    I like the way the Weebills Underslung mode is a little better. I like having that extra grip handle on the bottom. Both look great though. I am still rocking Weebill S, a gimbal is a gimbal. Not many features to upgrade to. LOL Great video.

    I have the Weebill S and have no reason to upgrade but think the RS-2 is the better gimbal based on this, not even considering savings between the two. Underslung mode seems like the only drawback for me in comparison. Seems clunky for when you need to switch on the fly.

    used RSC 2 and the build quality is really poor of the plates and screw holes. They keep on losing and making the camera to shift position which results in camera finally falling to either side of the arm it's sitting on (Note: The Ronin app shows excellent in all 3 axis when put to balance test). Really disappointed.

    I bought a gimbal for 2 reasons, 1. Full Control - I tried both gimbals in a store and I found out that weebill 2 is much better in terms of control. The slung setup in weebill is precise in getting low-angle shots because of how you hold it, unlike the Ronin which my arms getting weary holding it because of how it was set up. 2. Easy to use - Both are very easy to use but with that screen in weebill, I can navigate to the setting much more quickly because I am using 2 different setups and on weebill I can really see which settings I'm in.

    Little tip when balancing that I think you missed here - it helps to lock the pan and roll axis when doing the initial balance of the tilt, then unlock each axis as you balance them (if that makes sense?) I have the RSC2 and I've been loving it ever since I bought it a few months back - loved the look of the Weebil 2 initially, but after hearing a lot of feedback from users, it sounds like I made the right choice with DJI. But as everyone says - generally they all perform the same job very well.

    I own the RSC2 and enjoy it. Dont see the need for a screen either. What i dont like about it is using the hinge for briefcase mode but that is easily solved with a smallrig handle. I also dont like that I cant use raveneye as my a7c is lacking a multiport. Furthermore when connected through pc remote also eye AF doesnt work so I am not using the gimbal controls to operate the camera. Guess this is more a sony issue. With these limitations in mind it still allows me take a lot of great family videos even if I look geeky to other parents.

    i’ve been so conflicted about getting a gimbal. some people say “i got one and never use it” or others say “it’s a waste of money” etc etc. but i feel as if there are just certain shots out there that aren’t possible doing it handheld. like getting a sweeping shot around a subject, shots while on the move (running or in a moving vehicle), moving through a building very smoothly for real estate, etc. i also don’t know if spending the extra buck is worth it? like going for the ronin rs2 over the rsc2 :/ hmmm thoughts?

    gimbals have a time and place. Some shots are simply better looking with them but it entirely depends on the content your creating. In terms of RS2 or RSC2 it depends on the setup your using.. RSC2 will balance fairly heavy setups still

    Just add a black matte and reduce its opacity right down with the text on top. Then either use a crop with key frames to make it slide out or simply keyframe it to move left, right etc off the screen.

    I own the Ronin S and it has no issues with heavy lenses, where it does have fits is when I use really light lenses. If I tune it, it does get better but it still shakes a little. Have you tried a really light lense on the DJI RSC 2?

    I've used the Weebill 2 a couple of times and the screen already is scratched from the poor design. Also right now you can't assign the record button only to start / stop record, it also autofocuses. Compared to weebill S, the fact that you can't switch between ap, iso and shutter with the big wheel, is a downer. Also it sucks if you're left handed and want to use the joystick compared to Weebill S. Not to mention it's not as smooth in following movements, it jumps easily regardless of deadband settings. Battery is not as advertised, while the Weebill S would last me 3 days of intermitent shooting, Weebill 2 is at 40-50% after 1-2 hours of shooting on and off.

    make sure you do shoulder, bicep, tricep, forearm, wrist weight lifting exercises to build up strength. Hold the gimbal close to the body as possible, that will reduce fatigue on your arms. You can hold with one arm, then switch hands. Doing all three should get you a great length of time.
