So helpful! I would love to know more about how you always film in landscape mode and how you translate that to portrait mode for things like social media… thanks so so much!

[@MamoAir]

Hello Andy, thanks for the comment. Glad the video helped. Reguarding your question, I usually film in landscape in 4k resolution, and I film my subject keeping the frame a bit wider. In that way I will be able to crop the frame into portrait during the video editing. Simple as that. Subscribe for more. Ciao

Hi Larry, thanks for stopping by, I hope the video helped. I do not have the app and gimbal with me at the moment so I cannot confirm, but yes, the circle should be for the focus and exposure.

recommand ZY cami, If you don't have particularly high shooting requirements, ZY cami is enough, and 85% functions are free. Stacam is more professional and has more functions, but you need to buy a membership

what mode you recommend for real estate videos tours.

FYI -If you press and hold the Function (Fn) Button on the side when you have the magnetic lights and built-in turned on, it will turn on ONLY the built-in light. If you press it when the lights are off, it will turn on ONLY the magnetic mount lights! Not sure why you would want this, but options are always a good thing.

[@TobywanKenobii]

I just bought this Gimbal. On my samsung Galaxy s20 this is the case: In the Stacam app I can choose between the regular lens and the ultrawide lens (and selfie lens) . The telephoto lens is not an option. When zooming it seems like the app does not switch between lenses but zooms digitally. On the other Zhiyun app - ZY Cami - only the regular lens and selfie lens are available. You can also use the phones regular camera app or another camera app. Then you can switch between lenses and use the one you want, but you have to do it from the phone screen. The gimbal can only controll start stop recording/take photo in my samsung camera app. The zoom wheel does not work there. All this might be different on another phone model, I have only tested it on my s20.

it would be dope if they added the phones male connector towards the motor, this way you can slide the phone into the socket for it to charge and as another way to connect to the gimbal
