I've got this one and the SPG FT gimbals. The ergonomics aren't an issue for me. The BIG NEGATIVE, is no lock mode control other than the trigger. If I want to use the gimbal in lock mode on a monopod, its impossible without using the app. That is very inconvenient if you are a 1-man crew. Very good and thorough review. Keep up the good work.

I bought one of these in Jan 2019. Today was the first time I ever used the dual handle. I now have some gear that I can attach to the handles ... an external audio recorder and shotgun mic and a larger monitor. It works good and gives me another shooting option. I always use the same camera and lens set so balancing wasn't an issue. I did set it up with an arca swiss style quick release, It's been used a lot and still works ok. I probably still would have bought it, if I had seen your review when it first came out. I got the single handle price and the store threw in the full kit for all the same price. Was a very good deal.

The mirror shots are messing with my head. Haha. Great video, David.

I am an old fan of Feiyu tech. His new AK series is also very good, and I look forward to doing new product evaluation.

I know this video is 4 years old, and I not sure if someone else found this out but if you Press the Mode button once it locks the orientation (kind of like using the trigger button) and you can unlock it by pressing the Mode button again

I found your channel and subscribed. Dig it. The gimbal and the tech inside makes this a must have for smaller cameras. Between this one and the Moza Air, you would have all of your gimbal bases covered. I love the Moza, specifically for the weight/payload and simplicity. I also have budget constraints.

Got it on B&H for 269 with the dual handlebars. They've been releasing lots of firmware updates too. Hopefully its not too bad. Worst case I just return it since they extended returns for the holidays.

Wish they had put a port to power your camera like Smooth-Q...other than that...greateat unit.
By far the best demo video I have seen. Straight to the point and everything is covered. I've sent this link to my clients...I don't do that lightly.
Glad to hear they updated LOCK mode.
Nice job dude...yes I'm from Southern Cali...film on.

i just bought the feiyutech a2000... its awesome

[japrogsch]

You say the only way to enable the locked mode is by holding down the trigger button. But you can also press the mode button quickly four times to toggle it on. I agree with the other critique points. What I found helps with the stickiness of the roll axis balance adjustment is to put some "upwards force" on that part of the arm to counter the weight of the camera since otherwise the rather large leverage of the cameras weight on that dovetail still produces a lot of friction.

Would you recommend this for 180€? I'm looking into buying one of these: G6 Max, AK2000, A2000. The A2000 really looks promising for the price (about the same as for the others). I want to pair it with a Sony A6400.

[typhoolin]

NIce review! Thanks for your honesty on this. Overall, I'd say it looks highly useful and the auto-track (auto-panning) is really cool. Agree w/ Mr. Davis - those mirror shots are wild!

[HariWPatriadi]

Thank you David for being so clear in your review. Did you have the chance to try the new DJI Ronin-S? Is the a2000 any lighter?

[danielradomiak]

dont have dslr but found this review nice to watch anyway. keep up good work!!!

[edwardscruggs]

Great review and quite informative. Thanks! I have a question if I may:
I just received my A 2000 single grip. Is the duel grip also sold separately? I might want to upgrade.
Thanks Again!
Edward

Awesome video now I decided to buy 1 many thanks

[PaddimitiSebastianPaddags]

HI, nice video! Thanks for that. Did you notice any trouble with noise coming from the motor? I have one gimbal for my GoPro and it is loud as f*** ... But here it looks and sounds to be no problem(?).
Thanks for a short comment.

[BobBunch-ownyourlife]

Great video bro very thorough. Have a great day

[byaherongmanok]

Hey David, is this compatible with Canon M100? Your response is highly appreciated. Thanks.
