8:52 That comment about being right or left handed, you are incorrect that you can move the joint to the other side. It needs to be on that side otherwise your lens will always cause the camera to point down when balancing.

SONY USERS.....The crane needs a certain amount of weight to be able to balance properly. My a6500 would not balance until i had a 55-210 mm which has some weight to it. To use a smaller lens you must add weight to the camera rig or you will never truly balance it....none of these videos explain that as most people only care about the max payload of the gimbal.

you can adjust the settings via the App, so even lighter setups (a6500 + 16-50) will be balanced correctly..

Hey kraig! I wanted to confirm; once you have a quick release plate and first balance your cam, then take it off and want to put the cam back on (with the same lens), you don't have to rebalance it right? one of the main perks of having the quick release plate?

Hiya, thanks very much for this video Kraig, although I need help with a certain aspect of the device. I can balance the camera on the Crane Plus just fine, but I find it almost impossible to balance the camera once I have attached a Rode Mic or a hot shoe phone mount (with a Galaxy S9 attached). This has become very frustrating and I want to know if there is an easy fix for this. Thanks in advance.

I just saw your video that you referenced. Was it the one at the farm? I like the footage over all. Some of the transitions, I was really feeling. I think also, you cut a little too late. For example, when the bride and groom were at the table signing the certificate. You probably could've cut away from that a little sooner. The drone footage, I wouldn't include the abrupt turns in the footage...I would either cross fade or cut to another angle. I wouldn't show the whole turn. The venue was wonderful, and was the whole wedding party photographers?

Hey Kraig, just a quick question. Why don't you just leave the Manfrotto plate in place on the Zhiyun crane at all times? All you would have to do the next time is pop your camera on maybe make minute adjustments and you would be good to go. no? Or maybe that's what you do but for the purpose of this video, you showed how to balance it. Anyway thanks for this. Love your channel.

Hi, there. Very nice video! I have a question though; when you're using your gymbal to film outdoors using ND filter in a wedding, for example. And then you need to quickly get ready to start filming indoors. What do you do? Remove the filter and switch the gymbal on, even though it is not properly balanced, dyou use the ND filter to shoot indoors, or do you use a second gymbal? Thanks for your time!

Couple questions: Do you change the speeds of it following in majestic mode or any other settings in the app, or change the deadzones of when majestic mode doesn't work after a certain angle? Still trying to figure that out. With this lens, is it able to go upside down without switching it to "selfie" mode first? With my lens setup I have to switch orientation if I want to do it inverted otherwise the joints hit each other (I need to stop using a cine on it anyway lol, just haven't gotten the 16-35 yet)
