hohem iSteady MT2 Gimbal Stabilizer for Camera, Upgrade 3-Axis Gimbal for Mirrorless/Pocket Camera/Action Camera/Smartphone, OLED Display, Gimbal Stabilizer for Canon/Sony/Nikon/iPhone

As a music producer who shoots music videos of myself, this gimbal is invaluable! The AI tracker works amazingly, surprisingly, well and the ability to start/stop tracking and also reframe the shot with hand gestures is super clever! Doesn't matter if you have a wide or tight lens on the camera, you can frame the shot exactly how you want and the tracker will maintain that framing as you move around the scene. Simply amazing stuff! The built in light is also an great feature for shooting in darker scenes, but it's really only useful if you're up close to the gimbal like in a vlogging situation. No other gimbal I've seen has these two features built in. As a result, while the build quality and stabilization are not nearly on the level of the DJI gimbals that I've used, this remains my daily driver because it has features that are unmatched by the DJI gimbals (you need a raveneye, complex setup with an app, cables, etc.) I also tried the native panasonic s5ii tracking with the dji rs3 mini over USB-C, and that still didn't work nearly as well as the Hohem iSteady MT2 tracking. The tracking struggles a bit in low light situations, and also in heavily backlit situations. I'm guessing this is because it uses a tiny built in camera. Otherwise in 90% of situations it works well. Build quality is not great, the scroll wheel on the left side came loose and i just removed it. Sometimes calibration gets off and needs to be recalibrated frequently, fortunately this only takes a few seconds with five presses of the mode button and doesn't require an app. In fact, nothing on the gimbal requires an app to use which is a huge plus. As stated before, the motors aren't as strong as something like a DJI ronin sc or rs3 mini. That said, the stabilization is sufficient especially if you're using it in combination with IBIS or lens IS. The gimbal is easy to balance and the axis locks work as expected. Overall this thing is great, and I hope it pushes DJI to incorporate the built in lighting and AI tracking features into their gimbals. Until then, I will continue using the Hohem!

UPDATE (11/10/2023) I'm leaving the original review below for reference. After posting a video about the AI tracking failing, someone commented that it wasn't broken, it just needed to be reframed. You have to put both hands up with your thumb and forefinger out like you're framing a photo. The AI light begins to blink green. Then you reframe the image using the gimbal joystick to where you are centered and then hold up the gesture again and the AI locks in that position. Meanwhile, I had an email sent to Hohem's customer support. They read my email, watched my video, and then responded, asking me to take a few steps to reset the AI tracker piece. They offered to replace the unit if these steps did not work. I add this in here to add assurance to anyone looking to purchase that they do indeed provide support. I won't need a replacement as I figured out the problem I was having from my original review. It is a great gimbal. Original review -- The AI tracker feature aims too low. My gimbal is all weighted correctly and I used a Fujifilm X-H2 with a 13mm Viltrox lens and I used an iPhone 15 Pro Max and both of them would aim right at my chest when I activate the AI tracker. It's like I need to calibrate the tracker. However, I can not find any documentation or help in making the AI tracker aim higher. My head is cut off in all test footage I've tried. The only way I can get my whole head in is to back way up, and that is not how I wanted to use this gimbal. Unfortunately, I have to return it.

Have to give it a 1 star-right out of the box error code 03. One of the locking mechanisms did not lock at all. Did some research on YouTube and found this to be common. Defective right out of the box. At first I thought I was not balancing the thing correctly. Watched the tutorial over and over-finally realized the arm did not lock so I returned it. May try to order another to see if I get a good one in. If it comes in defective again, will forget it completely.

This gimbal supports more weight than all the gimbals made for phones, and I needed that to support a data cable coming out of my iPhone. It also has at least 3 ways to remotely Pan and Tilt, which was one of my top goals in buying this. Search the web for "3 Ways to remotely pan and tilt an iPhone" for my video on that. I had an issue where one of the locking mechanisms would lock when it rotated across that direction, but Hohem replaced the gimbal and it hasn't happened since. I like the Hohem AI module. It keeps my face in frame without being overly agressive in movements (looking at you DockKit). My next gimbal will have a built in USB-C Gen 2 passthrough connector so that I can have a USB-C Hub connected to my iPhone without having to support the weight of a cable dangling out of the iPhone. But until then... I am very happy with this gimbal.

I bought this to try with my CALF VR180 but ultimately didn't go with it because the light was in my 180 view, and for various reasons went with the Zhiyun m3s instead, but really liked the MT2. It just wasn't better for my camera. Pros: Solid Grip and positioning Amazing AI tracking Folds nicely Light Battery life (Personal preference, Black color, Quick Release clearance for camera door) Cons: Not as refined performance as Zhiyun Loud Beep on Power on and Off Janky Menu Light is Low Brightness Light button clicks ¼ screw placement (Visible - mic and side light for vr180) Needs rebalancing after off and on quick release

Perfect all around gimbal for all my cameras. Easy to use.

Once you balance this baby out and connect your camera bluetooth to it, you're good to go! I can't say enough good things about Hohem Gimbals. This bundle came with so many accessories, cables, and even a mount for a smart phone!

Il prodotto è molto buono funziona molto bene il tracking della A.I mi segue quindi direi che funziona. Per mettere la mirrorless e il cellulare è stato un pò complicato capire il bilanciamento. Per fare video ad altre persone è ottimo per riprendersi da soli bisogna ingegnarsi x fare un video ottimo e audio naturalmente.

It is a great product. Works perfectly well, i would recommend watching video tutorials on how to operate the hohem and to learn all of the functions. Learning all this before hand makes the setting up process alot easier. I use a Sony A6400 and also attached lenses and ND filters and it holds the weight perfectly. Great value for money especially for beginners who want to invest in a good equipment.

Tam olarak detaylı inceleme fırsatım olmadı ama ilk görüşlerim fiyat performans ürünü olarak görünüyor

Stabilisateur au top , je me régale avec et très facile d'utilisation.
