Getting started to use Zhiyun Smooth Q you just need to slot your mobile phone. The follow mode will lock the camera in that position which is very handy sin you hand moves around it keeps the camera in that same position so if you can see your hands moving their left and right the mobile phone is still pointing straight ahead. It works perfectly fine the same exact stabilization and the modes of this is the smooth Q the new model 450 grams remember it does have a larger battery in there and then the old model which is three hand and 96 grams so the newer one it's 50 grams more heavy but because it has that extra battery in there that it's a worthwhile trade-off there. This mode actually faces in that same direction allows you to do some interesting shots.

The gimbal itself has various reasons for choosing it, the grip feels more comfortable it's a little bit larger yes it's plasticky so it doesn't heavy.We get all that extra battery life and it can handle large phones here without any problems but when you put the accessories on here put that microphone on the end it was just too heavy causing the whole thing to slump down so you need to bear that in mind if you're going to use accessories it's going to be very dependent on DeNoble find you use if you use a smaller mobile phone and it has a 3.5 millimeter port on the top then external microphones will works. And you can put your external lens clips on and whatnot to get that fish out of it that should be fine with this thing. The stabilization of Smooth Q is very good and you can plug in USB cable to this and charge your mobile phone something you can't do on the others.

The smooth Q it's a new mobile gimbal from ZHIYUN, this is a decent gimbal. So this one apparently the improved version now will give us up to 11 hours of battery life and that battery pack and it can actually be doubled up to be used as a portable power pack charging a mobile phone you can also attach accessories now so that means you can put on an external microphone and you can also put on those means attachments and things like that it also works in portrait mode. It have a little strap that must be just for the case there, so you can sling that over your shoulder of course and carry it around with you without need of a backpack other accessories it has a micro USB cable okay so that's nicely packaged and you can see that it's got a form to it so that should give it pretty good protection enough now you can feel definitely lighter but it looks a little bit more elasticy.

It has the typical joystick there you can see so different modes on here now this one here is for the application as your focus controls for that and recording with the applications adds a power on you can turn that on your different modes and of course then the joystick there for your pad and tilt on lived here there's a micro USB and that's to charge it obviously and down the bottom there's a quarter inch thread so you can connect this up to a tripod just turn this around and you see here is a full-size USB that will be to charge your devices when you use this like a battery pack now here's the last gettin gimbal which you can see doesn't come with a hard case which was a slight annoyance. But this one has the removable battery so you always have to put the batteries into the base of this bit quality-wise.

This is all mostly all-metal apart from you could say the joystick gear that's plastic and we still have the thread on the bottom because battery capacity wise this one is just so much larger they're 11 hours or 12 hours it is versus around 3 to 4 on this one and you can see this one also you need to screw on a counterweight onto the end of this. There is no counterweight needed now for larger mobile phones on the smooth Q.
