In today's video were testing out the new Zhiyun Weebill 2 gimbal to see if it's the perfect travel gimbal we've been waiting for. We test it out in a few different scenarios we would find ourselves in during a normal travel vlog; at a coffee shop, in the car, and in the helicopter.

Ah, somebody actually using the Prodcut, instead of just talking about the Selling Points. Great. Thats why i like your Videos.
One of the best video review videos I've seen. Fun but practical and professional. So helpful to have you pack the gimbal! Great video!!!
amazing review and tests for the weebill 2. Helicopter scenes must've been super nerve wracking but ended up being such a cool way to show off the stabilization!
Perfect timing, video dropped on my birthday and I've been eyeing gimbals for the longest time. Thanks for the informative video B&C!
Lots of reviews of this gimbal in the last couple of days. One done by Chris Hau and this one you two did certainly stand out well above the rest. Both videos put the gimbal into tough challenges. As far as I can see, this is a winner of a unit. Thanks.
This was so much fun to watch and overall a great review. The gimbal is impressive! I'm really excited to see the next episodes and how you implement it! :D

Great demo of the new Weebill 2. Testing it in the heli was awesome. It has some nice upgrades from the first Weebil, especially that pull out LCD screen. And it seems very stable, even in extreme testing. Thanks for sharing.
Nice as usual guys, I've been following you this whole year and you really inspire myself, keep on the good work
At 6:29 I was like "Since when is Chris jacked?" He's a doctor, flys helicopters and works out, are you kidding me? ^^

I'm pretty happy with my DJI RSC 2, but that flip out screen is a huge plus for the Zhiyun.
You two are the absolute best. I soooooooo enjoy your content more so the real estate content. Great content guys always a pleasure seeing your work. very inspiring for young videographers such as myself.
Excellent video and review!!! I didn’t think I was in the market for another gimbal 🤣
This video answered a thousand and seven of my questions about the advanced possibilities of Zhiyun Weebill 2. Thank you for doing this
That really smooths things out. Thanks for the review.
Honestly, this was the best gimbal review I've seen to date. Awesome job 🙌
Great tests! We've been intrigued about using a gimbal. Good to get an idea of the benefits of using one. Definitely a plus to not have to worry about staring at a screen the while time to make sure you have the shot.
aaaaaah why is mine taking so long to arrive? I bought it on release day and EXCELLENT reviews like this make super excited. Man, this was an outstanding video, guys! Mad props to you.
Ok I’m on to you. Green screen for you two in the helicopter and a drone for the aerial footage !? Am I right?

I loved the webill S, but heard this one was coming out. Love that flip out screen. Seems like they addressed several of the issues. entertaining and informative review. Win/win!
Thank for creating, you two 🤗
You guys are such an amazing couple. My boyfriend and I started a Vlog too and you guys are our inspiration. I stumbled upon this video while unhealthily eating instant noodles and decided to watch something while I'm eating.. I also realized that my boyfriend has a gimbal from Zhiyun but it's obviously not the Weebill 2. We're both really hoping to meet you in person because we both look up to you, individually and as a couple. More power to both of you! ❤️
Actual testing of the product, wow! I am sold! Zhiyun, please take my money.
Perfect start to a new Month!!
Amazing video again guys, Im a huge fan from Brazil 🇧🇷🇧🇷
This was such a fantastic review. I was thinking about adding a gimbal to my kit but really don’t like the large ones. I will definitely look into this one. Thanks Becki and Chris!

Early for the first time, loved this one. Hello from the Philippines 🇵🇭
Best review of weebill 2 so far!
Such an impressive video and Chris's helicopter skills!!
Oh yeah, I'm definitely getting this after seeing that smooth footage on that super bumpy helicopter landing🤣
The helicopter flight jargon is so cool! Stole the show for me
I have absolutely no use for a gimbal but yet really need one in my life after this video for the helicopter rides I don't take and the vacations I've yet to go on this entire pandemic lol
Becki has the restraint of a saint not repeating and zooming on Chris’ hand movement at 7:37 in the edit. 🤣
Just love hearing…Deadly! Always reminds me of my hometown
I swear this isn't the first time I woke up considering buying a piece of photo/video equipment and then you guys release a video about the same piece of equipment ON THE SAME DAY 😭! Telepathy much? Awesome video. Really helped as Always! Thanks guys✌🤗😎
I wish I had more reasons and time to use my Crane 2 because I would love to have this one but I don't use a gimbal ever anymore. Loved the video and always a joy seeing a nice Heliscape.
Klasse gemacht gefällt mir außerordentlich gut Best Regards from Germany Pidi

Thank you for the video. I use the last version of Weebill 2, but dropped it and have broken some of the parts. Was thinking of purchasing a Manfrotto gimbal, but this new Weebil looks like Zhiyun has made some massive improvements, especially for the UI.

There's video in this quality, holy shoot.
*_the helicopter ride was such a treat to the eyes ..😍_*
Good video idea. Might good to see a laptop included in bag
Becki and Chris two detectives investigating the tough underworld of video and film equipment 👍😂😂😂👍
🔥🔥 nice
I have the Moza aircross 2 but looks like I may need this in my life now...lol
WNY in the house… I just cruised through that area about an hour before seeing this video and was like whoa that looks familiar! Collab in our future? Oh, and good gimbal video.
I laughed way too hard at the very last scene 🤣🤣
Zhiyun's ux/ui has come a long way.
Nice gimbal Becky and Chris
Nothings perfect ... but this seems to be the "perfect" compact gimbal for travel. Great video guys!

Thank You
1:27 isn't bad at all. I'm still using the Osmo Pocket when I need gimbal shots, but knowing how important quality is to you guys, this definitely makes sense to add to your arsenal. Anytime you do a video with the MF, I can't help but get a big grin on my face. Must be so much fun to fly!
I just picked up the Weebill S cuz it was on deep discount due to the new one coming out 😂😂 wondering if it will be worth upgrading (not now but maybe in the future). Maybe I can find a comparison vid here on the Tube. Definitely like the screen and new button layout 👏🏻👏🏻 love your vids per usual! Thanks for sharing 👏🏻👏🏻

Great video, love the actual uses in real life conditions. if it works that well in a helie how good will it be strap to the out side of a car or truck. Be lucky stay safe.
Pro tip, use the follow focus to control the zoom on your lens (if you’re using a zoom).
well i guess i should have waited just bought the weebill 2 months ago, also never been downtown buffalo i usually got to the canalside

the weebill 2 wobbles with the D850 i have a 35mm 1.4 and on lock mode when i move to the left the arm starts wobbling.
Great review, thanks guys.....The battery option kills it for me!
Did you have any problems with the gimbal rolling off axis while turning in the car? I have the weebill S and we love it for the most part, but sometimes it rolls when using it in the truck while making corners. We've never been able to make it stop, even with tons of different motor settings changes.
I'd be scared shitless in that helicopter!
nice video; lcd is nice but small (even compared to a iphone on bracket) and we could wonder how many times we can rotate it before failure. would you recommend it to resc2 or rs2 for such mirrorless camera ?
I'm sold
Weebil, that is so similar to ‘wiebelen’ in Dutch, it means “shaking”. :D
I have a weebill s...do y'all think it's worth it to upgrade? The micro jitters feature is what interests me most. I run with an a7iii and a 24-70 GM lens...I get some micro jitters if I'm not careful with my weebill s...
