what i think , its gotta be right?
YoungBlaze I dont think the Air 2 is that old. As far as I can tell the Ronin S showed up a few months earlier and fstoppers just had to know about it.
I understand your sentiment but the end may be a bit of a leap.. end of the day, they are photographers, we all know these sponsored vids/ads/paid reviews (whichever) always seem a bit forced and cringey.. but I let them off as we all need to earn and eat, 99% of the rest of their youtube content is fantastic... and free. So take it a video at a time.
Huh. I always looked at Fstoppers as people who knew their shit. Until now. Either you've missed DJI AND Zhiyun entirely or you're blatantly lying. Neither option makes you look very professional..
Is it just me? I watched this video when it was released and until today i won't believe any other video by him anymore. You always suspect that he might be doing an ad again :/
I'm actually really sad about this video. I've been watching this channel for years, and had built up trust in its views. Videos like this destroy trust. I don't know how I feel about this channel anymore, and that's a shame.
Absolutely sad to see you guys sell away... like we get it you need sponsors that’s not the point! But say it in the beginning... it’s super obvious you got paid to forget about the ronin s.
Shame on you guys
Shooting first wedding this weekend and I was practicing the Obit shot on my Moza Air 2 but I couldn’t get my camera to stay orient to the center subject by locking down the three axis es and walking around the subject... must be missing something???
Hello,
When I turn on my Moza Air 2, it displays an error message that says "ERROR! (02)".
How do I resolve this problem? I have a professional shoot on Friday and I really need to fix this.
Thank you.
Are you living under a rock?
All of the features you described are available in other gimbals. The first to angle the back to not block access to the screen was Pilotfly H2 45 (the gimbal I own), which was actually patented by the company. That gimbal can also roll (what you call "Inception mode"), can plug in to charge the batteries that last for more than 20 hours, etc. Then most of the other features you discribed are available on the Ronin S (which also wasn't the first to offer a roll feature and an angle back, even though some people are under that impression) , and even some of the design of the Moza shown here was directly copied from the Ronin S. So much misinformation!!!
Lastly, reviewing a gimbal with no footage is truly pointless.
Is there a motion timelapse feature?
Now that you have described this as "incredible", I wonder which adjective will you use for the Air 2s...?
Setting is more troublesome.Easy to crash.Do you have any better suggestions?
What about the Benro RedDog F1?
I'm lost on these comments. So just because he prefers the moza air 2 over something like the dji ronin s it makes the video sucks?? And if he is paid for the review whats the problem? He makes great content and great content isn't cheap. From the software and equipment....great review man.
Any idea if the Moza Air 2 can only adjust focus on a canon camera with the optional ifocus accessory, or it is possible to adjust focus electronically similar to the Zhiyun Crane 2?
Awesome review guys, nicely done 👍
When I saw the thumbnail I knew this was going to be a bad review. I wasn't dissapointed.
But I'm still looking forward for my MA2 to arrive next week.
Awesome review literally every single thing that I hate about my Ronin MX this gimbal is covering all that. Now the question is how the heck do I get rid of my Ronin?
I was actually interested in this product, but after seeing him reviewing it, it makes me believe that's its total vice versa. So obvious that they paid him..
I think the DJI has the inception mode.
It does
The Original Moza Air had it before the Ronin S was released.
So, you are joining the Dark Side with Peter McCanon.
Not a review, rather a showcase .. this is why they are in Costa Rica lol
My brand new Moza Air 2 has problem with Fn button, after go to sport mode I can't switch back. Seem like the Fn button has problem. :(
How to switch back to English mode from Chinese mode in Menu screen? Thanks
The threads on my quick release won’t tighten, have you run into this problem with yours?
Plz suggest low prices products for making mobile video
I use the gimbal for a shoot and I took the camera off the slide plate, thats it. When I went to use it again the lever that locks the camera down just spins as if it was stripped. I wrote an email to Gudsen just to ask what I could do and all I got back is, "Please kindly offer us a receipt to tell when and where you bought it, the S/N number of the gimbal, thank you!" I provided them with the info and after that nothing. Its Been TWO WEEKS. All I want to know is if it could be fixed and where I could get the part. Thats shouldn't be to hard to do for a company that has about 30 that I know of UA-camrs that have been PAID to endorse this product. I also think if people who endorsed this product don't give true reviews they are doing a disservice to their viewers and should be held accountable just as much as the company. If we follow them we are trusting their opinions, thats why we smash that like button! In the long run it will hurt the UA-camr that backs crap for profit or a free crappy gimbal.
Would this work with the BMPCC 4K? I know it's a bit wider than the camera used here so it may not balance.
Fake reviews make me avoid the product entirely. If you have to pay to be talked about positively then you aren't good enough.
Is it able to portrait mode?
What an awesome video. This Moza Air 2 looks like a great piece of gear I may have to look into. Can you guys do a video like this for the Nikon Z7 & Z6 👌😏
Can it be used with a monitor which connects to HDMI?
Can the focus wheel control the tilt and pan along with the roll?
How does this do compared to FeiyuTech Ak2000?
This channel is getting worse everyday. Apparently you think that your viewers are stupid enough to believe that this is an honest review. If this type of scam continues on this channel, I wish you zero success and hope you fail just as your website, which nobody reads because of the clickbait nonsense articles. Unsubscribed.
Might as well just say this video is sponsored by B&H (if an affiliate link is being used) & MOZA for paying for the review.
You've never seen any of these things on another gimbal? Have you been asleep for the past year? Living under a rock? Good grief.
Does this thing support something bigger like a fs5?
Great review and totally appreciate you doing it. I'm sure there will be comments from others, but I'll bet THEY haven't used as many gimbals's as you and your team have in real-world environments and can speak intelligently on them. It's like a car. They all get you from A-B. The premise behind ALL gimbals is to steady footage. DJI and others are designed to do that. What bells and whistles each has are what is nice behind reviews. Some may want the options, others may not. Buy a car with or without air conditioning. Buyer's choice. Keep up the good work.
Hi mate, I think feiyutech AK4000 will be better than this one. Could you help do a test and make a video? I can send you a sample.
Is better than ronin s?
The dismissal of the other products is so frustrating. They're good, but because they're not "different" they're insinuated to be bad. Which isn't the case
Is this a joke? Like the weebill and the dji ronin s doesnt do this and more? Is this like a political "i got paid under the table from this company"?
When Fstoppers doesn't give a f about other similar gimbals...
Is it compatible with fujifilm xt3..?
@2:55 it is lit
Is it compatible with Nikon Z6 ?
For those who have had issues with the Moza air 2 and still want to fix it. Take a look at this video. My Gimbal works like brand new - ua-cam.com/video/TQ0bcENL3GQ/v-deo.html
Does it has a cable for canon 80d?
"Inception Mode" ? Man, its called barrel roll. Its on ronin s, Weebill, and still you say "I've never heard of another gimball that have that'. Really?
Can this fit in a Lowepro Protactic 450 AW II?
I have this MA2 and it is spectacular and easy to use. I love it. BUT, there is so many untruths in this video. Not fussed if your paid review is bias etc...but do the correct research.
Am I the only one who has a question about the batteries? I had no problems until I charged them a couple of times. After that, they seemed to just not work anymore 😩
Yep. Mine lasted about 5 cycles and now only charge about 50% Like everything else with this gimbal, they are junk.
Can you power this with a power bank with no batteries inside?
No. You need batteries in it for no logical reason whatsoever. You'll need more power, i.e. a vmount battery.
@@HikingWithCooper thanks for the reply
The Roznin Air S 2
Hahahahahahahhahahahahha
Glidecam killer.
Sounds like you were paid to say that.
thanks for your video. I bought the gimbal 3 days ago and I have a doubt that I do not know if it can solve me.
Can you control the ifocus with the iphone app? Thanks!!!
according to youtubes tos - shouldnt you mark sponsored content as sponsored content?
How does the MOZA Air 2 work with a 1dx mkII?
I think I'm going to start watching these guys more often just to read all the whiny fan boy comments - awesome!! Of course this is not an objective review. They've done others in the past but this obviously was not. Everyone just needs to simmer down. There are plenty of reviews comparing the Ronin S to the Moza Air 2. I can provide the links if it's that difficult for you to find? Several of them rated the Moza Air 2 higher. Peter McKinnon only reviewed the Ronin S. I'm pretty sure Matti Haapoja (sp?) only reviewed the Crane 2. Does that mean there is a conspiracy?? LOL. Oh maan...photographers/videographers are the most entertaining complainers on the planet. Love it!!
Sorry Robert these are people expecting honesty, I can see why they are mad watching this. You notice there has been an absence of replies from Fstoppers. To me they've been caught with their pants down.
@@markshirley01 - Naah I don't buy that argument at all. I've seen the same ridiculous hate being spewed on just about every photographer's you tube channel when they do a positive and glowing review of something. Take a look at some below calling Peter McKinnon, Peter McCanon because he gave a positive review of the EOS-R. Take a look at Tony Northrup's videos both giving glowing reviews of the EOS-R despite it's faults and then hammering the Nikon Z series cameras. He constantly states he has never received money for a review and he is still hammered in the comments. I could go on and on and on. This is what the photographer community does - it simply spews hate and anger over anything they view as "dishonest". Who's to say that he just really likes the Moza Air 2? What makes that dishonest? Should he have used some of the superlatives he did knowing other gimbals do the same thing? No. Definitely not but that does not make him a paid shill anymore than it does any of those other people doing reviews. It's a freakin' Gimbal for goodness sake! Not to mention this video has only been out for what - 24 hours? I suspect they will respond. The whole community is just laughable. It makes people not even want to provide reviews or opinions because they know some segment of the photography population will lambast them. Now...if FStoppers comes back and says they were paid to say these things - then I'll eat crow but until that time - cut them some slack...
@@RobOnRefresh well you have your opinion. I still think it's right they've faced some criticism for a an advert. You maybe fine with it that's fine. I think people are intitled to be annoyed.
@@markshirley01 - Fair enough Mark. I can understand being annoyed. However, it's a pretty big leap in my opinion to go from calling someone less than objective to calling someone a liar or dishonest. It would be an entirely different story if the Moza Air 2 was garbage and Lee was pushing it regardless. However, as I stated before there are many reviewers on You Tube who have stated they think it is not only an excellent gimbal but better than the Ronin S (it is lighter most definitely and has more features in some areas. I personally think they are on par when it comes to actual footage but that's just a preference thing). I can provide links to at least 3 reviewers who like it better than the Ronin S. Does that mean they are paid by Gudsen as well? I do have to laugh though about the Inception "roll" option that Lee stated no one else has. The funny thing is that it's an option on the original Moza Air before the Ronin had it. I think he's more guilty of not really doing his homework on this one...
I own the ronin s and it does not compare to the moza air 2. It’s heavier and more expensive for one thing. Secondly you can get a follow focus and moza air 2 for the cost of the ronin s by itself. But the biggest issue I have with the ronin s is when you are in flashlight mode and you pan and tilt, the gimbal freaks out and does this weird kick and ruins your shot. I sold my moza air 1 to get the ronin s because of the payload capacity and physical size for balancing bigger cameras. Other than the physical space required to balance front heavy lenses I would have kept the moza air 1. It never freaked out even when doing the craziest pans and tilt combinations. Y’all who are shouting Ronin s are ignoring a lot In order to do so. And this thing is not competition to the weebil lab. They are two totally different gimbals for different purposes. You can’t even balance an e mount sigma art lens on the weebil lab. It does not have enough physical space to balance front heavy lenses like that. You guys are smokin too much to even start to compare the moza air 2 and weebil lab so please let’s not start that discussion. The moza air 2 is a beast and nothing on the market can touch it in its class of weight capacity, price, and features. I speak from experience not fan boy beliefs. Try the moza air2 and return it if it does not live up to the hype. Unless you get a defective unit I’m willing to bet you won’t return it. And none of y’all are even mentioning the fact that many other reputable channels are calling this a ronin s killer.
Ok Moza salesmen.
@@RayValdezPhotography Try both and dont assume.
