DJI RS3 Mini vs Hohem iSteady MT2 Review: Best gimbal for compact cameras

[@joeallison2779]

Thank you very much for taking the time to make this superb video. I am legally blind and found other reviews of the MT2 demonstration of hand gestures difficult to see, whereas your demonstration was very clear and easy to understand. Thank you for that. I look forward to seeing more of your videos.

[@OttoJulian_]

Glad you enjoyed it and thank you so much for your feedback!

[@janscott602]

The tracking feature sold me on the MT2. I have a Canon R, R8 and R6 so it should work on all three. DJI'S tracking is way too complex and expensive.

[@OttoJulian_]

And I think that Hohem will keep improving the sensor

[@Promikes]

​@@OttoJulian_I have r6 but after my fail with Crane M3 which doesn't work with camera...only maybe with 16mm and 50mm without screen fliped to side...i think I will never trust this little power gimbals, I need overpower in terms of weight lift, so I can use it with my lenses, like 24-105. I don't trust that I will be able to use hohem with r6 + 24-105 L, am I wrong?

[@OttoJulian_]

@@Promikes hi again, I think I mentioned in the video that such lens will not be supported on the MT2, I used the Sony one, f4. it's too heavy in the front

[@armando.visuals]

DJI really messed up not putting active tracker in the RS3 Mini. Im hoping the next version of mini will have it and for me will make the perfect gimbal

[@OttoJulian_]

I really hope they do soon!

[@Nemhus]

Hola gran trabajo comparando estos dos gimbals estaba en duda entre estos dos y el zhiyun crane M3, no se si hay otras maecas que tengan gimbals que soporten tantos dispositivos diferentes, así que al final me compre el hohem por lo versatil que es y por todo lo que trae de momento ,creo que me sali a un precio muy bueno ya que adquiri el mando a distancia el kit y un palo extensible extra y todo por 290 , tengo algo de dudas de si acerte o no, aun no lo controlo y lo uso con móvil , pero me gustaria usarlo con una go pro o una camara cuando tenga la posibilidad de comprar una , por eso me decidi con este para no estar comprando varios o cambiandolos cada vez que salga uno nuevo.

[@OttoJulian_]

hola, espero que logres disfrutar de este gimbal!

[@Glorfindel95]

Hi Otto, brilliant video thank you. I bought the MT2. it doesn’t seem to come with a lightning cable, so how do I reverse charge it?

[@OttoJulian_]

you need to buy the cable by yourself

[@CristoforoBonissone]

Hi. Thank you. I have the Sony A7 IV + Sigma 14-24mm F/2.8 AF DG DN E-Mount. Hohem iSteady MT2 could hold them ? also the DJI RS3 Mini could hold them ? I need a small gimbal that holds my equipment without any problems. Thank You

Hello Cristoforo, that's too heavy for the MT2, the RS3 Mini should be able to hold it (This lens doesn't extend as far as I know right?, I know it's heavy but should be fine with the Sony A7IV)

hi! I'm pretty sure that I mentioned all the meaningful differences in my video.

[@OttoJulian_]

bottom line there is a lot to gain with the MT2 if you don't mind about those things were the RS3 Mini is better

Awesome review 👌🏼. Thank you!!! 👏🏼

[@alparslankirman1255]

Are there any better options than the Hohem iSteady MT2 since your video that you could recommend? I would mainly need a gimbal for shots with the Iphone (vertical & horizontal). However, I would like to keep the option of shooting with a camera open so that I don't have to buy another gimbal later. The tracking function is also important to me, as I will often be the “cameraman” and the person in front of the camera. Would you have a recommendation for me?

[@OttoJulian_]

Hi, not much has been released so these 2 gimbals are still my favorites for hybrid use

How did you get the stabilisation so smooth on the isteady test ? I am using a Sony evz 10 with kit lens and I seem to get some shake when ninja walking with it. Are there any specific settings you are using on the camera or MT2 ?

[@OttoJulian_]

hi, I didn't use any particular setting other than setting the gimbal to follow the movements slowly. I try to walk as smooth as possible.

[@OttoJulian_]

For the ZV camera I believe I have the first level of stabilization set on the camera just to help out to smoothen out some movements

[@SonicWaveFactory]

Thanks for this unbiased and detailed review - super helpful to help choose the right product!

[@OttoJulian_]

Thanks for watching! which one did you choose?

[@davidpoo66]

Hi Julian, just purchased a MT-2. I along with other users seem it'd too sensitive hence it goes out of alignment too easily. I'm debating whether or not to return it, so far I used a Action camera but I eventually would use a full frame camera. What was your experience with this gimbal month to date? Thx!

[@OttoJulian_]

Hi. I’d suggest using a bigger camera and get a feel for it before you return it if possible. These gimbals can be used with action cameras but they were not designed with them in mind. A light camera will move around more simply because the motors are too strong for them, the opposite happens when you use something heavier. I like the MT2 mostly because of the tracking sensor but if you don’t care about that, you might look for another gimbal, although, truth be told, there is no gimbal that has proven to be 100% accurate when it comes to stabilization or alignment. There is always a small variation that can happen from time to time.

[@davidpoo66]

@OttoJulian_ Well getting ready to order a full frame Sony, thank you so much!!

[@ShadowExtermC]

Hi Otto, if my Sony rx100mv camera is not on the compatibility list, can I still use the basic movements like pan, tilt, follow, timelapse, hyperlapse? I know the tracking does not require a connection, but I am concerned about the basic movements, thank you.

[@OttoJulian_]

Hi. Yes it will work perfectly. Not being on the compatibility list usually means that the camera will not be able to connect to the gimbal either by bluetooth or with the control cable. But, everything else will work. Moments will be fine and all the features available such as A-B points, wheel roll, spin shots and so on. Basic movements will all work with no issues

[@donnas8408]

Will a Sony a 9 with a Sony 24-70mm be ok ✅ n the hohem mt2? Please advise? Ty

[@MarioSaraiva]

Honestly I can’t decide between the RS 3 Mini, RS 3 and the Weebill 3S. I wanted something light and easy to travel but that wouldn’t be too heavy. The Weebill 3S looks like a great option for my weak wrists and back but it weight more than the RS3 Mini and RS 3 with handle. I have Sony a7iii with Zeiss 50mm 1.8 and 24-70 kit lens. Which one do you recommend?

[@OttoJulian_]

hi. yeah it can get confusing to select one or the other. I think you mean Zeiss 55mm and the kit lens is the 28-70? IF that's the case, both lenses are below 300 grams and that means that the MT2 will hold them, but it will be almost at the limit. The MT2 has the advantage of the AI sensor, but I like the touch screen more on the RS3 Mini and the adjustment wheel that is in the front for multiple reasons. The weebill 3S is a good gimbal too but as you said, everything together makes it heavier, and the handles are something else that you will need to find space for in your backpack or carry on. For travelling, I have not used this one for those motives. Bottom line I think you need to look at the features of the MT2 vs the ones on the RS3 Mini to choose one or the other

[@MarioSaraiva]

@@OttoJulian_Yes that’s what I meant! Sorry 😅 I believe they are all a great option but I need to see what fits my needs best. Your videos and information are very helpful! Thank you for your support and keep up the amazing content!

[@Promikes]

​@@OttoJulian_I think that you need also undersrand that you quite easily sell you DJI rs3 mini afterwards, and you almost unable to somehow sell your Hohem in comparison. So consider this too.

[@OttoJulian_]

@Promikes yeah I always think about that because I usually sell my stuff when I don’t use it anymore, but most people are not thinking about that detail when they buy something because we often think that a product will fulfill our needs. I’ve found that selling something from a less known brand is easier when I say that it is similar to X product. Search results will show it and people look for the stuff on the internet to read reviews, an often, these products have a better price. I sold a Fimi drone 2 weeks after I announced it. Mini 3 Pro has been for sale for over a month still looking for a new owner 😄

[@raczyk]

Any idea when the next version of the DJI would be coming out with an AI sensor?

[@OttoJulian_]

[@iKIMshuffle]

Hello! I just wonder if is my camera is just too heavy? I tried my Leica SL body and once I put lens, it stops moving. Now I put a Lumix G9 and 35-100, it shows Error 3, how do I fix that? Also, is it normal for the gimbal to be hot?

[@OttoJulian_]

I have a few questions. You said you tried the SL body and once you put the lens it stops moving. It sounds like you are mounting the lens while the gimbal is on? Error 3 is an error in the balance, what is the weight of that 35-100 and are you using it extended? The gimbal runs hot if it’s being overloaded with either a lot of weight or an imbalance

[@iKIMshuffle]

Thank you for such a fast response! So, when I try my full frame body, it doesn’t work when the lens is on, and yes, the gimbal was on when I was putting the lens on. So, the Leica 24-70 still kind of light enough to still moves but when 90-280 is on, definitely just not move at all. My solution, I tried my micro 4/3 sensor which is a Lumix G9 paired with Panasonic 35-00. It works and moves but the gimbal gets hot and it keeps on showing Error 3. My full frame is probably just too heavy for the gimbal.

Value in the M2 I mean. Not the DGI. I think I will ultimately buy HOHEM. Just trying to decide between the new M2 and the older M6 for smartphones only.

[@OttoJulian_]

honestly, if you are just going to use the smartphone you should get the M6 (that's MY opinion). The lower section and the app are the same. The tracking sensor is also the same, but you will be doing less balancing with the M6, it's lighter, the sensor can be flipped for "true" selfie mode, etc.

[@peekapeekabooboo]

Right now am sold to MT2 for their creative AI sensor. Unfortunately, hohem is not a software company. It means their AI algorithm sucks. DJI is known for his AI tracking, even in deep crowd they can keep the lock onto the subject. What is going to happen now is that DJI will copy the AI sensor idea from Hohem , perfect it and come back in next version. So, I'll buy DJI next gimbal version. It's steady, can carry more weight and where it lacks can be fixed in next version.

[@OttoJulian_]

Interesting insight. I do agree somehow, but this tech released by Hohem is actually not so new, and other companies such as DJI haven’t done anything similar (yet). I have been wondering for quite some time when they will do something like this, and somehow I think it will not be available in their next gen of gimbals (talking about DJI). In the meanwhile, I think that there is room for Hohem to improve their own sensor.

[@Nonsombun]

If so, they will charge you double the price

Hi Otto, first of all thanks for the review! I have a question to you because I'm on the market to a gimbal. I current using ZV-E10 with Sigma 16mm/Sony 35mm f1.8/Tamron 17-70f2.8 lens. I need a gimbal and the option is narrowed down to : RS3 Mini, Weebill 3s (non combo because it's out of my budget), Zhiyun M3S, Moza Aircross S and Feiyu Scorp C/Mini The gimbail will be use to take some b roll for my channel and also a portrait mode for my Instagram reels. Also is it possible to buy a vertical-horizontal mount kit like from Falcam/Ulanzi to use a camera in a portrait mode with a non portrait-able gimbal like old Weebill 3? Thanks in advance!

I think that the sigma lens and the tamron are quite heavy, to keep it safe I'd go for the RS3 Mini or the Weebill 3S. The MT2 and the Crane M3S might struggle with that weight. The Moza I haven't used and same goes for the Feiyu Scorp

[@rockbyter2011]

Note, the Hohem gimbals are having many failures. I have the MT2 and balancing is always at the limit for the tilt axis even when using an Iphone. It is also very limited on lens use, My A6700 with the sony 90mm f2.8 Macro lens though within the load spec. will not balance as the camera cannot be moved back far enough, the mounting plate if extended buts up against the lens and won't screw on. Only other comment is the "Arca Swiss plates" they are non standard so nothing else fits. Nice idea but poorly thought out.

[@OttoJulian_]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. The payload is a reference and other brands have started to avoid telling customers their payload precisely because of this. It is quite safe to say that a gimbal will not be able to balance all cameras+lenses. It will depend on other factors besides the weight. I wouldn’t call this a failure to be honest, and the arca Swiss plate not being 100% compatible, I don’t know why this is an issue with every single gimbal

[@rockbyter2011]

@@OttoJulian_ I agree but with a bit of thought on the design it could have been made much better with regards to balance.

[@OttoJulian_]

I’m sure they will improve it eventually. If I’m not mistaken this is their first “bigger” version of a gimbal and I’m looking forward for improvements. On the other hand, I’ve found it to be useful when I combine my A7IV with a small lens, but bigger lenses will indeed have some problems as you said 🙂

Your point about the lenses on the camera is the killer for me. If you use Sigma lenses, you're out of luck because they're heavy and too front heavy for most Gimbals! The Sigma 24-70 alone is like 830kg, and the body of a sony is around 520kg, If I had that Sony lens lens you have (24-105) then it would be 663kg and I'd just pushing the limit of the Hohem with just a few kgs to spare. Now I see why these other creators are using smaller cameras in their videos while pretending like there is not a limit issue, and avoiding even discussing it. Thanks for being honest.

Thanks for your feedback! Yeah weight limitation is a major factor, and having heavier lenses like the ones you mentioned are not going to work, and I agree with you, other creators should mention it when they review these gimbals

@@OttoJulian_ I see the DJI RS3 mini is perfect though so I'm going to check that. Thank you, though.

Great ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

hey there! Thank you so much!

[@birdvisionproduction3487]

Do you think the MT2 can hold Sony A7s3 and Sigma 24-70M at full length? Also thanks a lot for this video

[@OttoJulian_]

hi! f/2.8? If that's the one, then no

[@birdvisionproduction3487]

@@OttoJulian_ yeh that’s the one. Thank you

The best part in your video 'My name is...'😅

[@OttoJulian_]

just like your travel videos

[@temirkhansermurzayev6829]

Zhiyun crane m3s or Hohem mt2?

[@OttoJulian_]

hohem MT2 will support a big more of weight, and you can't beat the tracking sensor if that's something that you will use. M3S does have a touchscreen and for me that's a big plus to be able to change settings quickly instead of using the app.

I'm planning to sell my dji rs3 mini. I bought it 2 weeks ago but I think I prefer the hohem mt2

[@OttoJulian_]

nice. So you also have the MT2?
