gimbals is it worthy?

fcnealvillangca · Jan 29, 2016

I'm actually not open to gimbals before so I made 2 glidecams than to buy them.
I am curious about the gimbals.

is it worthy to buy gimbals? some said that gimbals has an electric motor so will it make it so expensive?

fcnealvillangca :

A gimbal mount has nothing to do with motors, rather it's construction (where the axis of rotation is such a way as to have the sensor facing the center of a sphere rather than the outside)

There are some geared and motorized gimbal mounts, especially for telescopes, and yes, you're looking at >300 for decent motorized one (though they can go over 1k easily)

ah thanks do you think gimbals are better for long for long hours of shooting?

fcnealvillangca :

Again, depends on what you're shooting and how. If you have no issues with your current tripod head, why spend more money?

ah alright. I will actually shoot an hour footage by gliding.

More than a gimbal, you need a shock mounted camera for that . BH might have something, but most likely you'll need to see a specialist
