With a sleek body and compact size, CRANE-M2 offers great comfort to your hand and unrivalled control over your camera. That’s a shame because there’s plenty you can do with the app once you’ve worked out how to pair your phone.

It’s packed with creative features and is flexible enough to stabilise not just lightweight action cameras and smartphones but larger mirrorless cameras as well.Well for anyone who may be interested it is a total freakin' nightmare trying to do firmware updates with zhiyun. The built-in fill light is integrated beside the camera plate, it features a CRI of 90+, 1000-lumen brightness, and five brightness levels, and it includes four interchangeable filters to change the colour temperature. Smaller and even more lightweight, the Zhiyun Crane M2 S 3-Axis Gimbal Stabilizer is designed with even more power than its predecessor to support compact cameras, smartphones, and action cameras up to 2. There’s even a tiny monochrome OLED display for accessing the gimbal’s various settings and displaying which of the various different shooting modes is in operation currently.

Smaller, more lightweight, the CRANE-M2 3-Axis Handheld Gimbal Stabilizer from Zhiyun-Tech is designed for compact cameras, smartphones, and action cams up to 1.The weight of it makes it easy to use it for longer periods, and I enjoyed using it once it was all set up. The Zhiyun Crane-M2 isn’t the cheapest gimbal around and if you only want to smooth out footage from your smartphone or action camera, there are better choices. Please include what you were doing when this page came up and the Cloudflare Ray ID found at the bottom of this page. The M2 can also carry lightweight action cameras but with the latest generation of in-camera stabilization this combination doesn’t seem to make a lot of sense, at least the results don’t look any better with the camera mounted on the gimbal compared to when filming hand-held. The CRANE-M2 offers 360° pan, 310° tilt, and 324° roll rotation across six modes of operation, including POV and Vortex modes.

Please check whether the camera is installed well and close to Tilt Axis Motor, and tighten all lock switches.And with a unique scale mark and memory lock, balancing can be easily finished and preserved, once and forever, saving much trouble of readjustment every time. One of the best improvements over the original Crane-M is the mounting plate which can slide to the left or right to balance and mount the camera precisely.
