Pocket Sized: PowerVision S1 Phone Gimbal Stabilizer Review
PowerVision S1 at Amazon: amzn.to/3TepZ6r (No Phone Mount)
This is my review of the PowerVision S1 gimbal stabilizer for phones: a full-featured gimbal that fits in my pocket. PowerVision sent this to me for review, but they did not (and will not) pay me, they have had no input or oversight. This is all my own opinion.

Bought this gizmo at a deep discount at a photo convention many years ago and never used it. Decided to pull it out and try it today. I don't think Tether tools even makes it anymore. There was no information on their website to explain this step by step like you did. Videos inoperative. Links dead. I was getting frustrated. Your video was still a little different from my set up, but with this video, I was able to figure it out! So, you were right! It did help out someone someday (even 8 years after you posted!) Thank you. PS I ordered an actual tether cable. I think that might work better for my projects. ;-)
Hey, Matthew. Nicely put together and presented video. Thanks, Man
Thank you ! I hope you can help me. I have a disk that was formatted, I used lots of recovery software. It will recover the photos and videos with the exact name, size and folders, but unfortunately it will show it as corrupted file, I am sure I didn’t write anything on the disk after formatting, could you pleas assist me?
Great review, I was in between this and sigma 18 50 but those extra 20mm makes differwnce to me, thanks for make it clear!
The camera is Sony A6600, which focuses on humanistic photography. Please recommend Sony 70-300 or 70-350 or Tamron 70-180 70-300 and other lenses for future use when upgrading to full frame cameras. Thank you

I see a lot a jitters and even some wobbles in your sample footage. Doesn't look very stable.
Extremely helpful thank you😊
As a photographer, I’ve tried Stellar, and Recoverit for data recovery. I found Stellar Data Recovery to be the most reliable and easy to use. It effectively restored my lost photos and files, making it my top recommendation for quick and dependable recovery.
What camera did you use in India? And it was the Sony lens?
Wow. Thank you, Matthew Gore! That was a very well put together video. Thorough and thoughtful research and excellent presentation.
Doing this in 2024! Will update final cost and any replacements I used, so far coming out to $110. Thank you so much!
You nailed it. Thanks for the excellent review.
Hey Matthew - On your full website review (and at 4:20 in the video), you mentioned, "The only time that I lost focus, frequently, was when I was tracking a player and zooming the lens at the same time…" ^ Seems like the lens isn't parfocal; I'm experiencing the same thing with the Tamron 35-150mm my Z9. How do you shoot with this limitation when action rapidly comes toward you? Any other lenses you prefer instead?
my tamron was a bit tilted, shimming at the mount helped. then i had to swing and tilt the front group a little, and now it absolutely smokes the rental canon 70-200 i had a chance to compare it to.
Excellent attempt to compare all four programs I mean recovery software. Thanks a lot.🙏
Hi Matt, I appreciate these comparisons that you have done. I recently purchased a Canon 6D and have purchased the Tamron 45mm f1.8 and the Tamron 100-400. I am shopping on a budget, but quality images are very important to me. My other camera is a Leica X Vario, that I only purchased for the lens performance...and definitely not the cameras handling performance. It is used as my snapshot, take it anywhere device. Cheers from Victoria. PS...I chuckled at your comment of a sunny day in Seattle.
Thank You 🙂
Any long term updates on the weather/dust sealing on this lens?
I appreciate you detailed review and thoughts.
Thank`s for your great job from 2024

Ciao, tutto bello, peccato che non sia più possibile scaricare la app vision+S1 da App Store. Inutilizzabile! Eppure su Amazon ancora è in vendita! Hai info su come risolvere il problema? Grazie
Wow! it's 9 years later and you blow most lens review channels out of the water. This was a breath of fresh air, most lens reviews are just weekend cheer leaders for what ever lens they found on ebay recently that they can write a review about. I swear you could put a trash kit lens from the 2010 in front of them and they would celebrate it and pull buzz words out their ass like film-like and "it has character".
the main quality of the lens is not necessarily sharpness but quality of the bokeh for portraits which I cannot find here, both at print and display level nobody notices sharpness but bokeh indeed
Amazing review 🎉
Very well done and well explained - Thank you!!
Hi! I have a canon r8 and am currently looking for an affordable lens in the focal range of 24-70 or 24-105. I'm willing to buy used and everything under ~800€ is okay. Which lens would you recommend? I already have an ef-rf adapter, so the ef mount is definitely a possibility. I mainly want a really nice and sharp lens, preferably with a fixed aperture of 2.8 (or 4). But there is 20 years of lenses to work through and I kinda lost track of which one is still good to todays standard, yet affordable.
Great. Thanks
just thinking about buying diskdrill because Somona corrupted all my 2 back up ext hdds in 2 days exactly when first was formated and wanted to copy from working one and in that time of coppying somona disconnected the working one with data and corrupted it so one was formatted and the second one was not acessable.... you can imagine the horror. 2 days 2 hdds out of order from connecting to new mac M2 with all raw family photos.
Still enjoying my tamron 27-40 VC! In the lab, Canon might be a bit sharper. In real life though, the VC in the tamron is what gives it the edge. The Canon is theoretically shrper (in the lab), in real world VC matters more
Excellent video!
this is incredibly helpful 🙏🏻 thank you so much
Very good. Hermano, from Brazil.
If you shoot video, on a tripod, the selection is obvious. Wanna know why? www.youtube.com/@CarloFerraro
raw file links?
I have the Tamron. It's a pretty good lens. If is, of course, a walking compromise but that's ok. It's a travel lens and I pair it with my A7C for a lightweight super zoom. It goes well with my 28-70 lens.
Fantastic review! I appreciate the methodical and high level detail of your review! Subscribed!
Nice video
Late reaction.... But I notice the Tamron is less wide than the Canon in the Space Needle shots. Is the Tamron really 35mm or maybe 36....37...etc.?
One is an artistic lens with tons of characters and the other one is sharp lens for landscape you shoot at 5.6-9f
Exactly my jump
Just got the 6400
Perfect review
Hellow, maybe a dumb question.. but im new in this :D So the Tamron has a f/2.8.. ONLY f2.8 or can you go higher.. to f8.0 or so? o:
Great video. Thank you! Is it possible to remove electrical wires from a video clip. Would I have to use the clone tool to brush them out frame by frame? I have some perfect drone footage but the wires get in the frame mid way through the clip. Thanks in advance
Beautiful photos and a pretty complete review, thank you!
I got 6 points without enlarging the picture. I have both lenses at the same time, but it hasn't been used for long.
this video was awesome so thorough you killed it now we just need your favorite repair software
