What about the R3 mini Kyle? 😊🤭 I’m watching your video for the second time.. I got my R3 mini yesterday. She’s all set up and ready to rock and roll. First footage tomorrow. 😊👍🏻💪🏻

[@esbee-records]

Hey, great Video. Got a question. Please can u put the link by the Mic holder at the Crane M3?

[@KyleWattsTV]

It was from smallrig but I’m not sure they make it anymore. This one was a rotating version

[@esbee-records]

@@KyleWattsTV thx 😎

[@esbee-records]

Sorry but i have another question... is it possible to make a vertical mode for Insta Storys like the DJI RS3 Mini? And the second questions is, if u connect the Sony ZV1 with the Crane, is it possible to zoom in and out or is it possible to press the record button on the Crane. I meann i thinks it works with the Blotooth tool but i would lik to know if it fix with the Cable connection. Greetings

[@KyleWattsTV]

It will work to only control the Record button when the cable is attached. And as far as verticle, if you have a base plate or L bracket with a 1/4 mount on the side of the camera then yes you can do vertical. It doesn’t have the same kind of attachments to do vertical like the rs3 mini does

[@esbee-records]

I am using with sony zv e10, I have purchased rode shotgun mic and now I am unable to balance the gimbal with mic on top. Could you please advise what can be done now ?

[@YuriyDtv]

i have ziyun crane m2 whit cannon m50 and a huge mic and am stiĺl able to balance it chek out my balancing video

can you use all the buttons of the crane m3 ?? and if you can focus on objects or focus on yourself without touching the camera, that is, touching the crane m3

[@KyleWattsTV]

The only button on the gimbal that can control anything on the camera is the record start and stop button. The other bottoms control the gimbal and settings

Great looking Gimbal and seems like a perfect match for the ZV-1.

It’s pretty awesome for the zv-1. They also just released the m2 s which is a bit smaller and also made for smaller setups but the m3 is way better.

[@richardsteinbergmakingknives]

Great Video Kyle! You convinced me to get one. Thanks!!!

[@ProbablyLost]

We've been looking for some extra stabilization outside of just the standard in-camera stabilization that the ZV-1 offers. We got the Crane M2 originally but had some issues with the motor keeping up with the camera with the Ulanzi wide-angle lens attached (also felt a little bulky which got some wild looks from people around us while filming lol). This is an awesome review, especially for travel vloggers. Thanks Kyle!

[@PodrozdoAzji]

I saw a lot od divided opinions on amazon about this gimbal. I am still wondering if it will works well with sony zv1, on amazon there are many complains. I am also considering beetween crane m2s or Dji r3 mini. And I am still confused which will be the best option, for quick and easy calibration etc. Does anyone can advice me something? And also do I need to buy combo version for Zv1 to works well? Or, does a tripod from sony zv1 can be used for zhiyun crane m3?

[@KyleWattsTV]

I’ve never had any complaints about this gimbal and the zv-1. Works great for that camera. They did make a new version of the crane called the m3s which has stronger motors and Bluetooth connectivity

Thank you for this informative video! Do you know if there is a way to zoom in on the Sony VZ1 using the gimbal while recording)? Or are you manually zooming in on the camera while it's connected to the gimbal? I've been trying to figure out if I am missing something because I haven't been able to zoom with the gimbal.

[@KyleWattsTV]

I believe that it only controls the rec start/stop on this gimbal when using the cable connection. They did make a new version (crane m3s) which is Bluetooth, but I’m not sure if that can control zoom or not

How does it compare to Crane M2? Does the improvement justify $100 price and weight difference?

[@KyleWattsTV]

100% yes. The m2 is a good gimbal but the motors on this one are way stronger and also future proof you if you ever wanna go to a larger camera. The m2 I had struggled if I used the ulanzi wide angle lens and also the rode micro but the m3 has no problem with them even being used at the same time.

The camera /lens I was using for the talking head parts was the a7siii and Sony 20mm f1.8. All the rest is the zv-1 and the fixed lens

[@Rcschim]

Hey, great to see. Got the M3 a few feeks ago. "only" tested it with my A7c - which is also a great fit. But the ZV1 has it's place and is very nice to use. And it's weak battery can be charged as well ;) On the A7c with 50mm prime, I still had some shakes although I balanced it well (at least I think). So I activated the normal IBIS additionally to the gimbal. Looks better there...

Hey kyle great video, thx alot! I want to buy the zv1 and use it with the crane m3. Because i have no experiences with cameras or gimbals i have a few basic questions. If you buy the original handgrip GP-VPT2BT from sony for the zv1 you can connect it over bluetooth and control the zv1 like zooming or start recording. How do you connect and control the zv1 with the crane m3? I know In the video you said with the cable (i assume i need a micro usb to c cable?), but this is neither really practical nor user-friendly? So i dont really get it 😅

[@KyleWattsTV]

[@djcova6235]

Thank you for this video! 😃 Short helpful! What picture profile are you using? Also, do you color grade?

[@KyleWattsTV]

On the zv-1 I found that standard profile works best for me. The other profiles didn’t do enough to highlights for spend the extra time on. Standard looks pretty good on this camera. As far as grading, I usually do the basic highlight/shadow adjustments and use my go to basic lut that just adds a tiny look to the shot.

It can charge with the gimbal. Connect the gimbal to the camera with the connection cable that comes with the gimbal (I think it’s the usb c to usb micro.) then in the camera you have to turn on the setting “power on usb”. It the. Should charge from the gimbal. It also should start and stop recording with the ref button on the gimbal.

Hey boss, you mentioned being able to connect via cable then using the record button on the handle to start and stop but that you prefer to just push the button on the actual camera, have you actually tested it with the cable?

Also hoping that cable charges the zv1 bc battery sucks on these cameras. Cheers!
