Hi All,
In this Review im going to be looking at the 2 Aixs Handheld Stabilizer Brushless Gimbal from MATOP Amazon store
www.amazon.co.uk/MATOP%C2%AE-Handheld-Stabilizer-Brushless-330%C2%B0Coverage/dp/B01EMJQ8KA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1475431083&sr=8-1&keywords=B01EMJQ8KA
I was ask if i would like to review this Gimbal for a smart phone's it looks so cool so i agreed to check it out.
Matop Amazon store provided the Gimbal free of charge for this review.
What is a Gimbal?
Well a Gimbal is a little device sometimes called a stabilizer.
The word Gimbal can be used to describe something that is designed to keep cameras level, the more fashionable term to describe a Gimbal would be a camera stabilizer and anti vibration device.
Handheld Gimbals are designed for exactly that purpose, to ensure that when you are filming your footage, the camera is focusing directly on what you are aiming at without any interference such as unwanted vibrations and shakes.
Handheld Gimbals use powerful Brushless Motors that are very quiet and last a long time when fully charged.
They are designed to adjust the position of your camera in a free flowing way to combat any vibrations you could encounter while you are shooting.
There are 2 main different types of handheld Gimbals, the 2 axis and 3 axis.
The 2 axis only stabilizes on the “pitch and roll” axis, while the 3 axis offer “yaw, pitch and roll”.
This review is for the 2 axis Gimbal
Product discription from Matop
FOR SMART PHONE! Suit to 90% smart phone, like iPhone 5 6 Plus, Samsung, HTC, Sony, Xiaomi, Meizu, Huawei y etc..
• More strong - Base on 2 axis achieve 3 kinds of functions to casual change:auto mode, follow me mode, locking mode, absolute creation.
• More steady - it has independent technology and calculation, achieve motor and axis' acculate control. Eventhrough with heavy joggly, it still can keep balance automaticly and finish multi-posing easily.
• More fun - Build in blooth module ,easy to match and control camera,remove manual control's inconvenience, automatic recognition phones.
• More fast - Collect multi modes ,achieve one key change,bring you convenience to find suitable shooting view. The "no pole plan" make reaction speed and accurate more faster.
The Gimbal Arrived in 7 days from placing my order on the amazon store (100% coupon used)so not bad at all as its from china.It came well packed see unboxing video below
Everything you need is in the box apart from the smart phone so your all set to go shooting.
The device itself is very easy to use & opperates very smooth with little noise & it is also fun to use i can say that.
Simply attach your smart phone (Ballance it correct)turn on bluetooth on the phone & then turn on the gimbal it will connect in a few secands then you set to go.
The battery lasts about 4/5 hours that should be plenty for most users.The gimbal has in total 6 buttons,The main power button on the rear,tilt camera up or down,M1 (Follow mode),M2 (Locking mode) & the start camera button along with two led's One that shows what mode you are on & the other the bluetooth connection status
Another great feature of the Gimbal is the fact is comes with a extension connection at the bottom (female thread) to achieve long-distance shooting (Although it may get a little heavy after a long time)
Some footage of the gimbal in use here
And the video from the phone in the gimbal is here
A quick test on a bike ride
My overall thoughts on this Gimbal are quite mixed.I have enjoyed testing this its been great fun & horses love it too lol lol i think with more practice the videos would become better i was kind of expecting an instant fix to my bad video shooting but it dont seem to do a good jod at taking the shacking out.Its not a bad bit of kit very well made rubberised all over but at just under a hundred pounds i think the price is a little on the high side,,A big thanks to the guys at Matop for sending me the Gimbal to test out..
