        The claws have been getting bad reviews. Mediocre specs, poor warranty service, and doesn't hold an edge without frequent sharpening. Narwhal horn has superior penetration and the blubber enhances heat retention.

      You are right, I am using Google pixel 4a 5g and don't need any of these stability stick. Basically when I turn on camera it suggests to correct the angle and I find very easy

    • splitatom on 08/01/2021 - 23:58

      Most cameras these days on high end phones have a type of image stabilisation, either optical in the sensor itself or through digital image stabilising or both. Downside with digital stabilisation is the image is generally cropped, making the image look more zoomed in.
      These gimbals still have their place with phones as the image stabilisation is still not as good as the gimbals yet, except for gopro which has excellent digital image stabilisation

      • mrau on 09/01/2021 - 10:46
        +1

        Mechanical vs digital stabilisation. Why even try to compare? Digital merely stimulates stabilisation.

        • MasterScythe on 11/01/2021 - 19:57
          +1

          Not exactly, it crops the sensor, so its comparable; the information chosen to be kept does literally shift within the sensors field of view.

          This is why a gopro field of view increases when you turn stabilization off.

          Due to the limits of gyroscopic sensors, its usually just a little bit slow though, so anywhere with a longer exposure (like low light) risks smudging or light trails.

          Thats where mechanical comes into its own.

          To say its simulating stabilization is incorrect, the 'focus frame' moves within the full sensors view.

          It's not a post processing trick or such, it's done on the fly.

          Its real stabilization, just current electronic limitations mean it falls behind mechanical for now.

          I love gimbals for that reason. Night time shots without blur on tiny sensors; amazing.

  • Qbagger on 08/01/2021 - 11:51

    To anyone who has one of these- any idea if you can attach a GoPro with confidence?

    • enthusiast on 08/01/2021 - 11:52
      +3

      If you've got a GoPro Hero 8 Black or Hero 9 you wouldn't need to - their in-built stabilisation is brilliant!!

      • Qbagger on 08/01/2021 - 11:54

        Got a 6 :(

        • cnut on 08/01/2021 - 12:56

          Still pretty brilliant. But no reason this shouldn't work, though you may need an adapter.

          • Qbagger on 08/01/2021 - 13:00

            @cnut: Yeah I'm trying to avoid adapters of possible. Osmo 3 gimbal + adapter getting expensive.

            • cnut on 08/01/2021 - 13:03

              @Qbagger: By the looks of it, you should be able to use a GoPro no problem. Grab one and return if it doesn't. Kmart are pretty easy with that sort of stuff. If anything I can imagine it holds it better than a phone as there's more surface area on the sides of a GoPro.

      • Quarn on 08/01/2021 - 13:15

        There is a big difference between image stabilisation and gimballing. A camera is in a fixed orientation unless moved manually by something, image stabilisation is just cropping the field of view to remove minor movements.

      • countmein on 08/01/2021 - 16:47

        got Hero 7 Black last time, they keep saying that which makes sense otherwise why upgrade

        I still get trails from lights at night.

        Gimbal and EIS off fixes that.

    • zennow on 08/01/2021 - 13:21

      It shouldn't need any adapters. Looks like it'll go right in fine.

    • netbies on 08/01/2021 - 13:59

      You will need a mount for the Gopro to fit nicely onto the Gimbal. The Gopro size is too small to fit in some of these gimbals and sometimes may not even be heavy enough to balance.

      Something like this https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Handheld-Gimbal-Stabilizer-Mount…. I was using something similar with my Hero 4.

    Just a quick note on this one, the max weight of the smartphone is 180g~ for it to work. I had an iphone xs MAX and that was 200g.. just tilted to one side no balance hahah!

    • Gehirn on 10/01/2021 - 14:44

      Manual says it is compatible with 110-230g.

      • CVonC on 10/01/2021 - 20:42

        Manual can say one thing but in practice, as willyw0nka experienced, it's not true.

        • Gehirn on 11/01/2021 - 13:34

          My phone is 202g though. Perhaps they didn't use the adjustment knob, or even turn it on.

              @CVonC: Yeh I think what Gehirn says, need to slide the arm out to balance it while off first.

    • bamzero on 12/01/2021 - 17:19
      +1

      My phone with case is 223g. I thought I had a faulty gimbal the first time I tried it. Turns out I just hadn't balanced the phone first, need to slide the arm out, touchy to balance but worked ok once I did.

      Without the case (17?g) the gimbal could overcome the imbalance, but wasn't strong enough at the upper weight limit.

  • [Deactivated] on 08/01/2021 - 20:48

    i got a DJI combo during boxing day for about $125 on amazon, honestly i thought it is good to make youtube/tiktok videos but don't seem to be for that purpose. I thought i could follow a subject from room to room, and it would hold steady, or while trying to create a smooth videos of following someone. You simply cannot hold focus if there is too much movement, yea it is probably common knowledge, but i didn't know :/

    It is probably worth for outdoor videos.

    People who buy a smartphone gimbal, what do you use it for? My DJI gimbal is looking for an use-case now. thinking if i should just return to amazon.

    Anyone suggest cool ways you could use a gimbal if you are not keen on taking stunning travel videos? Don't see myself traveling much in 2021

    • Jimothy Wongingtons on 08/01/2021 - 23:21

      not sure which combo you mean exactly but i have an old Zhiyun smooth Q and used it with iphone 7 plus and it did pretty okay for what it was.
      However even gopro 7 black hypersmooth is way smoother imo.

      Tbh it has been a while since i used my smooth Q, but i remember I had to turn off the phone's inbuilt stabilisation as it would clash.

      • [Deactivated] on 09/01/2021 - 05:25

      I also enjoy local walking tracks and mountain trail climbing.

      Also a gimbal, along with EIS, really makes handheld private bedroom movies jump up in quality, massively.

      probably too late to explain now. if the shop you would like to click and collect showing in stock. they realised there isnt any stock while processing your order, they will source from other shop and ship it for you free of charged. this is my understanding.

    Does anyone have any clue as to which android app is this Gimbal compatible with. I just received this Gimbal and I must say I am highly disappointed that the manual is just shoddily written and there is no app support. This should have been sold for 10$.

    • bamzero on 15/01/2021 - 08:23

      You connect it via Bluetooth and the button triggers a Volume press to activate the shutter on your phone. Not sure what you'd need an app for?

      • mynameisborat on 15/01/2021 - 09:27

        The folow an object feature can be done only using an app.

        • Gehirn on 15/01/2021 - 14:25

          Or the joystick, or further with your legs.

          • mynameisborat on 15/01/2021 - 14:39

            @Gehirn: If I was supposed to do it with the joystick or using my legs, then it should have been explicitly mentioned on the Kmart website. Most Chinese unknown brands and DJI has the follow feature using the app.

            • Gehirn on 15/01/2021 - 14:56

              @mynameisborat: Usually items state their features on the box, not what they lack.

              It's your fault for assuming it has these extra features when there's no indication of them.

              You're not buying a DJI, it's a $49 rebranded gimbal that is very well received on AliExpress and elsewhere.
              https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001442664351.html

              Would love to see these cheap gimbals with object tracking you say are out there, or the $10 similar ones to this as you suggest it's worth.

              • mynameisborat on 15/01/2021 - 15:32

                @Gehirn: DJI doesn't mention on the box that the follow feature is using the app

                @Gehirn: Moreover, thanks for link. In the description section of the link that you provided clearly mentions "Note: H4 does not support APP. Only supports Bluetooth connection!" . Now that's exactly what should have been written on the Kmart's page. It would have saved the hassle of ordering and returning it.

          Ah ok, gotcha…

          I guess we have different ideas of what $50 would buy. I think it's a fair buy at this price for what it is. $10 will barely buy you a half decent tripod…

          Looks like this S5B is what you're after then.
