Hi - any opinions / thoughts on the Feiyutech AK2000S gimbal?
for what purpose do you intend to use it?
My reason for asking is that my wife bought a gimbal for her iPhone and successfully baptised it during covid on a cold Christmas lights show.
It was excellent for keeping the camera steady walking on uneven ground provided she adopted a strange crouched walk that took 24hours for the back to recover. She was able to do wonderful side on tracking shots. It’s not been used since. Why?
Probably too much of a fag to cart about for the happenstance opportunity for a moving camera video. And there’s the rub, so to speak….
I’ve banged on for years about her panning and zooming ….”it’s a moving subject…not a moving camera”. She makes excellent videos using traditional static camera techniques albeit with a minute amount of panning. Making a whole movie of a moving camera and moving subject just makes me giddy.
So it depends on how you intend to use it, imho.
