How To Get Good Gimbal Shots

[@2cats1guy]

Okay, so setting up my RS2 for a corporate gig and, watching this, the main thing I took away was how far you've come in 3 years. Holy smokes man. This compared to your latest stuff is like night and day. Your growth is major inspiration for me. You are awesome and thank you for always evolving.

[@chandrashekharmayakirshan9553]

Honestly, thank u for actually SHOWING and explaining how to do each move with example.

[@CfTesla]

Just got the DJI RS2 and really needed this video! Thanks

[@kellyhartman7266]

I have just discovered that, when doing indoor shoots (Like for Real Estate) you can get super smooth forward or reverse motion by using a wheelchair. I happen to have a few due to a former issue sitting in my garage, and realized this. I set it at an angle to my waist and use a neck strap, or even jest strap it to the chair, and you essentially have a super cheap track. I shuffle my feet to move the wheelchair if I am in it, or push it if I tether it to the chair. Absolutely zero walking bounce. (you can pick up a cheap travel chair on the used market for next to nothing, and it’ll fold up and snap in your trunk.)

[@thehumanityoflife6460]

How about a foldable walker? It is even more compact.

[@TheQuark6789]

Based on this idea, I just figured out that a spinny office chair is great for pans too!

[@CorrosiveH2O]

Better Call Saul moment

[@rezjrprod]

My mentor who was the DP for Orson Welles used a wheelchair all the time on his movies

I can’t fined the link. Can you help. Please

[@YokosoOtaku]

Thanks for the tips. I felt silly I thought just having a gimbal was enough, but practice makes perfect! I got a lot of work to do!

[@Soul_Visuals_Photography]

saaaame.

[@Matt.Bogosian]

Stumbled into this video while searching for video on using my gimbal. So far this one is hands down the best. Appreciate the tips.

[@knight8821]

Your English mess-ups are amazing they actually pulled me back into the content it's like a natural interrupt and it makes you more relatable and entertaining! Thanksnfornleaving them in. Amazing videos man love the lighting and backgrounds in all your videos.

[@PhillipSkraba]

The ninja walk. It's a classic. We used to have to walk up and down stairs at uni, holding a book on our head whilst looking through the eyepiece of a camera, that trains you real good!

[@PeterLindgren1]

Haha that sounds dope!

[@habtamumihret8486]

i am from ethiopia, i like the way you present....i like your color grading ...i like your studio ...it is really a nice tutor.

[@shresthastudio7331]

foreground tips is the best tip for me it`s game changing tips thank you so much Peter.

[@calebgivens2549]

This is the first video of yours I have watched - the thumbnail grabbed me in and was just the type of content I am looking for as I'm new-ish to gimbals. Great videos! Definitely subscribing. Your humor is *chef's kiss* perfect. Had me rolling a few times for sure. Thank you for the great content!

[@WeWynne]

I watch a lot of your videos and even when I'm watching something new that I already knew how to do, it's still awesome to hear someone more talented than myself reinforcing these techniques.

[@waynesbigw2305]

This video has helped me a lot. I used your link in the comment section to buy the quick release thing. Thanks for that tip, and all the other ideas and tips how to use a gimbal. After watching the whole video, I rewatched some parts just to get the idea. Wish you well.

[@dvampofo]

Purchased my Ronin SC this month and stabilized it(finally!). I'll be using all of your advice to create some interesting content for my channel. Thanks Peter and keep up the great work!!

[@freestyleskyline]

If I could state onne gripe, it would be that you switch the picture-in- picture with the full size; and sometimes the full size is your example, and other times the picture-in-picture is your example. So basically when we're watching we're e not sure which screen is more important to follow for what you're explaining

[@photographytalk]

Bro, you crushed it here with these tips. Keep up the awesome work Peter!

[@PeterLindgren1]

Thanks man! Will do my best.

[@ColmMcCann]

Some good tips! I think I saw somewhere that when walking forwards and doing the ninja walk that it also helps to angle the gimbal forwards too so it can help take a little more shake out of the movement - whereas holding straight up accentuates the shake and prevents the gimbal countering it...,

[@MrrAlien]

I also just got my first gimbal and this is probably one of the most useful videos I've stumbled upon I'm totally subscribing

[@saikatbose7646]

Thanks for ur good suggestions.....that how to use gimbal for new commers.

[@BTPGamingPro]

Great lesson in Gimbal usage. I don't have one in fact I have a 10 yr old camera that was about 100 when I got it but your vids make me want to get some equipment to experience your art form! Thanks for the video!

[@McKeys-w3q]

its really awesome especially when your being specific thanks Peter hope to follow your lessons continuously

[@TravelAlways316]

Dude THANK YOU for explaining the manual focus wheel dollying forward. I’ve always wondered with shots where you move forward or back where you’d have to grab focus again- what do you do??? Thank you!

[@PeterLindgren1]

You're welcome dude! I had issues understanding that myself when I started. Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@TravelAlways316]

If you could share all your tips for manual focus handheld and gimbal I think that would be super helpful. You’re content is helpful! 60K soon!!!

[@janmichaeladamos665]

Watching you work on your gimbal makes me feel that I can do it as well.. benro Red Dog R1 user here..

[@50bswe]

Tack för tipsen. Den här video kommer att hjälpa mig mucket. 👍🏼

[@Leilanikake]

I've just purchased my first DJI RS Gimbal and I enjoyed your easy to understand, down to earth tutorial! Going out to practice my Gimbal walk!lol. Peace from New Zealand!

[@hazsan5]

Honestly, thank u for actually SHOWING and explaining how to do each move instead of just showing us the end result

[@shazbk7616]

From the USA, thanks for your suggestions, miss Gothenburg!

[@patrickgamble9014]

Hi Just caught your video and the iphone app trick at 00:23 was incredible - heaps of good advice - I'm learning how to best use a new gimbal so this video well appreciated

[@Robert.Macdonald]

I had never used a DSLR gimbal before and bought the Ronin S which took me f*****g ages to balance it! Maybe it was just me.... FYI my new EOS R arrived and I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!

[@PeterLindgren1]

Haha first time can be a pain in the ass (no pun intended). But once you get the hang of the balancing it gets easier! Awesome, I'm yet to try it out but I can imagine its dope!

[@exploretogether1081]

Thank you for sharing this information. I need a Gimbal and knowing how to set it up will really help.

[@wvansluisveld3011]

Good stuff man, still very relevant. The gimbal walk is super tiring. Was completely worn out following my kids around for 15-20 mins.

[@NickinNashville]

Literally one of the most helpful videos on KZbin . Many thanks !

[@kusek712]

Sir, definitely the best video about shooting vith gimbal, thank you a lot, it really helps me figure out some shots, which I wanted to shoot, but they didn´t look as great as now, have a nice day

[@DJAfinque]

I was just looking at a DJi ronin s gimbal and then seeing your video explaining a lot of points from how to handle it and what works I was like I need to buy me one even though I already have a DJi Osmo Mobile 3 which I am still learning.

[@Whiskeymovie]

I don't know if you are the same Peter Lindgren from Opeth, but if not, I found another Swedish (or Scandinavian) Peter Lindgren to admire. Being of Swedish ancestry myself and growing up in the United States in a very NON-Scandinavian state (New Jersey), I always appreciate the forced Swedish Chef accent, which clearly you are good at. Also, thanks so much for the awesome information. Always love to learn a few new gimbal techniques. Cheers and Rock On!!!

[@thelgcyco]

Still useful today. Thank you for the tips!

[@13fridayE]

Nice one dude!!! By the way the walk is called ''The ninja walk''

[@PeterLindgren1]

*Silently walks by*

[@13fridayE]

You're welcome, Thanks for watching!

[@lonniesfilmmaking333]

Cheers so much I appreciate all your know how 😊 In a recent tutorial someone recommended ditching the ninja walk altogether and learn to walk heal toe like we’re naturally meant to ❤

[@PeterLindgren1]

Heel to toe is how you do the ninja walk 👍🏼

[@EnforcerMan]

Awesome video man. I got a Ronin S about a month ago and I just spent a few days practicing balancing... after that I need a lot of practice. So far I use it a lot to shoot myself for this commercial I’m working on and I picked it up from your beer video 😎 thanks to you this project I’m working on is a little easier. 🍻💪🏼

[@PeterLindgren1]

Thanks man! That's awesome, hope the project turns out totally dope. And look at that, crossed the 1k mark man. CONGRATS!

[@kurnazmustafa]

Thanks for the information, very nice explained. Wish you a nice Sunday and best regards John;)

[@christopherrasmussen8718]

Gimbal walk, = duck walk. I got a Sony A9 and the Ronin SC. Heavy all together. Im 60 and your not (joke). I am not going to talk about any crouching shots. One thing I want to do is get an extension rod to screw in, in place of the tripod extension. something longer so I will have better leverage. Good tips there Alpha Male with the big guns! keep it up. I subscribed.

[@CHARCHICHI]

Thank you! I'm working with the Ronin S and Canac EOS Rebel 7....Your tutorial really helped out a lot!

[@drivenbyboost]

Thank you so much for these techniques. I can’t wait to apply them to my next videos. Once again another killer tutorial, I appreciate it my man 💪

[@bharathmsurya4474]

Hey peter! Thanks a lot.. u taught me one of the most important thing i wanted to learn at present.. I'm going use it in my short film.

Hi Peter. What do you think, DJI Ronin S vs. Zhiyun Crane 2. Big difference or not?

[@brokenoutline]

Great information and video. Thank you Peter !

[@youssefboulhous5677]

nice one bro . that's good Peter and awsome video .

[@peterkleintdc]

First of all, thanks so much, great video. It played automatically after another couple of gimbal videos and I didn't see your name, I thought I could spot some accent which could've been Swedish in the beginning but not more than that. So, very funny in the end venn you switched till Svenska och some västkustmål, snyggt gjort, och tack igen!

[@triblemaster]

Sjukt bra video. Tack!

[@850Tech]

I got my first gimbal in 2024 a used Ronin SC. Thanks for these amazing tips. Because everyone else said you gotta go slow motion and you didn’t. My A6400 doesn’t even support 4k slow motion

Great movie. Thanks. Just bought DJI Ronin SC today :)

Thanks! Good choice, they make some great gimbals!
