In order to balance this I had to pull the swinging bar out so much that it hit the bottom of the stick platform, limiting my range of motion. Its easy to balance and works great as far as stabilization but its just not built for DSLRs despite the 57 pound limit.

Good product, Best price Thank you

Tre gimbal is OK. It provides smooth footage, but it suffers from a lot of flaws too. Mainly The app for android works, … well, … not so smooth. When changing some settings, I see no difference between the change and after. There is no indication that the changes have been applied. Support for Canon. Is it available Will it bee How soon There are no useful information on the internet regarding support and manuals. If you want to use some advanced features, they are not intuitive and hard to achieve. Most of all, it is hard to balance in many setups. Light camera and heavy lens NO Light camera and heavy phone on top Canon 77D, Canon 24mm pancake, Samsung galaxy S7 NO …. the arms and parts are not large enough to balance anything bigger. Maybe it can handle something heavier, but it has to be light lens and heavy body.So. It is a great gimbal and quality of motion is great. There are a lots of videos about how great it is. But I am a little bit disappointed that I cannot balance by Canon 77D with sigma A 1835mm f1.8 on it. So I find the payload little bit misleading.

The Crane Plus is a compact, versatile and eyeopening tool that evolves deliverables across a broader range of capture systems.Video unboxing overview athttpsyoutu.begQWKijfLueA

This crane plus is much better than the crane v2 which I own briefly. It seems that Zhiyuns app does not support v2 as well as the plus. If there is any doubt, get the crane plus. I use it with Sony a6500 with various different lens and so far so good and easy to balance between lens. It would be nice if the gimbal itself can be smaller.
Will –
This gimbal works very well, however, the app which enables many of the features such as the waypoint feature does not fully work with my new Note 9. I reached out to Zhiyun asking if they were working on it or had a timeline and all they had to say back to me was, Sorry your phone doesnt work.The fact that I couldnt even get the app to stay stable, the fact they dont seem to have any time frame for when you might expect updated support, and the fact it costs so much when I can get similar functions out of something cheap like a DJI Osmo Mobile granted, I have to use my phone as the actual camera in that case, I just couldnt justify keeping this thing.After trying for a couple weeks to work this problem out on my own and with Zhiyun, I decided to return it. Its got a nice price point and nice feature set… but the compatibility updates seem to be lacking, especially for newer Samsung phones.

At the price paid 307 Id say this represents excellent value. Within just a few moments of setup which does take a while, but Im sure Ill get quicker I had the basic technique for getting nice smooth footage. Ive yet to really put this gimbal thru its paces, or to try out some of the modes, but early indications are that this is money very well spent. Handles a Fuji XT2 and 1655mm lens with ease.
Mfryworld –
The gimbals learning curve is very steep. After using it on two pro engagements and failing to get it to work for the sessions. I brought someone to setup and maintain it. Still failed and needed to be reset several times. To much stress. Switched to a Osmo Plus and have zero issues. Hope DJI undated the OSMO plus or makes a one inch sensor Osmo pocket.
John –
The camera I used for this lens was the Lumix G7 . So that and the lens was way below the maximum weight, But that did not keep the gimbal from making grinding noises that could be picked up on my audio which I recorded seperatly I finally tried to do an upgrade, but now the head moves on its own and when you attempt to use the joystick the camera moves in the opposite direction.
Ezell –
Great gimbal. Need to work with a jitter which is a symptom of the auto balancing but its workable and is a dream. This product also comes with a case and stand. Something I wasnt sure came with it based on the description.
Joan –
Have spent hours attempting to balance a Sony A6000 on this thing the moving pieces are very stiff making it difficult to make the minute moves one needs to balance the camera lens. Maybe with time and practice I will learn to love it. but not feeling it at the moment.
MATT –
Perfect for the run and gun. Comes with the tripod at the bottom which is super helpful. The only issue I have is that the sony connecting cable covers the hdmi out for the sony a6500.Other than that it works beautifully
Robert –
Once a camera has been balanced on the gimbal and that does take a bit of time the results are fantastic. A quickrelease plate makes a great accessory.
Anonymous –
No problems, everything is working great but mainly doing this review for the chance to win the prize to write a review. So far im liking Adorama.
arhon123 –
Having the Smooth Q, I was expecting high performance and a good quality product. And this device did not let me down. As I have the Canon 200d, my Sigma Art lens weighs more than my camera, so fairy tricky to balance I would have thought. Once I mastered the basic principles of balancing, I found it can be setup less than 2mins. Very well made, premium feeling product. Would recommend.
Maruss –
Very easy to set up and use. Well balanced and smooth. Works excellent.
Zack –
Used a cheap stabilizer for a while before taking the leap for a motorized one. Really impressed so far. Hope to keep using and getting better with it.
Eagleeyevisions –
Ive been using this gimbal for about 2 months and my shots looks that much nicer. Im able to easily get Cinematic video with the Crane Plus.
paul –
Bought as a Christmas present think grandson will be over the moon with it
Satheesh –
It is very hard to balance in a Nikon D750 DSLR with 2470 mm Lens . Waste of Money , It only work with Sony or Panasonic , I returened the item for a refund
RICHARD –
Just ordered another one. Cant wait to use heavier lenses with the Crane 2. Had the original Crane 1 and the gimbal was really good for my Sony A7S2 and various lenses. Makes moving shots look very good. Would definitely recommend. Made last minute unplanned promotional video for my wife S.Marlo Aint Got Forever. Went around neighborhood and shot in any location we could for 1 12 hrs max. My wife edited the same day and released the video soon after.. 8hr total project. The moving shots turned out pretty good. Check out the video of the completed video. Thanks Adorama.
Oleksandr –
Gimbal was delivered in time. All super
Tony –
Good for small ripe of cameras and cellphones not hold to much weight
Christopher –
Excellent service and great price. Thank you.
ARISTOMENIS –
That gimbal really worth the money All functions works smooth like a pro system Thanks EGLOBAL Amazing price…
ANTHONY –
I have been able to use this a handful of times now and can say it does a pretty good job for what I need it to. I am using bigger canon lenses and it does an alright job. You can tell it is starting to push the weight and I get it. When I use my wide angle it does a fine job. I do not use the connecting plug to my GH5 because it seemed to limit the rotation of the camera and really just became a pain. So works great with my wide angle but cant handle much more than that. Decently stable. Again, gets the jobs done and clients are happy.
flyingmower –
This is a great Gimbal with a good payload, but it can get heavy very quickly. This can be made better with the add on stabilizer handle which works great and keeps it stable too. Highly recommended if you are looking for a good gimbal at a good price. The WeeLab is great too, but slot more money. I also have the smooth Q that is also great for mobile phone on GoPro.
Francisco –
Excellent eGlobalCentral Service. My purchase arrived soon and in perfect condition. The Zhiyun Crane Plus is a good stabilizer and easy to calibrate.
tomiqhs –
I got a perfect solution for stabilization my DSLR machine. I really love each moment I use it. It stabilizes my Canon DSLR photomachine perfectly. The controls are making the crane more easy to use, and during running it gives me back a constant picture. I really love it.
matke8801 –
Came exactly as described. Great value. Has great features
BB –
Love it. Works as advertised. Was able to handle a 5 lb three camera setup that was top heavy with the help of counterweights.
Michal –
Ordered 2.7.2018, delivered today, 10.7.2018. After FW update, I am so happy with it. Its absolutely great. The price is also superb. Thank You so much
James –
I purchased the Crane for my Canon 80D. The product is grea and provides some stunning free motion shots. Its motors are a little weak when transitioning between axes but would now consider the premium Crane 23.
Miles –
The crane plus is a really good piece of kit. Took a while to balance the camera, but now that I know what Im doing I think it will be a lot quicker in future. Ive just got to work out the easiest way to carry it around when Im not using it.In terms of eglobalcentral. This was my first purchase with them and it was absolutely fine. I had daily updates on where my order was up to via the tracking link and the the order actually arrived the day before the earliest estimate. Package was clearly brand new, genuine and unopened. Very impressed.
Wesley –
Very happy with the service. Ive bought many things from eglobal over the years. Occasionally theres a slight delay with shipment due to low stock levels. But eglobals support team is quick to respond to my email inquiries. Perhaps eglobal could include an indication of remaining stock on their website so that customers have a better idea as to when items will be delivered.
Sathya –
Quite a nice addition to my video kit. Works well in most situation, my only grind is that if you have a lens thats long and heavy and would make your camera package front heavy, it is quite a task to balance the gimbal and so more often than not it falls forward and adjusting the position of your camera in the gimbal plate wouldnt do much help Other than that, its pretty good.
billuthe0 –
Well built Cant wait to see all the different things I am able to do with this.
Marek –
I bought a Panasonic 42.5 f1,7 lens. 8 days have passed since the purchase and delivery. I will recommend this shop to everyone
Carlos Eduardo –
This gimbal really keeps the image steady. Im impressed.
Bryan –
I have found this gimbal to be well built and fairly easy to figure use and shoot video. Great battery life. The instructions are weak and the Zhiyun software is nonfunctional on my newer Mac. I am unable to connect the gimbal to the computer for firmware updates and fine tuning. Hopefully these features wont be needed any time soon. The phone app does work but is not easy to learn.
MICHAEL –
Amazing difference this makes over handholding video. Controls are minimal and there is a learning curve to using it. I wish there was a quick release plate to quickly switch from video to handheld still photography but it seems you have to unscrew and rebalance each time.
pbakolas –
I was lucky enough to buy it from a shop that proved to be very reliable and patient. The first gimbal came and worked for a couple of shots. Then, just stopped working. Made all the updates and followed every instruction i found on the web. Nothing. I returned it, bought another one, thinking it would be a malfunction on the first unit. But as soon as I opened the box, i was caught by surprise to see that it also didnt work. The second one, refused to work at all. Of course, i did all the updates and everything, but kept on getting in sleep mode, as the first one did. After all these, i returned it as well and im quite sure i will never buy a Zhiyun product again….
Anonymous –
Even if quarantine and everything, but its perfect
Dylan –
I was really skeptical at first, as I live in the U.K and had read some really horror stories about this company. However, in a bid to save 100 on the Zhiyun Crane Plus. I ordered and it actually arrived, brand new So would definitely say to anyone debating, just go for it.
Raphael –
I have a gh4 and panasonic 1235mm, that set up works perfectly with this gimbal. I also have the Rokinon 35mm t1.5. That is a much heavier set up, which the gimbal can handle, however the lens is too big for it. I have to slide the camera all the way back, and then its touches the back motor. But thats all, im super stoked with this thing
Gerald –
The shipping took about 7 days. First impression An amazing Gimbal for my DSLM setup 1,3kg 2.9 lb. Couldnt test all features yet, but the balancing modes work superb.
Alvin –
An amazing product and great value for your money. I use it with both my Sony RX100V and Sony A6500 just fine.
John –
Using the M43 G7 and being well below the maximum weight it would make a noise like it was too heavy and the external audio could pick it up. When attempted to update the firmware it made the crane almost useless.
Muhammed –
This is my first time ordering from this company. It was a great experience and I will definitely shop here again.
Vanessa –
Item works perfectly, delivery came on time. Overall I am very happy with a purchase
Asjad –
I was unsure at the time of putting order as I have never ordered online. But I am really happy that I ordered my gimbal here and received it 2 days back I would recommend eglobalcentral to everyone since it is cheap and trustworthy. Please dont go for false rumors.
Kostas307 –
The item is as described. Price is the lowest Ive seen in a store. Very reliable as gimbal and easy to balance it only took me about a minute or so. The only thing I have to mention that it took a little more than 6 days to arrive in Greece after the payment. But I think it was a random thing about the shipping time.
Pter –
I really like this item Best price, fast shipping
farshid –
The gimbal comes in its own case and feels very professional. At the moment I cannot yet balance my video camera and have ordered some extra weights to compensate, so I cannot comment on the gimbal. But there are many videos on YouTube for that. Eglobal has a fantastic price and sent item promptly. Well done.
Jason –
Ive worked with many gimbals and havent found one yet that is perfect. This one is really nice and my favorite so far. I am not a fan of not having OLED since the user interface is a little confusing, but once you adapt it is does its job
Joanne –
I havent received my gimbal after having ordered it on the 8th of June and have written so many email but there Are only automated responses . Very frustrating . Ive also checked that Ive been charged for the product
Shattner –
Arrived on time, product is genuine. Everything is perfect.
sfernand21 –
It didnt come with instructions and Ive had to do more searches that acceptable to work out how to use the modes but otherwise it works really well. Balancing a camera can be a frustrating activity but you get the hang of it..
theboogle –
Great product, feature rich. 4.4lb max weight is a good weight. The more expense 7lb model is nice, but even at 4 lbs it gets heavy after long takes. Quick Tip Keep the standfeet on folded up and use two hands for extra leverage.
Caesar –
Delivery time frame is terribleTracking provided but no actual trackingThe cables does not fit the ports
marzhan1986 –
The best gimbal ever. It is very cheap and the quality is great.I am very impressed by this item. My filming has improved a lot.
David –
Eglobal have the best prices on the web Thats all I can say Good product for smaller setups.
Ivan –
I do not like too much. I highly recommend buy zhiyun crane 2
Star –
I bought this gimbal, and I like it enough to do simple shots. It doesnt connect to my Zhiyun app so I have to control it manually, and It doesnt connect to my canon camera. So it is limiting on what I can do. I love the 360 turn and the functions it has.
OMAR –
Loved it, My best recomendation is for large cameras. You can add weight and use smaller cameras, but I believe it would be a better option to buy something smaller like the Zhiyun M2 instead. But If you have a DSLR camera, or something bigger than a point and shoot, this one is for you Professional results, with a nice price point, I couldnt be more jhappy with it
Marc –
I bought one of these to use with my EOS R. The weight of the R with either my RF 24105 F4 or my RF 1535 F2.8 is substantially under the 5.5 pound rating of this gimbal. In spite of that I could not get this gimbal to balance. It went from flopping forward to flopping backwards immediately and wouldnt get close to balancing. In use it stuttered and never operated smoothly. I tried reaching out to Zhiyun and got referred to useless videos. This was a total waste of money. Dont make the same mistake I did. Dont buy this. Before I buy my next gimbal Im going to make someone show me it works with my camera and lenses. I may end up throwing this one in the trash to keep it from frustrating someone else.
Gabriel –
There are so many things I dont like about this gimbal… but despite all of those things I get the smoothest footage with this gimbal. I have tried the Moza Air 2 and the Ronin S. Despite the better ergonomics and design of the larger gimbals. I get significantly smoother footage with this gimbal. I hate that the motor blocks the screen. I hate that I rarely know what mode I am in without having to restart the gimbal, but I love the smooth footage. Its all about smooth footage. So… this is my winner. I wish Zhiyun would make this gimbal with the locking, screen, and convince of other gimbals.
David –
Only disappointment is you cannot wire like a Sony.
John –
After a bit of tweaking it finally worked.
3kings1star –
I am an elderly is a bit on heavy size partly I have a small hand. The product feel good quality . Yet to try to use it in a very near future. A bit expensive .
Scott –
This is a great piece of equipment. We are using it primarily for short video clips for our website. Of course, theres a bit of a learning curve, but its quite intuitive and mostly just requires some practice to execute the endless moves you can use to create really interesting effects. I think the lower priced gimbals arent worth the bother and I dont need all the capabilities nor do I want the weight of the more expensive models. Im very satisfied. The BH staff are always very knowledgeable and helpful.
H –
This gimbal is fun to use, saves space and give a really good performance In both stablazing the image and the mods the it has. The follow focus works perfectly. I just didnt like the image transmission module. It was laggy. And the image wasnt very pleasant to look at. Didnt work for me even when I was trying to use it use to check my focus. Overall its a nice package for a reasonable price. Recommend .
Daniel –
Used a GH4 with the tiny 20mm 1.7 pancake lens and it worked BEAUTIFULLY. The crane plus produced some really stunning footage. When I put on a Nikon 85 1.4g with a speed booster is approx 2 pounds 3 12 pounds total. After carefully balancing the gimbal, and having fresh batteries, it is overwhelmed by the GH4Nikon 85Speedbooster combo. Switched out the 85 1.4 to the Nikon 35 1.8 and it was a little better, but still had micro jerks when steadying it. Saying it has a 5.5 payload is openly dishonest. Other than that, the build quality, case and performance on sub 2 pound loads is superb.
wallcolour –
Great piece of kit.
ANDREW –
Im very happy with this. The footage you can get is incredibly smooth. My only complaint is you cant see what mode toure In. You have to move it to find out. That Why I give it 4 stars.This is still great and can hold 5.5 pounds.
Christopher –
I already had the CraneV2 but wanted to be able to use a Sony 7Rii and 7Riii with heavier 1635mm Sony G lens. Also wanted the tracking feature.. The Crane Plus works well with my set up. Tracking using a small light iPod mounted ontop of hot shoe is somewhat cumbersome, but much better than my larger HTC cell phone.. And tracking say lights of a boat on the Nile wasnt good as it would switch to track other lights etc.. Using a heavy cell phone is even worse in terms of balance issues.. , you cant balance the camera with a big phone on the hotshoe, but do the best you can in terms of leftright and frontback balance so motors have less work. But over all satisfied crane plus… With my sony 7Rii 1635mm set up, it is heavy, I dont own the new Crane 2 but it is clearly much heavier.. The tracking and timelapse are just software apps that you can use with any of the Crane products, but differneces have to do with weight the crane can handle, the craneV2 wont work well with tracking app because it cant handle added weight of cell phone for tracking.. Crane2 can handle heavier camera and cell phone tracking plus has focus wheel, but will be very heavy to hold for long periods… Say more than a few min. So if you dont need the focus wheel, but want medium weight set up, the Crane Plus is a good option.
Stephane –
Easy to use and setup, needs practice and wish there was an mode indicator ex. a light so u know which mode ur on ex. Pan vs tilt vs etc. I highly recommend a quick release plate ex. Manfrotto 323 to make switching between gimbal and freehand a lot easier and MUCH more userfriendly.
Zsolt –
Excellent gimbal, it has the best price in the market Amazing smooth footage.One minus thing in the mobile app android I can not find the save button for the motion path under the timelapse function.
rockgodkris –
The Zhyiun Crane Plus is a great piece of kit. Im used to using the Crane M, which is another fantastic Gimbal. I do find that the Plus, has a much nicer handling feel to the M version and, of course the increased payload. A great price, considering that V12s are vastly more expensive.
Anwar –
Great Best value for budget gimbal
Ruy –
exceeded my expectations. I went with the intention of buying from another brand, but the seller convinced me to buy the Crane Plus, which would be perfect for my camera. And it really was. I was afraid of the battery, but it actually lasts 12 hours straight. I indicate the purchase for those who have mirrolles or dlsr cameras.
Jas –
the leaflet doesnt help at all. i spent 4 hours still strugling with it…

Zhiyun Crane Plus is super easy to use and balance. The app could be better, with some android flaws, but all in all very good. Good price and reasonable shipping
Mychal –
I use it on my A7S with small shotgun mic on camera. Works great and is definitely more stable than my older Crane v1. Nice case and all the extras come with this model also.
adapresle8 –
The Zhiyun Crane Plus offers very smooth gimbal action. The ondevice controls are easy to use, and balancing it is pretty straightforward. The mobile app leaves a little to be desired, and is not super userfriendly.
Aaron –
This gimbal has great quality material, and works like a charm as a stabilizer, but my 1 biggest gripe is that my T5i Canon isnt compatible with the built in remote functions, for stopstart video, photo taking and focus buttons on handle….
Andrs –
Exactly what i wanted, perfect match with my Panasonic G80. Only drawback is that i cannot balance it well with a smaller lens. But its not the products mistake, and it can work unbalanced.I would buy it again
papm0 –
Fantastic price value ratio. Good stabilization. One problem, if the camera is light, can not be balanced. Must be counterweight. Very good app. I received yesterday, so far I am very happy.
Cyrus –
In the beginning it took a little to actually balance the camera, but it works like a charm. I used it with my Canon 80d whole thing weights about 3.5 lbs and it had no problem. recommended
noah –
It came a little bit late but the product is amazing just as they saidIt comes with the full package and casing to
zdraika –
I have only tried it for a day. Naturally I did not yed do extensive testing, however I can already say that for the price it is amazing. Very easy and quick to set up. The build quality is top class. All metal, beautifully finished, feels sturdy but not heavy. It certainly does not feel like an entry level gimbal at all. It has a few modes that are more than enough for a casual shooter. It does not have a screen and other extras but for the price it is amazing, plus it is light and small, especially if you use it with mirrorless like a7 line, fuji or panasonic
Xinyi L. –
I ordered this because it suits my Sony A7iii and offers a very lightweight solution. It also has a cable control while RoninS doesnt the infrared control is not as convenient and reliable.I tested it on my A7iii 35mm 2.8 Zeiss. The results are super smooth videos, even at the beach with strong winds. I have yet to test it with larger lenses.Initially, due to a product defect in the attached Sony cable, the cable control doesnt work on my Sony. I directly contacted Zhiyun service and they mailed me a new one from China and now it works properly. I think their aftersale service is great.The only downside of this gimbal is the absence of a mode indicator. So you have to memorize which mode it is in while it goes through a loop every time you press mode. If you use it with extended time then it wont be much of an issue.
tikraslietuvis –
Very satisfied. No quick release plate though.
Clay –
After watchingreading so many reviews on this I thought I would give it a try. Unfortunately, After having it perfectly balanced over and over again when the motors turn on, Camera doesnt stay perfectly stable like it should settings are very out of wack and cannot adjust through app like you should.
ChennaChen –
Very smooth set up, and has been great using it. Have used it in every way since.
Otto –
So cheap but very reliable gimbal, perfect for any mirrorless camera.
Anonymous –
The device itself is amazing. It was easier to set up than I thought. The balancing setup took about half hour but I felt like an expert once I got the hang of it. The only gripe with this device is that I couldnt link up my phone to the device. I tried several times but no luck.
