Akbar Taufani well then I would hate to see it in the hands of an average user. I was looking forward to this but stabilization just doesn't look good even on a light setup such as this. Portability is a plus for sure but advertising this as capable of handling a 3kg payload is just false advertising. I won't even go into their software division and releasing the product without advertised functions. Go buy it - it will be good in the future once we finish it; we promise! And all that for a premium price :/

@@betrion7 couldn't agree more about the payload. But even ronin s with the sigma 18-35 still have some limitations. I guess the point of having pistol grip gimbals is to have the lightest setup possible, those payloads are just marketing bs. With heavy setup, I'd rather use something like ronin m.

Great video. Always a joy to see you do your thing.

One of the BEST Gimbal operators out there. So steady and smooth.

Awesome review, one of few or many only review that puts the gimbal to its tests. I have a canon sl2 with prime lenses so knowing how the video looks without image stabilization and crop sensor is awesome, I finally know how videos would look from a gimbal

Finally some real proper footage of the Weebill Lab! Great review as always🙌

Love your gimbal reviews! ❤️

Love everything you do bro. Marvelous work.

Very detailed and nice review Mr. Li. You are so amazing with your camera and Gimbal work..

Great honest review as usual! I really wanted this gimbal but i think I’ll wait for the moza air x to come out.

Thanks for the review Brandon

That was nice and really good example! Thanks bro!

Fan From Thailand. Thank you for review.

Excited for this to come in tomorrow, gonna be using the hell outta it haha

Can't wait to get my weebill lab that will be my first Zhiyun crane gimbal

Awesome gimbal! A real revolution, I hope that they will improve it via firmware in the future. I can see it as a replacement for my Crane 2 if they make it a little more steadier. The design is pure genius. They announced that the tripod will have a quick release for easier switch from under to up position.

Am ever loving yourrem videosss everytimeeee😎👌

thanks for this review!

Great review. Thanks so much.

Great job on the video. Interesting to see it in action with someone of your gimbal skill level. The shape and easy pack-ability do look really interesting. Right now I'm using a Zhiyun Crane-M which is decent with a Canon M50 and M100, but it's so small that not all combinations of lens and camera can easily invert or even fit. The Weebill seems like it would be a nice step up.

OMG!! Just when I said I need a good review for this gimbal on your last video and here you go. Thank you Brandon, you're the man! So this gimbal and the Moza Air 2 are same price at $600 but each for different users: Zhiyun Weebill Lab: is more for Vloggers or travel with light weight setup Moza Air 2: is more for filmmaker which usually pack with different lenses and accessories

Thanks for the review Bro,

This gimbal looks perfect for me. I shoot on a6500, and I am going to be doing a documentary type deal in Zambia next summer, doing a lot of hybrid photo video work. Being able to quickly take on and off the camera is key. Being able to quickly get the shot and move on is key. I would buy this gimbal just for the quick release mechanism, the size, and the locks on axes.

Your ninja walk in on point man

Nice review Brandon 🙂

Dope Video BRO!

planing to get one for me as well

Definitely a great video. I have been waiting for a review on this gimbal. Now I am torn between the Weebill Lab and the Moza Air 2. Despite it's weight I think I'll probably get the Moza, but I am curious about the "Vortex mode" on the Weebill vs. the similar mode on the Moza. I think you said that was a feature that was not working for you?!

The gimbal king

Nice review man. Regarding 4:17, about having to hold the trigger or the go mode button, there is apparently a solution: press the button you want to hold (the trigger for instance) and then tap the LV button 3 times (the up button on the joystick). It will lock all buttons, so now you don't need to hold it anymore to keep the function active. If you tap 2 times, it will lock only the front buttons (where go mode is). So that's the way to go to use it with a monopod, for instance. I didn't test it yet, but the guys on another video are saying it works. Please let us know it it's true

I bought this gimbal last week and returned it immediately due to it's misleading payload, Zhiyun says it supports up to 3kg but on the manual don't recommend use something more heavy than a A7 III + Sony 24-70 F4 and that setup not more heavy than 1.5kg . I really think a lot of reviewers are being very soft on this gimbal only to get commissions when their audience buy the product, I'm truly respect Brandon as a filmmaker but i can't say the quality of this gimbal is aceptable, just compare this footage to the footage on his reviews on other gimbals last year. If this gimbal sucks it's okay, I appreciate more a truly honest review than something like "this gimbal is okay if you use this, this and this... buy it".

I bought one and returned it as well. I really wanted to like it for the light weight and portability. It struggles with panning and jerks, as if it's in a bind, when doing any kind of diagonal movement. Mine also would not hold the horizon level. I had to shim the plate with a thin piece of cardboard. It honestly feels like a toy compared to my Ronin S.

That isn't entirely fair though, because the weight limit is 3kg. The problem is that the weight isn't distributed well with that setup. Just like how you would struggle to carry the gimbal if you held it at arms length, the gimbal is going to struggle to balance a long lens. It is just physics really. Wait for the Crane 3 lab, that will be more comparable to the Ronin S.

You make it look so easy

Regarding enabling follow mode with a monopod without being able to hold the trigger; one could put it in POV mode and flip the physical lock on the roll axis. I guess this gimbals utility depends on what you're looking to get out of it. If you need something that can rival the performance of a larger gimbal, this might not be the ticket. For someone like me, this is perfect. I have one and mount it with an A7iii and the Sony 28mm F2. I have custom buttons assigned enabling both crop mode and Clear Image Zoom to increase my reach. I'm just using it for personal home and travel videos, so I don't need it to be able to be perfectly smooth at run. Just something that works, is lightweight and can easily fit in a backpack. I couldn't be happier with mine as of now.

liked your vid . have the a6400, the shots with no OSS Very helpful. especially since Sony's last 3 lens have no OSS. This gimbal more than makes up for lack of IBIS/OSS. Just what I needed.

Very nice. 👍🏻 I am interested for wireless image transmission. When are you planning to show demo?

Thanks for the great video. How do you maintain deep focus? What are your focus settings? Thanks!

I just sold my Crane 2 for the Weebill. For sure not as stable. Just used it today for my first time. It can’t really handle jogging at all. It’s a great size and love the lock latches. Also light enough for me to use one hand at times vs the heavy Crane 2 always needs 2 hands. I’m keeping it as I’m more of a traveler video guy, but if I were to use this for normal work closer to home, I would not use this. Too many random jitters and such that we could see in your video. I feel I have to be extra ninja like with my moves to make sure it stays smooth.

I haven't used it yet but definitely saw those jitters all around the video. I am mostly filming action scenes where I am running or even overcoming obstacles with my gimbal and the Ronin has always been a great companion. I hoped to find a great and lightweight alternative in this gimbal or it's bigger brother but now I feel like weight really equals performance. If you're interested, what I use my gimbal for have a look at my instagram profile @cinematograaf :-)

Would you recommend getting the Crane 2 which I can get slightly cheaper? No one has really done a comparison video of the two... Is that because it's in a different league??

Ruth Hurst i used to have the Crane 2. I think it’s a much more sturdy gimbal for my a7iii and Tamron lens. You can move fast with it and run around and footage is way more stable than the Weebill. The Weebill is great for traveling, but if you’re not packing light and traveling the world, I’d go for the Crane 2. I’m tempted to buy it again since it’s on sale for Black Friday.

Dre Yohanes with the a6300 its a small camera. Crane 2 seems overkill. You could look into Weebill lab or the new DJI ronin sc. I still like my Weebill lab. Just can’t do much action shots running around which I don’t really do. But it’s grown on me and I’ve learned to move more ninja like to help. But I like it and it handles the a7iii and the Tamron lenses I have. And the price of the Weebill has come down a lot since it was released.

Gimbal master li!

Ive tried so much to balance my A73 with 16-35 f4. But still cant get it done. Any tips?

Great video. I only have an a6000 with 35mm prime lens, I hope it will be ok for such a small camera. I’m all about the portability, but wish this gimbal was a bit stronger though

Wow...zhiyun company is no joke. So innovative.

ahh man you are in Thailand, now we talkin!! another fan from Thailand

oh you are in thailand welcome!

Hey Brandon welcome back yt. Moza air cross vs zhiyun weelab better performance ? I guess both under 1kg right ?

So much shakiness in the weebill. I’m thinking it needs some firmware tweaks to match the crane performances

I hit the like button bfore i even finish watching this 😂

Isn't the 'go mode' better used as a situational tool while you're already filming in pan/tilt follow mode and need to capture a quick moving target or need to reframe to a new subject without a cut.

Hey Brandon, could you please review the Zhiyun Crane Plus?

Hi Brandon, please what audio device did you use to record this review? Is it a audio recorder on you shirt or some kind of wirelles mic to the phone? Thank you. Great Work as usuall 👍👍👍🎬😉

One question remains - is the stabilizing perfomance as good as the Moza Aircross? Or the Zhiyun 2 Plus?

Hey Brandon, Just tried with my weebill that if you press the follow button or go mode button and, while keeping it pressed, you lock all the buttons, you can keep the mode on when you release the button afterwards. Hope that helps!

Hi sir, can this be use on Sony HandyCam AXP55 ? Thank you sir.

2:31 seems like girl in the background got impressed by your moving haha

@6:25 by zoom in / zoom out, won't the balance will shift heavily ( on any gimble model)? or the motor will compensate with extra load?

I own the Weebill and will send it back. I love the size, the weight and the portability...and really tried to love more...BUT the performance is not that good and this is what counts most.

Thx for the info .I was planning to sell my Crane 2 and buy Weebill because I've switched to Sony A7 III and planned to use it with Sigma 35 1.4 or Tamron 28 - 75 mm 2.8. It seemed like a very nice portable setup. It's a shame that they advertise it for payloads till 3 kg and people are having issues with lighter setups :(.

Great review thank you. Now Can this be comparable with Ronin-S and Moza Air 2?

How do u get that depth of field in bright sunlight without ND filter? I have f1.4 and cant shoot at 1/125 without over exposure

Did they increase the motor strength? Because they haven't as far as I can tell and I am not sure they can.
