    Man, you have no idea how helpful this is to me right now. I’ve just recently bought all my own personal camera gear for the first time and a gimbal is the last thing I need. I knew DJI and Zhiyun were both great brands for this but I didn’t know what to choose. Both are very pricey so I needed to make the right decision. A mentor of mine recommends all DJI products (but he has the M, not the S) so I was starting to lean toward DJI... this confirmed it for me. THANK YOU :)

    • @dietwedge
      @dietwedge Před 5 lety +13

      mike deen nope. But it’s a solid, machined piece of gear. It’s a lot more solid than the Crane, which I’ve now been able to get hands on as well. With the addition of the handle (which can be taken off if you chose...you can’t with the Crane), it’s all that I had hoped the C3 would be.
      The software is always the kicker for me, on these purchases and DJI whoops everyone’s butt in that department.

    Love this video!! I was saving some bucks for a “flycam”...but all hell broke loose when you mentioned the 499 for the DJI. Really good head to head. I feel de DJI is the one to get. More overall performance and a more natural ergonomics. These two really makes you shift away from flycams...

    Dude, I’m getting ready to buy a motorized gimbal, I have been looking and comparing for some time...I had picked the Ronin-S mainly due to price, I believe I saw it on Amazon for like $550 but then I saw the Crane-3 and liked how it looks and its “low-mode” feature.....your comment about your arms getting tired quicker with the Crane-3 plus battery life...that’s crucial, I don’t think people realize how much that matters....this shit was on point and I thank you for it....Ronin-S for me.

    Hi Parker, great video, always enjoyed and liked how clear and straight informative your amazing videos are. Just one side note, me and my friend in China we also reviewed the Crane 3 LAB and managed to attach a RED without any counter weights or difficult riggings. It works amazing, and 360 roll even works without any hassle. You should try it too with your RED :D. It might be a great alternative for you instead of the Movi for simpler quicker shoots. For more details feel free to contact. Have a nice day

    Thanks for the video. I'm sticking with my Ronin S then. I thought some of the features on the Crane 3 would be better, but it seems Crane 3 will cause faster fatigue and I like the longer battery life on my Ronin S. Many shoots I end up spending 3/4 of the battery and at that point, the voltage sag doesn't power the motor enough. Definitely need the battery life for longer shoots.

    Great Video Man! I'm thinkin about goin with Crane 3. I used the Crane 2 on a short Film in L.A. a few month back and I see where the Crane 3 addresses the few issues I had with it. My Sony A7 iii and sigma 16mm is much lighter than the setup in the video so I'm sure that will have it's pros as well. I'm kinda new to the larger gimbal game. The first one I had was the DJI Osmo and did a phenomenal Job with image stabilzation.

  • @SuperMarioDiagnostics
    @SuperMarioDiagnostics Před 4 lety +7

    Although I can appreciate what you did encounter. The tracking feature was completely overlooked. The fact that the crane 3 lab can track from any hdmi input sets it apart from all the others. Which is kind of a big deal when it comes to gimbals as its the first gimbal to track from any camera or camcorder from it's hdmi output.

    Wow... this was really, really a great review. Well done. I am currently in the market for a real tripod and fluid head ( I do not want a Manfrotto) and came across this crane 3. I don't own any gimbals so since I'm just not finding a set of decent sticks and a fluid head for $800 I thought maybe adding this to my tool kit.
    But I really do need a good fluid head. What I have now i just can't live with anymore.

  • @steadilsr
    @steadilsr Před 4 lety

    Parker, Great comparison of Zhiyun Crane 3 and Ronin S. One thing as as former Steadicam owner /op: I would never put my gear into the wind stream!
    Its always possible to hang out comfortably in the rear of an SUV with lift gate open, strapped in for safety, and follow your subject or even shoot from the side. A sliding door minivan offers more comfort and safety for those side of the driver shots if needed.
    I m considering the Zhiyun Weebil only because I m retired and just need a good gimbal for RE video work and creative stuff! thanks for great video!!

    Great comparison Parker... I so agree with you about the awkwardness of the Crane 3 when it comes time to pick it up and fold the tripod and even more so, time to unfold the tripod and put it down. And you are right it is SUPER heavy to yield. But the biggest issues i ran into was actually making the functions work with my A7iii. None of the AV / TV / ISO worked in filming mode. They worked in photo mode (M) only, but I could not trigger filming video while in this mode. I really don''t get it. the whole purpose of a gimbal is to stabilize VIDEO. Why would I need to use it for photo? Zhiyun website tutorial shows setting up the gimbal in M mode and said to use M mode to film. I don't think so LOL. I could not get the app to connect to the crane either, no matter what I tried. The record button did work in filming mode BUT there was a serious lag everytime you pressed the button, both to start and to end filming. If shooting a wedding for example, that kind of lag might be the difference between capturing a candid moment and missing it. I also had issues with external monitor, in some settings it would go black. One more thing: attaching an external monitor was a problem too. It seemed to always be in the way and would loosen up due to simple gravity as the holes are located on the sides. Compared to my current gimbal where I have side bar and monitor mounts directly above the handles, never any problem. Anyway, that's wy i am returning my crane today :( and I was so excited to get it, so the disappointment is even worse.
