Do THIS for better gimbal video (you don’t know this method)

I cant believe how insanely easy and to the point your videos are and are exactly what is lacking in most of the other youtube channels. Extremely informative, precise, well made and easy to watch. This channel needs to be among the top of the crop as far as this style of content is concerned... Thanks a lot Chris for all of these gems.

Chris this is literally the answer to my late night just last night.. I was trying different settings and I was under the impression that the deadband was needed to be set to low to be smoother and I thought of changing everything else except that!!! And now this video came out!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!

This is THE best gimbal tutorial!

Love how well you explained this video ! Thank youu

The deadband settings are key, especially for a more organic and less mechanical feel ... something BIG I don't hear many people talking about with gimbals is don't rely 100% on the machine! Example, when panning, if you don't want the shot to stop with a MECHANICAL feel, then with your arm/hand/body gradually let it fade to a stop. Basically if you want to pan smoothly to 24 inches to your right, then around 20 inches to your right, start to slow down your physical movement so it eases into 24 inch to the right target, maybe even floating a bit past 24 inches. This is a skill to work with the gimbal. Not as tough as a steadicam, but was a huge life changer for me when I realized this approach for making specific gimbal shots feel more organic. It's the same way when braking with a car and pushing the brake pedal .... you can fade into a stop, or you can jam on the brakes and come to a sudden stop. And all that is affected by the sensitivity of the brakes (deadband).

I literally just got mine and I’ve been trying to figure this mess out and you’re honestly the first one to mention this so i appreciate it bro!

Pure gold!I see so many videos but there’s always more to learn, thank you sir!

Thanks for the awesome tips! That's exactly what i need for more cinematic footage 🙏

thank you omg . so concise . and short and not long winded . excellent.

Just in time for the weekend! Thanks Chris!

A big help! Straight to the point and my gimbal is set up much much better now. Thank you!

Thank you! This is very helpful. I mainly film handheld. Being a new RS3 pro user this definitely gives me a better understanding of those settings, and how they effect movement.

I instantly got better footage, thank you so much for delivering information right to the point without too much fluff. I appreciate it so much.

Thanks Chris for posting this video, I found it VERY helpful and is just that little "secret sauce" gimbal set up that I think takes the RS3 to the next level. Very happy with these settings.

Thank you very much for this awesome tip. I didnt knew about this, very helpful for tiniest details that I was always strugling to capture like bride and groom rings closeup. Can't wait to put this on practice!😍

Super helpful video and appreciate your channel; thanks for sharing your tips for Sony cams as well!

Thanks, Chris. I will increase the deadband on my RS2 and try it out. Great video. And yes, I already knew what deadband is, just not in the context of gimbal tuning!

That's super helpful. Thank you Chris!

Thanks for a clear and concise guide :)

This was the exact subject I was trying to find info on! Commenting for thanks!
