Has been as low as $133 previously on OzBargain.

Haven't used this personally, but have been doing a lot of research on gimbals lately and Zhiyun has a good reputation.

Original 20% off Selected Stores on eBay Deal Post

Use the Zhiyun-Tech Smooth-Q gimbal stabilizer to capture smooth handheld footage with your smartphone. This gimbal features a maximum load capacity of 7.8 ounces, meaning it can handle heavier smartphones such as the iPhone 7 Plus or accessories such as add-on lenses. Balancing is done with one button controlling the roll axis. The Smooth-Q has face-tracking, panoramic, and time-lapse modes, and, for you vloggers out there, it switches quickly into vertical mode. The downloadable ZY Play app can be used to remotely control your smartphone and to upgrade the gimbal's firmware.

The Smooth-Q's interface features a 4-way joystick, power and mode buttons, and a zoom control switch. You also have the choice of using the ZY Play App for full control of the gimbal. The Smooth-Q offers 320° rotation along the pan, tilt, and roll axes. This stabilizer's internal battery provides up to an impressive 12 hours of run time. The Smooth-Q has a 1/4"-20 mounting thread for use a monopod, tripod, or other support.

    Anyone know whether these are gopro compatible somehow?

      Not really, you'd be looking at the Zhiyun Rider M for something that is mountable to GoPro attachments, or the Zhiyun Z1 Evolution for a handheld gimbal. Both come with their pros and cons.

      Obviously there are other brands out there as well, such as Feiyu.

      Here is a deal I just posted:

      I got a go pro plate with mine, something like this http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Adapter-Mount-Plate-for-GoPro-4-3…

      • adrianhughes1998 on 12/09/2017 - 17:31

        If you want to see the screen get a plate.

        If you don't then rotate the gimbal to portrait and it will hold the GoPro. I did it with my action camera and it holds it fine.

      • cameldownunder on 12/09/2017 - 17:32

        If you have a session, it's going hard to find a plate. I had a friend who printed one for me.

  • Lewdannie on 12/09/2017 - 16:10

    Heads up, doesn't work with an iPhone 7 Plus with a case on

      Yes it does, no problem with slim cases that I've tested

      • Lewdannie on 12/09/2017 - 18:02

        I tried with an Apple leather care, pretty slim. No go

        • kacak on 12/09/2017 - 18:06

          In what way does it not work? It definitely fits in the clamp and did you adjust the horizontal knob so it sits balanced before turning the gimbal on?

        • hijack on 13/09/2017 - 08:30

          @kacak: wonder is it compatible with 7 plus? 'cause with other gimbal it will conflict with the optic stabiliser inside the 7 plus, so the footage is not smooth

        • kacak on 13/09/2017 - 08:59

          @hijack:
          It works fine, no issues that I can see. There are various videos on YouTube that you can see.

  • Jazza2400 on 12/09/2017 - 16:23

    I work on a construction site and have always wanted to mount a 360 degree camera to a car and drive through the job site, however is bumpy as all hell and needing a stabilizer has halted me from this idea. This opens a can of worms for me.

    Would this be suitable to mount to a car? I'll look at their catalogue now :)

      Im sure you can get a suction mount to a SLR, but its a 3 axis not a 4axis, so it will not help much with bumps. You can mod it to make it 4axis, look it up on youtube

      The Smooth-Q has a 1/4-20" screw thread on the handle so you could attach it to a mount but I'd be a bit concerned about the phone flying out of the clamp on a bumpy car ride (even though the springs are pretty stiff).

  • wjb on 12/09/2017 - 16:34

    Thinking of getting this to use with my GoPro.
    Does it really take 3-7 weeks to deliver?

    Also could someone recommend a reasonable external microphone to be used with GoPro Hero 4 silver?

    • Nuggets on 12/09/2017 - 18:00

      Note you'll need an adapter to make your gopro work with this gimbal.

  • JSCLiasonNeo on 12/09/2017 - 16:46

    works with my S7 edge with a case on it
