    For some reason I cannot connect Panasonic GH5 with AK2000C gimbal. There are only Sony models under connect camera function. No camera list under Canon or Panasonic. It ask to update "need to download corresponding keyboard firmware, continue?" and if click to OK, it checks, it tells that list is updated but no option to choose any Panasonic models. Any clue how to connect Panasonic via Wifi?

    Hi Dini, so your gimbal is balance properly now? with the a6500, you shouldn't choose the smallest payload. With the gimbal balanced, place it on a table turned on, and adjust the payload setting so it doesn't bounce or vibrate.

    @@AnthonyTadle Ah i see what you mean. Actually, the camera was balanced correctly. But when I started the gimbal, the gimbal arm (or the camera lens) was pointing the "wrong" way, therefore the gimbal will point backwards. (facing the LCD). I just need to flip the camera around and restart the gimbal and it will face the right way :)
