    What's your favorite thing about the Smooth 4?

    • @56kct56
      @56kct56 6 років тому +2

      EMT the click in standby is super handy to keep your phone secure as you move between scene and then ready to film within seconds again.
      How did you find the facial tracking I thought it needed abit of bug fixing on the front facing camera . This was on an iPhone 6 however

    • @jerran_duty
      @jerran_duty 6 років тому +3

      Love my smooth 4, it is my first gimbal, but I love the ease of use I can teach my students to use it very simply. The best part for me is the battery life! It is ridiculous, I do need the usb c to lightning port because my phone can’t last near as long! I’ve noticed the motion time lapse is a bit glitchy tho, have you had this?

    • @EMTFILMS
      @EMTFILMS  6 років тому +2

      Yes! I really liked this too! The active tracking needs a lot of work. Definitely did not perform like the Osmo Mobile 2 or the SMOVE Mobile. Currently working on editing that comparison! Thanks for sharing! 🤘🏼

    • @EMTFILMS
      @EMTFILMS  6 років тому +1

      Hahahahaha congratulations! I’m currently editing the comparison. It’s been a bit crazy with the traveling and the work but I’m committed in releasing the comparison before this weekend! Let me know how you like it! It’s pretty solid! Oh btw there’s a new firmware update on their website! It improves stabilization apparently.

    • @kirrinsb9929

    @gunchief0811 3 роки тому +2

    I own an osmo3, but I recently bought one of these. So I look forward to learning all the features.
    There seems to be many features and it looks like a professional piece of equipment for the Film maker who's using Cell phones to make Vlogs. Movies. And content for UA-cam etc...

    So after watching various reviews of gimbals going down the rabbit hole getting introduce to more and more options lol.
    I ended up ordering Smooth 4 on Friday morning and received it Saturday afternoon ( Free delivery in under 2 days ).
    Looking forward to learning how to use this and create some UA-cam and Instagram content of my own

    • @EMTFILMS

  • @famgodoy5964
    @famgodoy5964 6 років тому +2

    Awesome video! I love the idea of being able to control the focus with the wheel and the vertigo shot. I recently got the om2 now I’m getting tempted in getting the smooth 4 not to mention that I really think that it’s priced at an awesome value for only $139

    • @EMTFILMS
      @EMTFILMS  6 років тому

      Thanks! Glad you liked the video! You can actually do vertigo shots with Osmo! Can’t wait to finish editing the comparison to show you! But I like how the DJI Go app handles it!

    • @famgodoy5964
      @famgodoy5964 6 років тому +1

      EMT tutorial on om2 for the vertigo shot? ;)

      @famgodoy5964 6 років тому +1

      EMT I can’t wait to get my computer fixed for my post editing lately I’ve been playing with dji om2 and use the editor on the dji go app, it gives me options to change contrast, brightness and a few other options. I’m looking to get adobe premier soon as I get the computer running, what software you use?

    • @EMTFILMS

    Its so clean and easy to use and makes video fun.

  • @SeeYouInMainstreet
    @SeeYouInMainstreet 5 років тому +1

    Hi there, Liked the video! We have the Smooth4 for almost a year now in combination with the Note8. As you may or may not know the Zhiyhun app doesn't work fully with Android. However I find the gimbal it self has a very good quality / price ratio. As long as the app isn't fully functional for Android I'll use the camera software from the Note8 it self.
    Favorite feature: Beeing able to keep your phone charged whilst filming with the gimbal. Keep up the nice video's and maybe next time 'We'll see you in Mainstreet!'

    • @EMTFILMS
      @EMTFILMS  5 років тому

      Glad you’re liking the gimbal! I’m looking to revisit it it the coming weeks since there have been some updates! Thanks for sharing your time with me! 🤘🏼

      big thanks for reply, seen loads of vids also but not many go into how to use correctly, I only got quick start guide so kinda lost, your vid stood out for me amongst them just clear & concise, new sub here after I finish replying, looking forward to your help 👍🏼

      DJI Osmo Mobile 2 has the better App Integration (Android) if you plan on doing Timelapse/Hyperlapse and other Stuff right from the App. For better Sound an external Mic. Is recommended.

  • @jayhardy6610
    @jayhardy6610 5 років тому +2

    I am or let me correct that, was, a sad owner of the Zhiyun Smooth 4.
    It sets in the local land fill now for it's constant software/firmware
    errors. I bought a Moxi two weeks ago and have experienced a gimbal now
    that WORKS. Wish people like you EMT gave something more true. I am
    far from the only person with problems.

    • @EMTFILMS
      @EMTFILMS  5 років тому

      Sorry you had challenges with your Smooth! I genuinely shared some of the common issues with tracking and software performance overall. Thanks for sharing your feedback!

  • @sibaroochi

    I have a note 9 and ordered the smooth 4. Its flawless. Good thing I gambled with rather than picking up a DJI osmo mobile 2. Its light weight and all functions are working. 4k 60 fps is supported. The only thing not quiete synching is the filmicpro app. I have sent inquiry to filmicpro and is waiting for updates. Really easy to use. Super light weight and handy. And yes motor is sturdy and no unwanted vibrations so far. Worth the price. Bought it only for 100 $ equivalent online brand new.

    It's look like a freaky cool, and really great Gimbal! I like this zoom wheel!
    I will wait a few months ( I just bought one or two months ago my Smooth Q so in this moment I can't affort for new one- especially that in My country this got a higher price) and change my actually Gimbal for this one 😊! It really great. And Your vlog is great too(again)!

    • @EMTFILMS
      @EMTFILMS  6 років тому

  • @sasorifrost
    @sasorifrost 6 років тому +1

    Great video man! I'm looking into grabbing a gimbal for some mobile filmmaking and at the moment really leaning towards Smooth 4. Would be nice for them to jump on board with Filmic Pro sooner rather than later though..

    • @EMTFILMS
      @EMTFILMS  6 років тому

      Glad you liked the video! 🤘🏼
      Currently The Osmo Mobile 2 and 1 are the ones that are compatible with Filmic Pro and I agree! It would be great if there was a standard for all gimbals to be compatible! Thanks for sharing your thoughts with me! 🤘🏼

    I've only just started searching but am looking to buy one of these. I recently purchased a Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra and is generally ok for photos (nothing special) but is cumbersome for videos. I love the way the Zhiyun has so many function and setting adjustments whereby you don't need to tap and menu search the phone. That will suit me fine as most of my activity is photos anyway.

    Thanks! I’m torn between the Osmo and the 4, but here in Canada the Smooth 4 is $40-50 cheaper so I’m leaning in that direction.

    • @EMTFILMS
      @EMTFILMS  5 років тому +1

      It’s a fantastic option when paired with Filmic Pro. Also Osmo 3 was leaked recently so I’d wait to see what that looks like.

    @LoudCitizen 5 років тому +2

    I just got my white Smooth 4. Zowie! What a device! I love the ease of a stabilized shot. So simple. So smooth.
    I’ve had it four days and have done a deep dive into features. I can’t seem to get it to turn on the light to light a shot. They say it’s the center button of the wheel. What’s the secret?
    Thanks for sharing my enthusiasm for this amazing technology. I’m using it mounted on my white BlitzWolf 35” selfie stick BW-BS4. White on white... How cool is that?!

    • @EMTFILMS
      @EMTFILMS  5 років тому

      It depends on the needs of the user. I feel that the Smooth 4 is extremely robust and the Filmic Pro integration makes this a powerhouse. However, for traveling and for social media vlogs I like the Moza Mini S. Both are fantastic at the end of the day! Hope this helps a bit! 🤘🏼

    • @LoudCitizen
      @LoudCitizen 5 років тому

    GReat video. You taught me some really cool stuff. I’ve been using it mainly with Filmic Pro and there is good integration, but you seem to be using within the app. Please tell me what app are you using and can you do a similar video tutorial on using it within the app? Thanks and keep making these, they are great.

    • @EMTFILMS
      @EMTFILMS  5 років тому

      For this video I was using both the ZY Play app and the native camera app. Filmic Pro is definitely what I would default to now a days for a more control. 🤘🏼

    • @ItsMeEbby
      @ItsMeEbby 6 років тому +1

      Jerran Duty Yes. I’ll set 3 spots for the time lapse. Point 1 to 2 is really fast and point 2 to 3 is a normal pace. Then, a few times I would only set 2 points and it would stay in one spot and video would be jittery. Like it wants to go but, it doesn’t.

    • @jerran_duty

    I cant decide whether to buy the smooth q or smooth 4. (even conciderd an osmo 2) Features of the smooth 4 are amazing but I've never owned a gimbal nor have I had any experience with making video's. My basic use for a gimbal is travel. I want something user friendly that can still take amazing shots. Also I only own an Iphone SE so I was wondering would the SE look silly with such a big gimbal like the smooth 4? so torn! Anyway love watching your video's your reviews are simple and to the point. Keep it up!

    • @EMTFILMS
      @EMTFILMS  6 років тому

      Not at all! The SE is wonderful for this! It might actually be better since there no Optical Image Stabilization! I’d say Smooth Q since it packs most features and for a great price! I believe you can get it for about $99 dollars and it has similar features! Hope this helps!

    Hey Bro I love your videos! They are good ^^ I have a Hard time choosing gimbal, now Osmo 2 supports FiLMiC pro support. I have never used a gimbal, so Im in the dark, i Will be using FiLMiC but dont know which one to buy, If i buy Smooth it Will be a lot of buttons without usage, i Will use them in the ZY play to make focusshots or zoomshots but other than that FiLMiC is more powerful. So i dont know, you like the Smooth no? Stabilization as good as Osmo? What Do you think i should go with?

    • @EMTFILMS
      @EMTFILMS  6 років тому +2

      The DJI Osmo Mobile 2 is a fantastic gimbal and it still holds the title for me Stabilization wise. Outside of that the Smooth has way more robust features but if you wont necessarily use them then Osmo Mobile would be my recommendation. Im releasing the comparison tonight/tomorrow so you can have more references. Thanks for stopping by and sharing your feedback with me!🤘🏼

    I've had many different gimbals in my professional career as a cinematographer. I think I also have tried just about all the cell phone gimbals out in the market. I definitely chose and use this Smooth 4 over DJi and all the other gimbals out there. My biggest reason is that this gimbal pairs up very nicely with Filmic Pro. Only DJi and the Zhiyun Smooth 4 are supported with Filmic Pro. My choice is definitely the Smooth 4. Now it does have some short comings especially and sadly to say in the tracking feature. But as I mentioned before, I am a professional cinematographer and as a professional cinematographer, we don't use auto tracking. That feature is mostly used by rookies. Manual focus is what is used in the pro industry. As for the ZY Play app ... it has many features but its very twitchy. I stick with the Filmic Pro app which is more stable and professional. Hope this helps.

    I’ve been checking your channel like twice a day for your new Smooth 4 vids since your unboxing 😂 so excited to see this! I ended up finally pulling the trigger and ordering the Smooth 4 over the Osmo Mobile 2 - I really liked the idea of not having to poke at my iPhone screen as much and since I use iPhone I heard that the app experience really wasn’t all that bad, like it unfortunately is for Android. Still looking forward to that head to head though - I somehow wouldn’t be surprised if I didn’t eventually end up with both. Haha! And for the future, comparisons with that new Smove Pro would be so interesting too.

    • @EMTFILMS
      @EMTFILMS  6 років тому

      Glad you liked the video! Im definitely sharing some of those challenges on the next on but basically the active tracking is not quite usable with firmware 1.74. Tracking is very slow in comparison to other apps from other gimbals. Stabilization is good but not better than Smooth Q, Smove Mobile or DJI Osmo Mobile 2. Their rep shared a new firmware update with me and I’ll ad a last minute comparison after the new firmware. Other than those kinks, it’s got a lot of potential! 🤘🏼

    If you want to use an external microphone on an iPhone then
    be aware that you will need a 90-degree lightning adaptor (which can be
    difficult to get in some countries), a counterweight, and a holder for your
    microphone. The counterweight limits its movements. Does it work - sure, but I would
    never have bought this knowing what I know now. I thought that this was less
    expensive than competitors like DJI Osmo 4, but using all this extra equipment you
    end up spending about that same for a product that is way less elegant and isn’t
    officially supporting heavier phones than iPhone 11. Zoom/focus wheel is nice,
    but you will need a bigger screen to see what you are doing, and you must get
    used to the delay. I personally don’t find great uses for Vertigo mode, but if
    that is incredibly important to you then go for it.

    using a wide angle lens does the motor come into view when holding the gimbal vertically? is it possible to use the built in camera app (from xiaomi mi9 lite for example) or do we have to use the zy app? knowing this gimbal doesn't have the joystick for fine adjustments, the only option we have is to press the back bottom button, do the adjustment and then release it right? thanks!

    Hi, thx so much for all your videos. I recently switched to the Zhiyun Smooth 4 from the Osmo 2 after it broke... Anyway, I like the Zhiyun but miss the ease of motion timelapse using the Osmo. It feels weird to physically move the phone around in the gimbal arm to the positions I want and sometimes it just seems to freeze up when I do this, it goes limp. I love motion timelapses and its really dissapointing that Im having a hard time figuring out a fail safe method of setting it up to go to the right waypoints..... I would love to see a tutorial on this. I have looked everywhere and can't find one........I would love to know the best techniques and settings for cool motion moves that are possible. I find it really hard to set up a scene with waypoints and those additional cool spin, curve moves ( sorry I forget the correct term ). I would really appreciate any advice on the best settings to set. I love the potential of the Smooth 4 and hope that I can make it happen.....its just that it was so easy on the DJI Osmo 2 to get a basic motion time-lapse........of course again the potential is greater on the Smooth 4 with all the setting options..... Thx have a great weekend.

      Initially I filmed DJI Osmo Mobile vs Smooth 4 in NYC. However Zhiyun just updated their firmware and I can already see some small improvements in Stabilization. I will make an all 3 gimbal video comparison after I release the NYC ones since it definitely changed for the better and Smove updated their app! Also Filmic Pro allows you to turn off Digital Image Stabilization which I feel helps a ton with the random jitters. The Optical Image Stabilization is always on and can’t be turned off. The ZY Play app on iOS allows you to turn on or off Digital Image Stabilization as well. I like filmic more for its log profile capabilities and the ability to change the frame rate and bit rate. Hope this helps a bit! I will create those comparisons for sure. It might take me a week or 2 to release but it will happen! Thanks for sharing your time with me! I really appreciate it! 🤘🏼
