Overall, sulit purchase lalo na kung vlogger ka.
Ok sana pero hindi ganoon kalakas ang ilaw for night shots.
Kahit tumatakbo yung aso ko, smooth pa rin yung kuha.
Ang saya gamitin, kahit yung pusa ko na malikot na-track niya.
Solid build, parang premium. Medyo mahal pero worth it for content creators.
Pwede na for low light shots, pero wag i-expect sobrang bright.
Battery life is average, good for 2-3 hours lang sa heavy use.
Nagustuhan ko yung detachable remote, ang dali mag operate kahit solo lang.
Not the lightest gimbal, pero ok lang kasi solid build naman.
Extension rod helps sa group shots, kaso minsan mahirap i-balance.
Ok siya pang vlogging, pero medyo mabigat pag matagal hawak. AI tracking works fine naman.
Gumagana pero minsan naglo-lost track pag madaming tao sa background.
Ginamit ko sa recent travel namin, smooth talaga yung stabilization. Pero sana mas matagal battery.
Yung fill light maliit lang, hindi masyadong malakas sa madilim na lugar.
Worth it kasi complete package na may rod, light, at tripod.
Very helpful for beginners, pero medyo complicated yung app setup.
Sana ma-improve pa yung AI tracking sa next update, minsan laggy.
Solid build, parang premium. Medyo mahal pero worth it for content creators.
Stable shots kahit nag-squat at nag-push ups ako, smooth pa rin.
Overall, sulit purchase lalo na kung vlogger ka.
Super handy, maliit lang i-pack, hindi hassle bitbitin.
Useful yung tripod lalo na pag solo shooting sa bahay.
Cute yung detachable remote, pero madali mawala kung hindi careful.
Yung fill light maliit lang, hindi masyadong malakas sa madilim na lugar.
Compared sa ibang gimbals, mas sulit ito kasi may fill light at tripod na.
Ginamit ko sa isang event, maraming nagtatanong anong gamit ko kasi stable ng shots.
Ginamit ko sa recent travel namin, smooth talaga yung stabilization. Pero sana mas matagal battery.
Ok siya pang vlogging, pero medyo mabigat pag matagal hawak. AI tracking works fine naman.
Tripod included is nice, hindi na kailangan bumili separate.
