Product Information

Handheld gimbals feature a grip so you can walk around with your GoPro in your hand. It’s the ideal setup if you want complete freedom over camera movements. The Smooth 4 isn’t really designed for the kind of activity typically associated with GoPros, since smartphone gimbals are generally not weather proof and have slightly slower follow speeds. But for those who spend a lot of time filming with their phone and only occasionally take out their GoPro, the Smooth 4 is worth a look. Another 2-in-1 gimbal, the Freevision Vilta-G is a solid alternative to the Removu S1. Top notch build quality, a very comfortable grip, decent stabilization performance and quiet motors are just enough to justify its high price tag. Compared to other gimbals, motor noise is more noticeable. This might not be an issue for some, but those doing more audio-sensitive work like vlogging might take an issue with it. The large diameter octagonal-shaped rubberized grip gives you an extra secure hold – and is comfortable to hold for hours at a time. It also works well outside of the water, making filming on dry land a breeze.

Zhiyun is a well-known gimbal manufacturer, though most of its offerings are designed for DSLR, mirrorless and cinema cameras. Included with the floating handle is a double mount – allowing you to attach two separate cameras or smartphones at the same time. This allows you to film in both directions simultaneously, or it can be used to attach an underwater light. The mount tilts in 180 degrees which provides a huge range of shooting possibilities. Key Features The INKEE FALCON gimbal is compatible with the GoPro Hero 12/11/10/9/8/7/6/5, DJI OSMO Action series, Insta360 ONE R and any other action cameras that have similar dimensions. INKEE FALCON Overview

And just like the MT2, it has the same cons of not being a dedicated GoPro gimbal. Namely, it’s bigger, more expensive, and involves an intricate balancing procedure. The G6’s companion app, Feiyu ON, allows you to link up your smartphone and gimbal over bluetooth and control the gimbal remotely. This means you could remotely pan and tilt the gimbal or even setup motion time lapses while your gimbal and GoPro is in another room. What I Liked MULTI-PURPOSE HOLLOW COMPARTMENT - KEEP YOUR ESSENTIAL SAFE WHILE IN WATER: The watertight compartment of the grip can be used either as a storage for valuable small items to keep dry; or to achieve neutral buoyancy during scuba diving, snorkelling and other underwater activities. When the handle is filled with water it hovers neutrally underwater without forcing its way up to the surface, while used with no water in the chamber it turn into a camera floater and float on water surface.

The gimbal has long been considered to produce the best image stabilization of any GoPro gimbal to date. While third-party gimbals play catch up, GoPro have consistently released firmware updates to iron out some of the performance issues that used to exist.

A gimbal can still be useful during complex movements or in windy conditions. The gimbal physically stabilizes the camera, while electronic stabilization has limits. The GoPro Karma Grip doesn’t come cheap, but those after native compatibility with GoPros should look no further than GoPro’s very own Karma Grip. Despite being a slightly older gimbal, it still manages to perform just as well as almost every other third-party gimbal in everything but battery life. Compatibility
