Only the Potato can make some chair b roll look amazing.

[@AntJoseph_]

Michael Pruett yep. Same

[@dathofilms]

not even PM?

[@NewLifeMoves]

That's what I thought too

[@groovesmedia989]

i would scroll to the comments to read yours immediately that chair scene.

"I need a good clickbaity thumbnail". Your honesty is refreshing, sir. Consider me subscribed.

[@blazintommydblazintommyd4416]

You are 100% correct in regard to the follow focus mini rod attachment. The hot set up would be a super light quick release plate with real shot rod(s). That way, the follow focus would move with the plate. If the gear depth was greater on the follow focus it might work by not having to snug it as tight.

[@xRaqzH]

the reason its vibrating is because of the weight, yes zhiyun can support the weight of the camera but when you titled in that way or certain angles your putting strain on the motors. I use this for weddings and other client work..im a professional photographer from Northern Ireland. hope this helps.

[@CheeseOnEverything]

Lol after watching this video a few times, I dunno why people are complaining about the lack of 120p in the new cameras. The slowmo PJ has achieved in 60p looks just as amazing as PM's slowmo in 120 on his 1dx2. Amazing work bud! Keep it up!

[@dexterwegh]

nice job man, thx for inspiring me to keep on making epic videos that could be as dope as yours! greets from belgium

[@beingarealballa]

Your clickbaits worked on me in the past, but not anymore. I just watch your vlog stuff because I wanna see awesome potato stuff

[@benjaminadamfilmmaking4654]

9:33 woah its the first time i see this followfocus in action, It looks so nice :o

[@DimplePoji]

Dude, I trust your videos more than those other KZbinrs that in recent months are talking about how good the Ronin is and yet all they mainly do are product reviews and no actual hours spent on filmmaking!!! Yah I know, this vid is talking about the crane 2...

[@Al69BfR]

Isn‘t the slow motion also „smoothing“ some of the unwanted movements? To really show the stabilization of the gimbal without an image stabilizating lens I would prefer videos at normal speed. 🙂

[@AdamBoroniec]

you're the first video person i've seen using that handle! I purchased it immediately!!! Now i can put my light on it!! PRAISE JEEBUS

[@eleones]

👍🏼 Great idea using the GoPro to shoot the gimbal. Cool effect.

[@TomaszBrodecki]

LEFTY

[@GaryTheGringo]

Dude your videos are fantastic! I always look forward to watching them when they come out.

[@ElectricPictureCo]

OK, I don't normally comment but: You owned my attention when you put the C100MKII on there....and I haven't watched the damn segment yet. You're a great V-Logger. Nice work. Dan.

[@thomasmoisson1515]

I love your jazzy dogs!

[@wcw23085]

the dog at the end is amazing

[@brandonricketts1762]

Didn't even notice the big dog had 3 legs until I looked closely and man is he/she a trooper and very inspiring watch. Oh Great Vid by the way currently considering getting a Crane 2 or V2 this helped a lot.

[@MeAndMyOpinions_OverYours]

Peeps, I have a 77d with a 35-135mm. And it would vibrate on medium. I set it to low and it worked. For being that tall with the battery grip, you have to unscrew the tilt axis until you can jerk the arm past the notch and bring the arm down to flush. Orrrrr....you can buy the gravity mount or extension they released. If you can manage a cage, you can mount the servo off that.

[@chheeesh1484]

what would you reccomend me getting for my gh5 and ninja V idk if this dual grip is that good are there better ones? i also have the servo but having same problems with getting loose

[@zaichkowsky]

If your gonna use a battery pack or 1dx on it, get the replacment extension plate and you wont have any issues. I shoot with a 1dx and a 24-70 2.8 and have never had issues with balancing or shake.

[@ericbulington2421]

sanding that chair was amazing... lucky man.

[@christopher_2412]

That moment when the clickbaity thumbnail isnt working because i immediately click on the video as soon as it was notified that it was uploaded..

[@5150shirts]

You should send this video to your Canadian buddy Matti so he can learn how to properly operate the Crane 2. Great video like always.

[@588ta]

That dog is amazing.,Love your channel.

[@Brad772006]

Nice gear! Love learning about these products.

[@kelvinjayaram1521]

Santa Monica seems like a KZbinrs paradise. There are so many things to film there

[@abiral4660]

Follow the damn train Potato Jet!

[@Sputz3]

I would take that crane set up apart. That’s looks too beautiful ❤️

[@BooooClips]

keep at it man! you'll be big soon!

[@ericpaulgoldie]

Absolutely genius "camera gimbal cam" aka the GoPro footage is epic!

[@EmoEmu]

I might be mistaken but the vibration dance sounds like what Panasonic described when they made the GH5s (with no stabilization). Your issue is due to your lens being stabilized. That introduces tiny vibrations that the gimbal then tries to correct which makes the lens IS try to fire up even more. You end up with a rig that vibrates as two forms of stabilization fight each other.

[@EmoEmu]

When it does that turn off the lens stabilization and see if it stops. And try running it without lens stabilization - you'll get no vibration fits if my theory is correct.

[@peichu4024]

Wow i cant believe you made the C200 work!

[@garrettschwindt7478]

The focus rail has a hole in it designed for an allen key to go through to give you more leverage to tighten it. But I have just started underslinging it like you mentioned which works for all my lenses.

[@SimeonKolev]

I had the same vibrations in some specific positions and rebalancing solved it. Also lowering the motor strenght helps sometimes. About the height - there is a special arm replacement for this gimbal that allows it to lower the camera even further. They made it after 1dxII users made complains. About the follow focus - there is a new model where this problem you were talking about is fixed :). There is only one issue with this gimbal that I can't fix so far and it is a bug maybe. When you lower the handle more than 45 degrees it stops controling the follow left-right and if you rotate the handle and start raising it back to vertical it freaks out. But yes I love the Crane 2, in my opinion it is the best one hand gimbal out there not only as a unit but also as a system because there are a lot of accessories out there for this. I can't wait to see what will come next from them.

[@luminari_productions]

Interesting so there are "two" follow focus models now?

[@DavidFarquharsonPhotography]

That vibration might be a huge problem for me if it happens randomly but besides that looks like it comes with tons of features m plus it’s smooth

[@Glen.Danielsen]

Gene, ur vids are of extreme excellence! (Btw, gimbal is vibrating because it’s excited to be working with you.)

[@helderophoto]

Select (high) on "motor" options in your gimbal, to stop shaking.

[@Emils2006]

Check out that GTA 5 city remade in real life :D

[@maruwaanmoses]

Are we just going to pretend your hair didn't magically change from one scene to the next? Super transition 😁

[@NimrodSarid]

Great visuals and very comprehensive!

[@alexandersamoceta]

Great vid! Loved the dog in the end!

[@p5ylance]

I knew i recognized that pier haha, miss that place

[@jersonona7961]

You have to use the the allen key to tighten the rod. That's why it has holes in it. Do that and you won't have to worry about it getting loose again.

[@Minorock93]

you should change the strength of the motors to prevent that vibrations, i had the same thing with my crane plus/a6300 , motors were set to strong then i lowered to medium and no more vibrations . Simply because the camera wasn't heavy enough to use all that motor strength

[@pvpphotoworks6445]

Yup.very good gimbal.I use it for almost a year now

[@grantkaufman2088]

Once again - a great video!! BTW Your dogs are really cute...

[@asterion2499]

Why do you always make simple things awesome in your videos?

[@michaelbruceallen3700]

First video I have seen of yours. You have great energy! Subscribing!

[@kallek771]

Btw that follow focus mounting "pipe" can be tighten with for ie screwdriver, that's why there's hole in middle of pipe. You get it so tight it can't opened by hand.

[@blazintommydblazintommyd4416]

That part isn't the problem, the problem is the mini-rod that attaches to the part to which you refer

Awesome video! Way better than the cringy videos on the Zhiyun channel.

[@CoveringFish]

Ronin s has no issues with the 1dx once u get it balanced. Other than doing that infinite roll. Also no vibration issue

[@waynelast1685]

Hey I wish everyone used that elevator music - I love it. Not annoying, just relaxing.

[@walijumaat2158]

Seal the thread of the rod by installing a proper size o-ring to the thread of the screw, then screw it in tighly after that you would not have a loose rod issue anymore i think..

[@Hankersonphotography]

nice video bro....your arsenal of equipment looksawesome.

[@premiumparis]

Two handle gimbal are so much easier to use for this kind of setup ! Too bad Feiyutech gave up their old designer, I loved being able to switch from one to two grip handle easilly... The A2000 is still a solid solution for that in my book, but obviously the new designs with 45 degree motor that show the monitor is pretty useful... ended up getting a 5th axis stabilizer that I can grab with two hands :)

[@MrBibiBear]

Yess amazing video! Everything right now is about the DJI Ronin S but loving the Crane 2 :)

[@wodddj]

You can try to make an external battery pack with 18650 batteries, and power everything with cables. Im now able to shoot raw video for over 1 hour on a 5D mark2, without battery change.

[@whatsupdate]

Skateboard + gimbal 🤯

[@BunkerMountain]

Hey! S/O to Spokane! Live right by there!

[@ShotByStyles]

The batteries are why I went with dji my ronin m and s last for days without charging I really think its preference on your choice of stabilizers. I have never had battery issues and I have had my ronin m for over three years maybe you just had a faulty battery.

[@JamieHines]

[@JohnLRice]

Welcome to WA state! ;-) I've been researching gimbals lately, for either a Canon M5 mirrorless or maybe C100 Mk2 but, I'm leaning towards just a small gimbal for the M5 since I worry that my old weak Mr. Burns arms couldn't handle a gimbaled C100 for more than 5 minutes! ;-) Thanks for the video!
