The Zhiyun Smooth X – 2-Axis Gimbal for Smartphones really brings truth to the saying that size doesn’t matter. Although small, this gimbal is mighty and punches well above its weight. Designed with Smartphone users in mind, it is the perfect accessory to give you extra reach so you can always get the perfect angle.

Create unbelievably smooth footage

With the ability to shoot and record with just three buttons, the Smooth X effortlessly creates smooth (as the name suggests) and seamless footage. I think we can all agree that there is nothing worse than watching video footage that jerks and jumps around, but thanks to this gimbal, you’ll never have that problem again.

Work your angles

With a revolutionary extendable arm that extends up to 260mm, you can afford to be picky with what angle you shoot from. The gimbal also boasts a rotatable motor axis that can fold and be locked in at different angle, so it really makes for endless possibilities. Additionally, an instant landscape to portrait transition allows you to easily switch between the two without having to stop recording.

Hands-free capabilities

If you’re wanting to shoot a vlog style video or simply don’t want to hold the gimbal, it’s as easy as standing it on a flat surface, waving your hand in front of it and you’re off and recording. Aside from being an amazing toolfor videography, it is also a brilliant feature for the times when you are off exploring on your own and you want something a little more than a selfie.

In-built editing

If you’re under the pump and need a video produced quickly, the newly implemented SMART mode offers a huge variety of in-built templates that are accompanied by customised movements, music and effects.

Light and Compact Design

Weighing in at a tiny 246g, and when folded down roughly the size of a Smartphone, the gimbal can be easily transported anywhere and will be extremely beneficial for travellers or those out on lengthy shoots.
