![]() Plus, the tripod legs can be splayed to enable the Weebill-S to stand upright.Īs well as providing a convenient and safe way to put the gimbal down, the tripod is useful for when you want to control the gimbal remotely using Zhiyun’s free ZY Play app. With the tripod/grip on the bottom of the gimbal, you have an extended grip so there’s room for both of your hands. On the plus side, there are threads in both ends of the L to attach the supplied tripod which doubles up as a handle extension. Like the Weebill Lab, the Weebill-S has an upside-down L-shaped body or handle. It’s also preferable for long shoots, but of course, it’s not designed to work with big cameras such as the Canon EOS-1D X Mark III or the Blackmagic Design Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro like the Crane 2S. The tilt axis lock is the main culprit and sometimes it’s seemed stuck fast but I’ve always managed to resolve the problem by jiggling the camera little in the tilt plan while pushing the lock switch.Īt 926g without the tripod and batteries, the Weebill-S is about half the weight of the Zhiyun Crane 2S, which makes it considerably more attractive to carry on the off-chance that you might want to use it. I have had a few issues with the axis locks sometimes being tricky to unlock. The body itself is a little plasticky, but its okay. The gimbal arms and motor surrounds are made from metal and feel very strong. On the whole, the build quality of the Zhiyun Weebill-S is very good, especially taking the price into consideration. In the image below, the Weebill-S is in Pan Follow mode. The selected mode is show on the small screen on the gimbal handle/body. This is useful for following quick movements or creating interesting transitions. Go mode (GO): The roll motor is locked, and the tilt and pan motors quickly follow the rotation of the handle. ![]() Push the joystick to the left or right to control the rotation of the pan axis to create footage that spins. Vortex mode (V): The tilt axis motor rotates upward by 90°, and the tilt, roll and pan motors follow the rotation of the handle. Point of View mode (POV): All three motors move when the handle is rotated so the camera follows the movement of the handle. ![]() Push the joystick up or down to change the tilt angle and left or right to shift the camera’s horizontal orientation. Lock mode (L): All three motor angles are locked, and the camera will not move with the rotation of the handle. ![]() The joystick is pushed up or down to change the roll angle. This is useful eliminating vertical movement.įollowing mode (F): The roll axis motor is locked, and the tilt axis and pan axis motors follow the rotation of the handle. Use the joystick to control the tilt (up and down) axis angle, and push it to the left or right to control the pan angle. Pan Follow mode (PF): The tilt and roll motors are locked and the camera rotates with the handle while panning horizontally. Their operation is governed by the selected gimbal mode and any pressure applied to the joystick on the handle of the gimbal. These motors can be used to compensate for accidental movement and to create intentional movement of the camera. ![]()
