The Zhiyun Crane 3S is the latest addition in the Crane series of gimbals. Zhiyun has taken a lot of what they learned from building the Crane 3 Lab to create their latest flagship gimbal. The biggest selling point of the Crane 3S is that it can handle camera payloads of up to 6.49 kg (14.3 lb).

Zhiyun has forged a strong reputation for making affordable, yet high-quality gimbals, so let’s see if the Crane 3S follows in those footsteps.

It fills a gap in the market

For the last few years, we have had one-handed gimbals that were meant for mirrorless/DSLR cameras and smaller sized digital cinema cameras, or larger gimbals such as the DJI Ronin 2 or Movi Pro that were designed for mid to larger sized digital cameras. There really wasn’t anything that bridged that gap.

Moza Air X

One of the few exceptions was probably the Moza Air X. It is the only other single-handed gimbal that I can think of that could handle payloads of up to 6kg.

Sure, there are gimbals such as the Zhiyun Crane 3 Lab, DJI Ronin-S, and Moza Air 2, which could take smaller sized digital cinema cameras with a little persuasion, but that is not what they were primarily designed to do.

The Crane 3S is bridging a gap in the market between single-handed gimbals and gimbals that were designed to be specifically used with mid to large-sized digital cinema cameras.

With a lot of shooters using cameras such as the Canon C200/C300/C500, Sony FX7/FX9, Panasonic EVA1, and to a lesser extent the Kinefinity TERRA/MAVO and Z-Cam offerings, there is a place for a gimbal such as the Crane 3S.

Yes, you could well argue that running a small to mid-sized digital cinema camera on a one-handed gimbal is counter-intuitive, but we will explore that argument a little later on.

What cameras will work with it?

Screenshot 2020 04 12 at 3 42 55 PM 1

Compatible cameras include the Canon EOS 1DX, Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Cameras, Canon Cinema EOS, Sony FS & FX series, and RED Digital Cinema Cameras. You could of course also use cameras such as the ARRI ALEXA Mini, Panasonic EVA 1, Z-Cam series, and any of the KInefinity options.

Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should

DSC 2519

It is all good and well being able to put a small to mid-sized digital cinema camera on a single-handed gimbal, but is it the best idea? That answer really depends on what you want to do with this gimbal. I see it more as a gimbal you would attach to a crane or car mount than a gimbal people will want to use for regular shots.

If you are someone who just wants to get the occasional gimbal shot using their main ‘A’ camera then maybe it makes sense. If you are someone who wants to uses gimbal a lot and needs to hold onto it for extended periods of time then you should steer clear.

DSC 6370

In a lot of ways, the Crane 3S is a niche product and it is only going to appeal to a certain segment of the market, it isn’t for everyone.

Design

Zhiyun took direct design cues from the Crane 3 Lab, and its appearance is very similar. Is it two handles or one handle? Well, it’s sort of both. By designing the gimbal in this way it has allowed Zhiyun to shorten the main handle. The reason behind doing this is to allow the user to get the gimbal closer to the ground for low-angle shots.

DSC 6287 01Secondary handle on the Crane 3S

DSC 6287 01

The secondary handle on the Zhiyun Crane 3 Lab

Unlike on the Crane 3 Lab, the secondary handle isn’t fixed in a locked and non-movable position.

DSC 6316

The Crane 3S handle can be detached if you don’t want to use it.

DSC 6312

DSC 6309

DSC 6310 01

The secondary, removable handle has an electronic connection point that slides into the main section of the Crane 3S. This allows power and control functionality.

DSC 6308 01

It is simple to remove the handle and even easier to put it back on.

Having a secondary handle is supposed to allow the operator to make a smooth transition to and from the low mode. By including the secondary handle you just have to change your hand position depending on whether you want to hold it upright or use it in an underslung position.

DSC 6318 01

On the Crane 3S, you can use the control handle, the regular handle, or even the mini tripod stand on the back of the gimbal.

DSC 6329 01

If you use the regular handle as well as the mini tripod legs the gimbal becomes very long.

Screenshot 2020 04 12 at 4 07 22 PM

The big difference between the Crane 3 Lab and the Crane 3S is that the Crane3S has been designed to be a lot more modular, which makes it a lot easier to attach and use with industry equipment.

You need to hold the Crane 3S with two hands, one on each handle. This does take some getting used to and you need to work out which hand goes on what handle. There really isn’t any right or wrong way to position your hands. Whether you like the two handle design is going to very much be down to personal preference. By going with this type of design, at least Zhiyun has given you options as to how you can hold and use the Crane 3S. You may well find that you prefer holding it one particular configuration over another. I will talk more about how it is to actually use and hold later in the review.

If you are used to the Zhiyun Crane Lab 3, then you will feel right at home operating the Crane 3S.

DSC 6276 01

DSC 6276 01

DSC 6294 01

Just like on the Weebill Lab and Crane 3 Lab, the rear arm is also offset so you don’t have the back screen on your camera being obscured when you are shooting. However, with the Crane 3S, Zhiyun has gone a step further and designed the gimbal with a 55° tilted roll axis that provides an even more unobstructed view.

Screenshot 2020 04 12 at 4 06 41 PM

Screenshot 2020 04 12 at 4 06 50 PM

If you need to run an even longer camera, Zhiyun includes an extension arm bracket.

You need to use this extension arm bracket if you are running longer camera and lens packages. There weren’t any instructions for how to install it, so here is what I had to do in steps:

DSC 6354 01

Undo the four screws on the roll arm.

DSC 6351 01

2. Undo the two small screws that hold the cable cover in place

DSC 6356 01

3. Gently separate the arm from the roll axis

DSC 6359 01

4. Install the extension arm bracket near the roll motor.

DSC 6360

5. Install the extension arm bracket to the roll arm

DSC 6362

DSC 6362

DSC 6363 01

6. Reinstall the cable cover and tighten the screws

To return the gimbal to its original form you just reverse these steps.

High payload capacity

DSC 6369 01

The Crane 3S has a payload capacity of 6.49 kg (14.3 lb). That is a substantial jump from the Crane 3 Lab’s 4.58 kg (10.14 lb) load capacity.

In recent times we have seen companies coming out with one-handed gimbals that can accept some pretty heavy payloads. In my opinion, I think this sort of defeats the purpose of having a compact one-handed gimbal. The heavier the payload, the shorter the time you actually hold it for. I think once a gimbal payload reaches a certain point you are better off with a two-handed design. This is especially true if you are going to try and use something like a Canon C300, Panasonic EVA-1, or an ALEXA Mini on a single-handed gimbal.

DSC 2523

In my opinion, if you are just going to be running a small mirrorless or DSLR set up, there really isn’t a lot gained by buying a larger one-handed gimbal that supports high payloads. Sure, having the added flexibility to run a variety of cameras on a gimbal is great, but you really need to take into account just how long you can operate a single-handed gimbal with a heavy payload.

IMG 8019

So how does the Crane 3S payload capacity compare to other single-handed gimbals? Below you can see:

Above you can see the payload capacities of some of the other one-handed gimbals that are available. As you can see, the Crane 3S payload capacity is almost 2 kg more than the Crane 3 Lab and almost 3 kg more than the capacity of the DJI Ronin S.

It still has a reasonably small footprint

DSC 6343

Despite its large payload capacity, the Crane 3S can still be folded down into a relatively small footprint. Look, it is still quite big, but at least the design enables you to fold it down into a workable solution. This makes it a lot more convenient to travel with. This is a big advantage that the Zhiyun models have over other competing gimbals, such as the DJI Ronin-S and the Moza Air 2.

Who is it aimed at?

Screenshot 2020 04 13 at 4 04 01 PM

The Crane 3S is aimed at users of small to mid-sized digital cinema cameras and larger mirrorless and DSLR camera packages. Even if you are running a mirrorless or DSLR camera having a larger payload capacity gives you the flexibility to be able to run heavier lenses without straining the gimbal.

IMG 8023

A lot of shooters are happy running mirrorless or DSLR cameras on a gimbal and I’m not quite sure how many would prefer to be using their main camera on a gimbal instead. Running a smaller mirrorless or DSLR ‘B’ camera on a gimbal is just easier for most shooters as they don’t want to carry around a larger gimbal like a DJI Ronin 2 or Movi Pro. Whether the Crane 3S tempts shooters to start using their main camera on a gimbal will be interesting to see.

What do you get?

DSC 6347

The Zhiyun Crane 3S comes in a foam case that you can carry and store the gimbal in. The case probably isn’t strong enough for air travel, so I wouldn’t recommend you check it in.

DSC 6348 01

Inside the case, there are custom cutouts for everything that comes with the gimbal. All the components are easy to see and access.

The Crane 3S comes in a case, but once you fit the extension arm bracket it won’t fit back into the case. This is something you should be aware of.

You also get a quick start guide which gives you enough information that you can set up and get your gimbal running fairly quickly.

Along with the actual Crane 3S gimbal, you also get:

Build Quality

DSC 6271 01

DSC 6251

DSC 6254

DSC 6260 01

The Crane 3S has a similar build quality to the Crane 3 Lab. In saying that, I think Zhiyun gimbals have continued to improve over time and the Crane 3S feels just a little more polished than the Crane 3 Lab.

DSC 2528

Despite quite a lot of plastic being used, it’s still a pretty heavy gimbal. All the buttons, switches, and knobs are fairly well made. If you are familiar with Zhiyun products you will be more than happy with the build quality of the Crane 3S. There wasn’t anything that I saw that overly concerned me in terms of how it was built and put together. It looks like it would hold up well to the rigors of field use.

The gimbal is heavy

Screenshot 2020 04 13 at 4 02 50 PM

Look there is no way to sugar coat it, it’s a heavy gimbal. Even using a smaller sized digital cinema camera, I wasn’t able to hold onto it for very long before I felt like I wanted to put it back down. This is not a dig at the Crane 3S, I find this to be the case with all of the larger single-handed gimbals.

What you do need to keep in mind is that the Crane 3S (with batteries) weighs in at 2.47 kg (5.45 lb). If you were to attach a camera package with a payload of around 6 kg you are looking at having to carry around 8.5 kg. This is not easy to do and you will find yourself putting the gimbal down within a few minutes.

How much does it weigh compared to other gimbals? Below you can see:

Batteries & Run Time

DSC 6372

The Crane 3S requires 3x 18650 batteries, and Zhiyun claims a run time of up to 12 hours. Based on my experience using the gimbal I found that the battery life was good and it should easily get most shooters through an entire day.

DSC 6373

To remove the battery cover, there is a little locking switch on the top that you need to unlock.

Screenshot 2020 04 12 at 4 24 37 PM

If you want longer run times, Zhiyun also now sells an optional TransMount PowerPlus Battery Pack that can house 6x 18650 batteries. It also serves as a compact yet fast-charging power bank for your devices.

The TransMount PowerPlus Battery Pack will run the CRANE 3S for up to 18 hours. For camera combos over 3kg, Zhiyun recommends you use the PowerPlus Battery Pack.

DSC 6253

There is a DC input on the gimbal where you attach the TransMount PowerPlus Battery Pack.

Double Locks

DSC 6255

DSC 6255

DSC 6256 01

DSC 6257 01

Just like the Crane 3 Lab, the Crane 3S Lab features a latch on each axis that you can lock off to make balancing the gimbal a lot easier. Zhiyun has actually slightly redesigned this system and now it features double locks.

The double locks are a necessity because you don’t want a heavy camera and lens package falling down or to one side when you are trying to balance it.

DSC 6262 01

The nice aspect about these latches is they aren’t made out of plastic, they are anodized aluminum and are not going to break.

What I do like is if you are traveling around from location to location you can lock all of the axes and keep your camera on the gimbal. Then when you turn up you can simply unlock them and you are ready to go. This saves you a ton of time as you don’t have to re-balance the gimbal every time you move locations. If you are like me, I tend to leave a camera on a gimbal as I find it too time-consuming to be taking a camera on and off all the time. This is one of my favorite features of the Crane 3S.

In saying all of this, it is just as easy to take your camera off as it has a quick-release plate. This allows you to put the camera back on the gimbal without needing to do any major rebalancing.

Balancing

DSC 6275 01

Here is where I found the Crane 3S to be very hit and miss. Balancing smaller camera and lens packages like a Panasonic S1H or a BMPCC 6K is relatively easy and straight forward, but larger cameras are a different story.

Screenshot 2020 04 13 at 4 50 41 PM

I tried balancing a Kinefinity MAVO LF on the Crane 3S and it was a little difficult. With larger cameras, the balance needs to more exact and things make the whole balancing process take longer.

DSC 6261

The other problem I found is that once you have a heavier camera placed on the gimbal, it becomes extremely hard to move the adjustment arms. They require you to use so much force that it is hard to make subtle micro-adjustments.

With bigger, heavier cameras it is also hard to make adjustments because you have all of the weight and inertia of the camera fighting against you.

Quick Release Plate

DSC 6266 01

The Crane 3S utilizes a Manfrotto quick release plate. Once you attach the plate to your camera you just slide it on and then lock it in place. The locking mechanism hs been slightly redesigned and it is better than the one found on the Crane 3 Lab.

DSC 6267 01

DSC 6267 01

DSC 6344

DSC 6345 01

The redesigned plate also lets you attach the included rods straight to the front of the plate.

No built-in stand

DSC 6245

The Crane3S comes with a small removable stand that you can attach to the bottom of the gimbal. This allows you to put the camera and gimbal down onto a flat surface.

This removable stand is quite small and the problem I found is that it is awkward to unfold quickly, especially when you need to do it with one hand.

Zhiyun Crane 3 Lab Review

In a nice touch, Zhiyun has labeled the tripod stand so you know exactly which way it needs to be turned to remove it or tighten it onto the gimbal. I like little touches like this because it shows me that the design team is paying attention to small details.

Mounting Points

DSC 6374

The Crane 3S has a 3/8″ mounting point on the base of the main handle. This is where you can attach the included Mini Tripod Legs, or put it onto a light stand, pole or anything else that you want to use.

DSC 6376

There is also a 3/8″ mounting point towards the back of the gimbal. Here there are also two 1/4 20″ tapped mounting holes.

DSC 6341

DSC 6340

Zhiyun also includes a mounting bracket that you can attach with two screws to this same mounting point. This allows you to mount other accessories or move the long handle further back.

DSC 6264

DSC 6375

Near the back of the gimbal, there are also two rosette style attachment points (one on the left side and one on the right side)where you can attach the optional TransMount Phone Holder with Crown Gear or a monitor arm or other accessory. This is also a 1/4-20″ tapped hole.

Zhiyun Crane 3 Lab Review Optional TransMount Phone holder

Optional TransMount Phone holder

The optional TransMount Phone Holder with Crown Gear really is a must if you are purchasing the Crane 3S. I still can’t work out why they made this an optional accessory and charge $49 USD for it. It really should have been a standard accessory that is included with the gimbal.

Wireless Image Transmission

Using the wireless video feed with an iPhone 7 Zhiyun Crane 3 Lab

Using the wireless video feed with an iPhone 7+

First introduced on the Weebill Lab, wireless image transmission is also as a standard feature on the Crane 3 Lab, However, it is not standard on the Crane 3S. The in-built wireless was one of the main features for me that put the Weebill Lab ahead of its competition (when it worked). I hate rigging up an external monitor to a gimbal and I can’t for the life of me judge exposure, framing and focus from a tiny screen on the back of a camera. This is especially true when shooting in bright sunny conditions.

With no built-in wireless transmitter, you need to buy the optional module to be able to do real-time monitoring, framing, and camera control (although this depends on the camera).

Zhiyun Crane 3 Lab Review

The image is wirelessly transmitted over wi-fi so all you need to do is download the Zhiyun Play app and then fire up your smartphone. The way it works is that you need to connect an HDMI cable from your camera to the optional image transmission module.

The only problem is, and they never show you this in the marketing material, you need to have both the camera control cable and an HDMI cable connected up between your camera and the gimbal. This means you have a myriad of cables sticking out everywhere. You also need to be aware that with certain cameras, if you attach an HDMI cable or use a camera control cable, the back LCD screen turns black.

The Zhiyun Play app allows you to adjust and control your gimbal as well as control quite a few functions on your camera (this depends on what camera you are using).

Object tracking with the Zhiyun Crane 3 Lab

One of the features in the Zhiyun Play app is the image tracking. This feature allows you to draw a box around an object and then the gimbal will track that object no matter which direction the gimbal is moving. I found the image tracking to be pretty disappointing. It seems to only work when subjects are in the middle of the frame. As soon as they start moving toward the side of the frame the tracking seems to stop.

Physical Controls & Layout

DSC 6280

DSC 6282 01

DSC 6284 01

DSC 6279 01

DSC 6286

If you are familiar with other Zhiyun gimbals you will find that the basic control layout is very similar to the Crane 3 Lab, but some controls have been repositioned.

DSC 6289

Now, this is both good and bad. The good aspect is because of the way the Crane 3S has been designed, you are probably going to be holding it with two hands anyway. The bad aspect is that by positioning the controls and status screen on the rear handle, Zhiyun is forcing you to use it.

DSC 2532

If you want to use the joystick control or focus wheel then you are almost being forced into holding the gimbal with one hand on the rear handle and one on the main. If you want to just hold onto the main handle you won’t be able to easily change camera settings such as f-stop etc.

In saying this, if you did want to just hold onto the main handle or not use the rear handle, you could attach your smartphone and then make all of your changes there. That way you don’t have to touch any of the controls on the rear handle.

You may also find that you will have to hold the rear handle with whatever is your dominant hand. For example, if you are right-handed and you try and hold the rear handle with your left hand you might find it awkward to make changes or operate the buttons.

I do, however, like that the display screen is on the rear handle because it makes it a lot easier to see. Having the screen on the main handle doesn’t make a lot of operational sense because you can’t really see it easily.

On the rear handle, there is a small display, record button, GO button, buttons for changing the camera setting modes such as ISO and f-stop, and a dial for navigating the menu and making changes. To the left-hand side there are three buttons for changing the gimbals operating modes.

DSC 6333

On the rear of the back handle, you will find a zoom rocker. This can be used to zoom compatible lenses or to control the optional focus/zoom motor. There is also a dial underneath the zoom rocker that is for making camera setting adjustments.

DSC 6298 01

DSC 6270 01

To the far right of where the camera baseplate goes, you will find the inputs for camera control, and on the opposite side, you will find the inputs for focus and zoom control.

On the tilt axis, you will find the camera control input, as well as the inputs for focus and zoom motors.

PhoneGo Mode

If you want to follow fast moving objects or people you can enter what is called the PhoneGo Mode. By single tapping on the Go button, the gimbal goes into its maximum follow speed. This is handy if you are filming sports or anything with fast moving motion. This is similar to Sports mode on the Ronin-S.

Motion Sensor Control

The gimbal has a built-in motion control sensor, so if you don’t want to use your smartphone on your gimbal, you can take it off and turn it into a motion sensor controller. By simply moving your phone, you are controlling the gimbal in real time. This is a nice feature and it’s impressive that it is a free built-in feature in the app. If you have used Mimic with a Freefly Movi or the controller mirror mode on the Ronin 2, it is a similar feature.

It does take a bit of time to get used to how it works, and it is not the most intuitive way to operate your gimbal, but once you get the hang of it it works fairly well. This feature can come in handy if you are using the gimbal on a jib or as a remote head.

Focus & Zoom Motors

Getting critical focus, especially when shooting 4K on a full frame sensor camera is hard at the best of times. In the last 12 months or so we have seen quite a few follow focus systems emerge for gimbals. The Crane 3S has a built-in focus controller on the gimbals handle, but they also have two optional follow focus (or zoom) motors that are available. On the Crane 3S you can connect up two follow focus motors, so you can use one for focus and the other for zoom.

The TransMount Lite Servo Focus and Max Servo Zoom/Focus Controllers

The TransMount Lite Servo Focus and Max Servo Zoom/Focus Controllers

Now, there is actually two different versions of the motor available. One is the TransMount Lite Servo Focus Controller, and the other is the TransMount Max Servo Zoom/Focus Controller. While they look similar, the TransMount Max Servo Zoom/Focus Controller is slightly larger. Both Controllers will work on the Weebill Lab as well as the Crane 3 Lab and the new Crane 3S.

What's included with the TransMount Focus Motor

What’s included with the TransMount Focus Motor

Included with Focus Controllers are the mounting bracket, a 15mm rod, and the power, control cable.

Both Focus controllers feature a tool-less design, and they attach to the gimbal using just the included thumbscrews. To attach, you secure it to the supplied support bracket and mounting rod using two thumbscrews, and attach this assembly to the bottom of the gimbal’s baseplate with the third thumbscrew. You then connect the servo to the gimbal with the provided USB cable and connect the camera to the gimbal with one of the camera control cables the gimbal comes with. The USB cable connection provides zero-latency signal transmission.

The external follow focus can be controlled in two ways, one is through a tactile wheel on its body, or through the app directly on your smartphone screen. If you use one as a zoom, you can also control it via the app or through a zoom rocker on the gimbal.

Zhiyun Crane 3 Lab Review

The Zhiyun TransMount focus motor is pretty much silent

The external follow focus motors are relatively lightweight and certainly do work. You just hook it up to the gimbal with a cable and then you can control focus directly on the side of the gimbal. The motor is absolutely silent and doesn’t make any noise at all.

Zhiyun Crane 3 Lab Review

With the follow focus motor you get a couple of rubber lens gears that you can use on lenses that don’t have pitch gears. These work reasonably well, you just have to make sure you have then tight enough around the lens so they don’t slip or move. I found they were a little fiddly to put on to your lens and secure tightly.

While there is absolutely nothing wrong with how the motors operate or perform (with stills lenses) they do take a bit of time to install and set up. The whole process is a little fiddly and time consuming and by the time you add the rubber lens gear and attach another cable between the gimbal and the motor you end up with cables and bits and pieces everywhere. I think it would have made more sense to design a wireless system that communicated with both the gimbal and the app so you didn’t end up with so many cables. I would have also preferred to see the motors feature an inbuilt battery so they could be used without the gimbal.

How does it actually perform?

DSC 2538

Features are great, but at the end of the day it’s still a gimbal, and therefore it needs to be able to create smooth shots. So how does the Crane 3S perform? The gimbals stabilization is, for the most part, nice and smooth, and with the increased motor strength it never really feels like its struggling even if you are running very heavy camera payloads.

While it works well, it is heavy. The package I was running, including the weight of the Crane3S, tipped the scales at 6.8kg (15lb). If you take away the weight of the gimbal, and the SmallHD monitor and arm I was still 2.2kg short of reaching the max. payload capacity. I wouldn’t want to be holding a gimbal package that was 2kg heavier than the one I was using!

I did find a problem that if you had the adjustment arm where the camera sits all the way out to its full extension the tilt motor would vibrate violently and make a lot of noise. This is obviously a design flaw.

I found that the majority of the footage I got was very smooth and usable, and the gimbal performed well. Like any gimbal or Steadicam, results will vary depending on how proficient you are as an operator.

Above you can see some quick example footage captured with the Crane 3S. This is not a collection of pretty shots, as all I was interested in is to see how the gimbal performed and how it was to operate and use, especially with a heavier camera package.

Above you can see some shots taken at a higher frame rate. To be honest his tells me nothing about a gimbals performance. Any gimbal shot looks good in slow motion.

IMG 8016

As this gimbal can be used with a variety of cameras I also decided to do a couple of quick tests using a Nikon Z6. I wanted to see how the gimbal performs with a lighter camera.

Above you can see some vision from the Z6 and a Sigma 18-35mm F1.8 lens.

Like any new product there is always going to be a learning curve. It is very hard to make a comprehensive conclusion as to the performance of the gimbal without using it over a prolonged period of time.

One-handed gimbals always have the inherent problem of creating quite pronounced up and down movement when you are walking. This is due to the momentum of your body moving your arm up and down. With a two-handed gimbal, this is easier to control as you are essentially locking your shoulders to create a more stable platform. The Crane 3S actually does a fairly good job with this, although just like any one-handed gimbal, you will still get a slight up and down movement when walking.

DSC 2548 1

DSC 2549 1

The design of the Crane 3S does make it easier to get low angle shots and transition from a low angle to a normal level. Having two handles certainly does make a difference when doing these type of shots.

DSC 2546

I also liked that because the gimbal is quite long you can actually use it to do dolly style shots.

DSC 2563

It is nice to use the two handles on the bottom of the gimbal because you can actually use it as a sort of brace against your leg when you are resting.

Screenshot 2020 05 21 at 3 10 58 PM

You can also use the two handles to place the gimbal on the ground to get a regular low angle tripod style shot.

DSC 2560

Another benefit of the two handles is you can elevate the gimbal quite high. This allows you to create some interesting perspectives.

Screenshot 2020 05 25 at 10 10 11 AM

The problem I found when running a larger camera package and using both of the handles on the bottom of the gimbal is that to hold it comfortably you have to place your hand a long way down on the handles. When you do this you can no longer reach the joystick, so if you wanted to pan the gimbal left or right or up and down you can’t do it.

As far as the actual performance goes, I didn’t feel like it was that much different from any other Zhiyun product I had used.

The focus control wheel is located in a position where it isn’t that easy to use due to the way you have to hold onto the Crane 3S.

When you use your smartphone in the optional cradle I found it very hard to make changes without putting the gimbal down. To make changes you need to take your hand off the main handle, which means all of the weight gets transferred to the hand holding the rear handle.

To be perfectly frank, you are almost always going to be able to get better results from gimbals such as a Movi or Ronin. One handle gimbals have their limitations, but what you sacrifice in performance, you make up for in portability.

This is an interesting one, because if you want to run camera and lens payloads that are over 5kg, there aren’t many options unless you want to go to larger gimbal such as a DJI Ronin 2 or Movi Pro.

Realistically, if you want to stick to a smaller, more compact gimbal solution that is easier to travel with, the Crane 3S is arguably the only solution.

Price

Screenshot 2020 05 25 at 10 46 56 AM

The Crane 3S comes in a range of different configurations.:

Zhiyun-Tech CRANE 3S Handheld Stabilizer $739 USD

Zhiyun-Tech CRANE 3S PRO Handheld Stabilizer $1,149 USD

Zhiyun-Tech CRANE 3S-E Handheld Stabilizer $649 USD

The Crane 3S is more expensive than most other single-handed gimbals, but it does have a much higher payload capacity.

For the price, it represents very good value for money. As a comparison, a DJI Ronin 2 retails for $8,399 USD. Yes, it has a payload capacity of 30 lb, but before the Crane3S came along you would have had to use something like the Ronin 2 to run a rigged up Sony FS7.

Conclusion

Screenshot 2020 05 22 at 2 34 15 PM

Zhiyun has certainly made a product that will suit some shooters, especially if you have been wanting to run a mid-sized digital cinema camera but didn’t want to spend a ton of cash.

Does it get heavy? Yes. Do you have to put it down after a few minutes? Yes. If you want smaller sized gimbal that can run heavy payloads the trade-off is going to be the time you can spend using it before fatigue sets in. This is something you clearly need to understand if you are going to use it.

Unless you want to use it with an Easyrig or something similar you may find yourself saying more expletives than normal.

This is not a gimbal for everyone and you really need to think long and hard whether it is what you actually need.

I personally don’t like heavy one-handed style gimbals, but that’s just me. If you can’t hold a one-handed gimbal for more than a few minutes without having to put it down then that is a problem. I am less likely to use a gimbal that I can’t hold for more than a couple of minutes than one I can hold comfortably for a lot longer.

I have to give credit to Zhiyun. They are constantly improving their products and they have been at the forefront of innovation and features when it comes to single-handed gimbals.

I’m not a big fan of using heavy gimbals if you are just running smaller DSLR or mirrorless cameras. In that regard, for me at least, I prefer the smaller Weebill Lab or the Crane Lab 3 over the Crane 3S. In saying that, using a larger gimbal puts less stress on the motors and does give you more flexibility to use larger lenses and bigger cameras, but that does come at the expense of usability.

Zhiyun has certainly thrown everything but the kitchen sink into the Crane 3S, and there is no denying that it is a very feature-rich gimbal. Despite all of the features and pizazz, it’s nice that you don’t need to use any of them if you don’t want to. Zhiyun has managed to still make a gimbal that can be used for both simple and more complicated shots and is versatile to handle a large range of camera and lens packages.

The gimbal itself performs pretty well, but it’s not perfect.

The new latches are a really nice touch, but to be honest, I think they are there out of necessity more than anything else.

The optional electronic follow focus and zoom motors work well, but in all honesty, I’m not sure how many people are actually going to use this. As it only works on a gimbal, it’s not a very flexible product. Don’t get me wrong, it’s great to have, but for me personally, when I use a small gimbal it’s usually with a wide-angle lens where you don’t tend to adjust the focus and zoom that often.

The wireless video and app that allows you to monitor the images from certain cameras and make changes have all been improved by Zhiyun, to the point where it is much more reliable and easier to use. The image quality of the wireless signal is a lot better than it was with the Weebill Lab, but it still has some latency issues every now and then.

In summing up I think Zhiyun has made a reasonably good gimbal that certainly offers pretty decent value for money, although it is a fairly niche product that is not going to appeal to everyone. Its performance as a gimbal is pretty good and the fact that you get so many included features is bound to make it a popular choice for shooters looking for a compact, easy to travel with gimbal that can handle larger camera packages.

The biggest caveat is the weight. Carrying around a gimbal and a payload that weighs upwards of 8Kg is a back, shoulder, and arm breaker.

If you are planning on buying the Crane3S you better hit the gym!

OUR VERDICT

The Crane 3S is a next-generation motorised gimbal stabiliser. It packs in the features and has one of the heaviest payloads for any single hand gimbal on the market. But this is far more than other gimbal stabilisers, and with the modular grip design it can be used in multiple ways; use it on its own to get smooth handheld footage or use as part of a larger rig. However, you use it the Crane 3S is a formidable force for capturing cinematic footage.

SPECIFICATION

Product type: Stabilising gimbal

Max Payload: 6.5kg

Battery life: 12 hours

Feature App : ZY Play

DC-In: Yes

Camera Control: yes

Features

The Crane 3S comes in three different kits with modules that differentiate each. Each of those modules is available separately so you can upgrade from one to the next as required.

The EasySling is the first option and features the gimbal along with an additional handle that can be bolted in for more significant support.

Zhiyun Crane 3S SmartSling

The SmartSling, which is the version I’m looking at in this review, features the SmartSling handle that again bolts into the gimbal and provides the same support but has integrated camera controls.

The Pro kit features the EasySling and SmartSling along with the Servo Zoom and Follow Focus Motors.

Before we look at the features, it’s worth pointing out that each configuration will only work with certain cameras and lens combinations. Zhiyun have a comprehensive compatibility list on their website which can be seen here: https://www.zhiyun-tech.com/search/en

If you have a compatible camera, such as with the Panasonic GH5 then the Crane 3S is a formidable piece of kit, if you own the Sony A7 III then it’s still a formidable piece of kit but you’re are limited to basic camera control and the powerful stabiliser.

At present, the SmartSling and App have compatibility with many cameras including the Nikon D850, Z6, Canon 5D Mark IV, 6D and R, Panasonic GH5 and Sony A7R3. This list is rapidly growing, so do check out the website for your camera.

Basic features

The Crane 3S SmartSling kit includes the main gimbal, mini tripod, SmartSling a few accessories and cables and the free to download app.

One feature that instantly makes the Crane 3S stand out is the maximum payload which is 6.5kg; this compares to the DJI Ronin-S at 3.6kg. This additional payload does one of two things, the first being that it enables you to stabilise far heavier cameras, the second being it’s a little more forgiving.

Zhiyun Crane 3S motor

Unlike other single-handed gimbal stabilisers, Zhiyun has concentrated on comfort. As well as the usual foldable mini tripod base that converts to a grip in use there’s a horizontal grip and then the addition of the SmartSling. This multi-grip design makes the Crane 3S easier to hold than other gimbals, even with a heavy camera and lens combo, although it is heavy.

Adaptability has also been well-considered, and the Crane 3S is one of the few gimbals of this size that can quickly adapt from being handheld to being part of a larger rig or mounted. There’s plenty of mounting options.

As well as the ability to adapt the grips to your needs, the arms and mounts can be adapted to support small and large cameras better. This means that you can use the Crane 3S with a Sony FS7 then switch to a small Sony A7 III mirrorless if you so wish.

The gimbal lock design has also been redesigned compared with the previous version, and this gives more security when being transported.

The Crane 3S is supplied with three batteries that provide power for 12 hours with a 3KG load.

The Crane 3S SmartSling Kit without the camera or baseplate weighs in at 3.08kg.

There is also the option for DC in, which supports the new 25.2v TransMount PowerPlus battery pack. This gives the Crane extended use time to 18 hours and is ideal on professional shoots.

One of the issues that affect many gimbal stabilisers of this type is the effects of high wind and G-Force that reduce the usual stability the Crane 3S would provide. Engineers have worked hard to counteract these forces with an all-new algorithm that promises to enable you to capture smooth shake-free footage however fast the action.

Another feature that has been carefully considered is the 55º tilted roll axis that has been accurately calculated and ensures that you always get a good view of the camera’s screen and have plenty of space to mount cinema, camera lens combos.

When it comes to the mechanics of motion it has a tilt range of 360º, Roll range of 330º with a max of 75º and min of -255º and pan axis of 360º. This gives plenty of flexibility and control.

Mediavine

Other features available with additions

While the SmartSling does have a good level of features, you can further add to the functionality with the addition of modular motors and wifi kit, which are available for an additional cost.

On the side of the gimbal, there’s a built-in focus wheel. To use this, you’ll need those add on servo motors and of course a compatible lens.

Zhiyun Crane 3S review

On the SmartSling there’s also a built-in zoom rocker, again this requires a compatible camera and lens to use.

Another exciting addition that you could add is the CRANE 3S X TransMount Image Transmission System.

This enables you to control and transmit visuals directly from the camera connected gimbal to a smart device. Again check the compatibility for this, and the feature also requires additional equipment.

Then there’s ViaTouch 2.0 which is part of the TransMount system and enables seamless communication between the gimbal, camera and smart device all using the ZY Play app that needs to be installed on a smart device. Again you need the additional kit to take advantage of all the features.

ZY Play App

The ZY Play app is where most of the advanced features reside.

Once your camera is wired into the gimbal, say a GH5, you can then take control of your camera, adjusting the values and some shooting settings as well as starting and stopping recording.

The app also packs in some interesting features such as Panoramic, timelapse and trajectory photography.

Build and Handling

The Crane 3S once assembled and balanced is solid and features the usual three-axis mechanism that enables the motorised stabilisation.

Real attention to detail has been paid throughout the design with independent locks for each axis. These locks help protect the motors and arms during transportation and make it easy to pack away; they’re also used when balancing the camera at set-up.

Zhiyun Crane 3S Easy view of screen

There is little to fault with the manufacture of the Crane 3S other than to say that this is not a small or lightweight piece of kit.

Key features of the design are the axis locks, DC-in on the side, plenty of accessory ports both for digital and physical additions, the SmartSling handle that slots and locks and the variety of other mounting threads, both 1/4 and 2/3-inch giving plenty of options and versatility.

Mediavine

Initial assembly and balancing

As with most motorised gimbal stabilisers, a little assembly is required before you get started, it’s also worth downloading the app, ZY Play.

The first part of the assembly is the mini tripod which bolts to the main gimbal, once screwed in the gimbal can then be placed on a flat surface and the SmartSling slotted and locked in.

Next, dependent on the camera the base plate is bolted on, if you’re using a mirrorless or medium DSLR, then you’ll probably need the riser plate as well.

This additional plate gives the lens a little more space and is required for balancing with smaller cameras.

Once in place, the lens support can be slotted on to the base plate, and the Y section raised to rest against the lens.

It’s worth noting that if you’re using a zoom lens and you intend to zoom in and out without rebalancing, then the zoom needs to be placed at the midway focal length. For an example using a 24-70mm, something around the 50mm is a good midpoint and means that there is less for the gimbal to do to correct the slight imbalance if you zoom in or out0.

Now the baseplate is slotted into the gimbal and making sure the tilt axis is unlocked, you slide the camera back and forth until it finds a balance.

Once the camera balance has been found, the lock can then be secured. Now the tilt axis can be balanced; this involves moving the arm up and down until the camera holds it’s a position.

Next, you repeat a similar procedure for the other two axes. It takes a while to get the hang of it, but Zhiyun has created superb videos that walk you through the process.

The final stage is to connect the cables, and this will differ depending on the camera you have. Again check the compatibility chart on the website to see what functions and features will be available for your camera.

On the Panasonic GH5, most of the features such as focus and camera settings and control are all available, on the Sony A7 III you can only really start and stop recording and take photos. In both cases, you’ll need to ensure that your camera has been updated with the latest firmware.

Now that the camera is balanced and connected, you’re almost set to go. Switch on the gimbal, then the camera, and finally connect the app.

Once the app boots, you need to select the manufacturer through the settings screen, and that’s it, you’re ready to shoot ultra-smooth video or use the app to shoot timelapse and panoramas.

Performance

For the bulk of this test, I used the Sony A7 III with a variety of lenses. The first thing to note is that if you thought the DJI Ronin-S was heavy, then the Crane 3S is another level up.

However, the design of the Crane 3S does give you plenty of handling options, and if shooting for a day, I would recommend a Flycam Flowline or similar.

And that’ss the thing with the Crane 3S, it gives you options, and that’s something that other gimbals just don’t do.

Using the Crane 3S with the Panasonic GH5 was seamless, the two are ideally matched, and the compatibility between the two is incredible.

The gimbal smooths and stabilises the footage, and there’s plenty of control over the settings through the SmartSling.

Switching to the Sony A7 III and the gimbal still works well, although you lose the ability to change settings through the SmartSling, the loss of the LiveView through the app is also a shame but not a deal-breaker.

What does become apparent very early on is that the Crane 3S is very forgiving? Those motors are designed to carry the load of a professional stills or video camera, so a small mirrorless is easily balanced and held.

That leniency does have a limit, and if you hold the gimbal to close to the max or minimum rotations when the camera isn’t quite balanced, you will get a small amount of judder.

During the test I found, especially for low angled shots, that on occasion there was a slight judder from the motors. If this happened, a quick rebalance would quickly correct the issue.

A cruder fix was just to tilt the handle up slightly to give the gimbal a little more room to play. These are user-related issues rather than anything with the gimbal; it’s just that the power of the motors forgives the user being a little lax with the setup.

The results of the stabilised footage are impressive. Handheld and static scenes showed the framing and hold on composition are excellent; there’s a natural smoothness to the look of the footage.

Setting out on a brisk walk and trying to tailor the walk to avoid any bobbing and again the Crane 3S does a great job enabling you to capture smooth professional-looking video with ease.

The final stabilisation test was to take the Crane 3S for a run. Not a long one, as it weighs quite a bit, and here you can see just how impressive those motors and new algorithms are.

OK, the speed wasn’t overly fast, but the terrain was pretty rough, and downhill and you can see just how well the motors work to create a smooth pan.

There is a slight jerk in the footage just after a jump, but the Crane 3S manages to smooth this, so it looks like a small blip, whereas it was me momentarily losing my balance and only just recovering from a possible face plant.

When it came to the stabilising performance, there was little to fault.

However, in use, there are a few things that I did highlight. The main one was access to the joystick under the horizontal handle. The spacing here is tight, and sometimes it can be a little tricky to get the full range of movement that you want.

Also, I would have liked some control on the SmartSling over the motion of the axis, maybe the zoom could operate tilt, and the index finger jog wheel could operate the side to side movement. Still, unfortunately, I couldn’t see a way to customise these buttons and dials in this way.

The final part of the Crane 3S that I have mentioned but not in any depth is the app. ZY Play is used across the Zhiyun gimbals and offers added features for the gimbal as well as adjustments.

The interface is well laid out but does take a little time to orientate correctly. The two main highlights from the app are the timelapse which enables you to capture stunning timewarp style footage and the panoramic option.

The Panoramic setting enables you to set a start and stop point, and then the gimbal works out how many shots are needed and automatically shoots the sequence. It’s a feature that has been common across gimbal stabilisers but nevertheless is still impressive.

Zhiyun Crane 3S review verdict

The Crane 3S is an impressive piece of kit, and what I liked about it was the flexibility. If you’re working solo, then there’s plenty of features that will assist you with the shoot; such as the ability to attach accessories and hook up to additional supports.

It’s also incredibly easy to balance due to those powerful motors and the axis locks help out as well.

Zhiyun Crane 3S grip

The build is solid, there’s nothing dainty or weak about the construction, and it feels like a real workhorse.

That solid build and power do come at a price, and that’s the weight, you do need to be fit to shoot with it unaided for a day, but again Zhiyun has thought of that with all those connection options.

The real test comes down to the compatibility and quality of stabilisation.

On the first point, compatibility is increasing, and already through the test, all cameras that I tried with the gimbal had an acceptable level of control. If all could have the levels attributed to the Panasonic GH5, then that would be amazing. Still, even with just the ability to start and stop recording, take pictures etc as with the Sony A7 III, that was still enough to make this a worthwhile purchase.

The primary function of the Crane 3S is to provide you with a platform for shooting smooth video, and to that end, this motorised gimbal stabiliser excels.

So, yes this is a fantastic product, but who should buy it? For most enthusiasts the price and size will be off putting, it is just above the needs of those just starting out or looking for something for occasional use.

However, if you’re a professional or filmmaker, then the Crane 3S gives you more options than other similar products. Mainly the ability to mount in a variety of ways making it incredibly flexible in use.

Attach the Crane 3S to a Crane, rig, flowline, dolly or any equipment that enables motion, and it won’t let you down.

Handheld some might find it heavy, you’re looking at a minimum of 5kg, but during several tests out in the field, I carried it for well over an hour without issue. The design of the handles makes it easy and comfortable to carry when not filming.

When filming, I could happily control the gimbal position for around five minutes before a quick rest and the more you use it, the more you discover the comfortable positions to hold.

Overall I have to say I was blown away with the quality of the Crane 3S. Its performance throughout was excellent, and for handheld static and motion shots, the quality of the stabilisation was exceptional.

For faster-moving and running shots, the Crane 3S really stood out.

For any professional videographer or filmmaker needing a highly versatile gimbal then there’s really nothing else this good at this kind of size and price.

Shuttleless loom is a new type weaving machine after shuttle loom. Shuttlelss loom distinguishes by right of its light weigh、small vibration、low noise、fast speed and high efficiency, , which occupies the market quickly. Weaving machines are varied.

In response to the grim situation of the domestic economic recession, Brazilian President Rousseff announced on the 24th the "National Export Plan" at the Presidential Palace, aiming to boost economic growth by expanding Brazil economy exports.

Rousseff said that Brazil is the seventh largest economy in the world, but its export revenue is only ranked 25th. She said that encouraging Brazilian economic exports will be an important measure for the government to resume economic growth in order to stimulate the economy, increase competitiveness and increase employment.

To promote exports, the Brazilian government will adjust a series of policies including diplomacy, industry, finance and taxation. Rousseff pointed out that in foreign policy, Brazil will be committed to "prioritizing new markets." She said: "We will reach an agreement with any country and region without prejudice." She also stressed that the negotiations with the EU's free trade agreement will strive to make a breakthrough before the end of the year.

In terms of industrial policy, Brazil will focus on encouraging exports of manufactured goods and services, especially engineering exports. Rousseff said that in view of the fall in international commodity prices, exports of manufactured goods and services are expected to increase the added value of products. To this end, the government will be complemented by a proactive fiscal policy, and the budget for subsidizing corporate exports this year will increase by 30% to R$1.5 billion (about US$500 million). At the same time, the National Economic and Social Development Bank will strengthen export credit.

In terms of tax policy, Rousseff promised to gradually increase the export tax rebate rate of enterprises from the current 1% to 2% in 2017, and will further increase to 3% in 2018.

The report released by the Brazilian central bank on the same day predicts that the Brazilian economy will shrink by 1.1% this year, while the inflation rate will rise to 9%.

According to the Ministry of Commerce, the WTO has released the world trade statistics report. From the global trade volume data, the world trade in goods and services nearly doubled from 2005 to 2015. After a modest rise from 2012 to 2014, world energy prices fell by 45 per cent in 2015. Regionally, Asia, Europe and North America accounted for 88% of the total trade in goods of WTO members, and the share of developing countries in exports increased from 33% in 2005 to 42% in 2015. Meanwhile, trade between developing countries rose from 41 per cent to 52 per cent in a decade. In terms of goods export, in 2015, the export volume of the top 10 countries accounted for 52% of the total export volume, while that of developing countries accounted for 42%. The total export volume of WTO member countries reached 16.2 trillion us dollars. In terms of service trade, the top 10 exporting countries accounted for 53% of the total export volume, developing countries accounted for 36%, and the total export volume of WTO member countries reached 4.68 trillion us dollars.

In 2015, according to the global trade volume data, world trade showed a weak trend -- the total volume of world trade grew at a slow rate of 2.7%, basically in line with the growth rate of world GDP (2.4%). However, as export prices fell by 15 per cent, the value of trade in goods (in dollar terms) fell by 13 per cent to $16 tn. World business services exports were $4.754 billion, down 6 percent year-on-year. The weak world trade in 2015 was mainly due to the economic downturn in China, the severe recession in Brazil, the sharp decline in the price of crude oil and other commodities and the unstable exchange rate. In 2015, the import demand of Asia and resource-based economies slowed down, while that of the us and EU strengthened.

The world trade volume data report said the total value of trade in goods was stable due to a stable dollar and a moderate rise in crude oil prices, but the outlook for the full year was not optimistic.

论文抄袭

在美国留学时， 论文抄袭 是很多学生会误入的雷区。首先，因为英语并不是我们的母语，所以在使用起来并没有那么得心应手，难免会需要参考别人文章的结构和文法，稍有不慎，就会借鉴过度，产生学术不诚实的问题。另外一个重要原因是在上大学以前，我们没有系统学习过如何规范引用他人文献，参考别人的文章时，不知道如何做合适的标记。

然而还有一种特殊情况会令很多留学生倍感委屈，那就是明明你是好心将论文给朋友借鉴，被老师发现以后还要接受处分。今天要分享的S同学案例就是如此，在一次小论文的截止日期前，和她同上一节课的Z同学说自己不太明白教授的要求，想借她的论文参考一下思路。因为是一个班的同学，S同学想能帮就帮他一下，于是便把自己写了一个周的论文发给了他。

没想到的这一个小小的“善举”却给她惹出了大麻烦，论文提交不久她就收到了一封来自Dean邮件，说她的作业论文与别人的相似度为70%，涉嫌论文抄袭，需要和她进一步约谈来判断是否需要开听证会。看到这个消息的S同学一下子慌了神，连忙去找Z同学商量，希望他能够为自己澄清，没想到对方却要逃避责任，选择不去找Dean谈话，而且劝说S同学也不要去，否则会越描越黑，得到的处分更重。

求真助力

进退两难、无法抉择的S同学向求真教育寻求紧急帮助。姚老师在了解了整件事情的前因后果后，建议作为被抄袭者的S同学一定不能放弃和Dean约谈的机会，而且要在聊天过程中占据主动。首先要诚恳地承认自己的错误，其次要完整地叙述事情的真相，解释清楚自己在此次事件中的角色，只有这样才能将对她自己的处分降到最低。

之后，为了让S同学在与Dean约谈时显得更加有条不紊、从容不迫，姚老师和S同学反复进行情景模拟，并提出让她用自己的论文草稿作为辅助证据证明写作过程，争取做到滴水不漏。皇天不负有心人，谈话结束后，Dean觉得S同学态度诚恳、有理有据，所以撤销了对她的处分。

求真寄语

虽然我们有时很难拒绝别人的请求，但是也要把握好分寸，保护自己的权益，避免自己因此受到伤害。 与此同时，万一还是不慎误入困境，一定要记得采取主动，尽快寻找专业机构来获取最有效的解决办法，不要轻易退缩或逃避，最终将事情推到万劫不复的境地。求真教育致力于帮助每一个海外学子完成他们的学业梦想，也在此衷心希望同学们都能够前途光明！文章来源：https://indeededu.com

网课模式开启

由于疫情影响，北美各大高校都宣布停课，留学生纷纷开启了宅家 网课 模式。

而最近很多大学又发布了一条消息：下学期继续提供网课，这也就意味着留学生的网课模式至少要持续到今年夏天。

图源：西蒙弗雷泽大学官方消息

虽然说这也是没有办法的事情，只能寄希望于疫情早日得到控制。但是说到网课，大家都是忍一时越想越气，上一节越想越亏，毕竟，这槽点也太多啦！

★ 你卡，我也卡，大家都卡

每次上网课，最大的难题不是听不懂讲课，而是网络太卡了，老师滔滔不绝的演讲都变成了电音表演，还时不时就掉线，让人有一种梦回2G时代的感觉。

https://cdn.indeededu.com/uploads/2020/04/3-300x70.png 300w, https://cdn.indeededu.com/uploads/2020/04/3-768x180.png 768w, https://cdn.indeededu.com/uploads/2020/04/3-705x165.png 705w, https://cdn.indeededu.com/uploads/2020/04/3-450x105.png 450w, https://cdn.indeededu.com/uploads/2020/04/3.png 1400w" sizes="(max-width: 1030px) 100vw, 1030px" />

但是谁能想到，这些“感觉卡顿”的同学才是幸运儿，被卡到进不去直播间竟然是常态；好不容易挤破了头，却发现进度已经推得飞快，教授开始滔滔不绝讲起了下个章节。

https://cdn.indeededu.com/uploads/2020/04/4-300x222.png 300w, https://cdn.indeededu.com/uploads/2020/04/4-768x569.png 768w, https://cdn.indeededu.com/uploads/2020/04/4-705x522.png 705w, https://cdn.indeededu.com/uploads/2020/04/4-450x333.png 450w, https://cdn.indeededu.com/uploads/2020/04/4.png 1150w" sizes="(max-width: 515px) 100vw, 515px" />

就算今天走运，网络非常流畅，没有掉线情况，网课的进行也需要强大的想象力和脑补能力……真的啥也看不见啊！

★ 你难，我也难，老师最难

且不说这个网络逼“疯”了多少良家学子，上网课这件事本身已经难倒了众多教授。没错，你的教授也许可以轻易解出数学难题，讲解法律条文，甚至给你讲讲逻辑与艺术，但是用电子产品上课，却是渡劫级的难度。

我们要知道，老师们也是很想上好网课的。然而，尽管已经拼尽全力想要好好上课，甚至在门上贴上“上课中 请勿打扰”的标签，没想到还是栽在了各种各样的沟里……

https://cdn.indeededu.com/uploads/2020/04/7-279x300.jpg 279w, https://cdn.indeededu.com/uploads/2020/04/7-655x705.jpg 655w, https://cdn.indeededu.com/uploads/2020/04/7-450x485.jpg 450w" sizes="(max-width: 352px) 100vw, 352px" />

物理课已经快结束了，然而老师还没来？一看发现去了隔壁法学的直播间。

好不容易能上课了，又栽在了设备上：

来自学生的无情拒绝，也成了老师耻辱下播的罪魁祸首：

★ 你鸽，我也鸽，连教授都鸽

为什么大家都不喜欢上网课？很大的原因是形象问题。由于宅在家里不修边幅，很多同学的摄像头里自己是这样的：

https://cdn.indeededu.com/uploads/2020/04/13-300x281.jpg 300w, https://cdn.indeededu.com/uploads/2020/04/13-450x422.jpg 450w" sizes="(max-width: 296px) 100vw, 296px" /> 图源：网络

老师们就更惨了，不仅需要自己演独角戏，他们的网课界面中，学生们表情严肃（呆若木鸡）大概是这样的：

https://cdn.indeededu.com/uploads/2020/04/14-300x211.jpg 300w, https://cdn.indeededu.com/uploads/2020/04/14-450x316.jpg 450w" sizes="(max-width: 461px) 100vw, 461px" /> 图源：网络

在这样的线上授课环境中，很难保证学生们不开个小差，做一些网上冲浪之类的操作，这样上网课，和签了到就走也没什么区别。

对此，细心体贴的老师们为了照顾大家，特地缩短了教学时长。这是什么精神？这是为了学生心理健康着想的划水精神。

https://cdn.indeededu.com/uploads/2020/04/15-300x77.jpg 300w, https://cdn.indeededu.com/uploads/2020/04/15-450x116.jpg 450w" sizes="(max-width: 589px) 100vw, 589px" />

这些槽点估计大家互相之间都吐槽很多遍了，毕竟特殊时期在家待着人类的吐槽本能都被挖掘出来了。

当然，也有的小伙伴因为上网课发现了自家老师不为人知的一面，怪可爱的。

https://cdn.indeededu.com/uploads/2020/04/17-300x58.jpg 300w, https://cdn.indeededu.com/uploads/2020/04/17-450x87.jpg 450w" sizes="(max-width: 463px) 100vw, 463px" />

当然吐槽归吐槽，该上的网课还是要上的，毕竟关乎学分。为此，小伙伴们需要避免一种现象：网课作弊

新冠肺炎疫情在美国蔓延期间，大部分留学生都已经开始了在家上网课的生活。

然而不少留学生在此期间懈怠学业，通过黑心代写、网上搜索答案来应付网课的作业及考试。虽然网课对于学生的课堂、课后参与度大大降低，但是美国大学的高压学术政策却一刻没有放松。

网课期间如果被学校发现有学术不诚信行为，如抄袭、作弊、代写代考，学生处理起来更加需要谨慎。正所谓“塞翁失马，焉知非福”，网课作弊、抄袭在美国大学同样是严重违反学术纪律的行为，一旦被发现，学生将面临严重的处罚。

因为学术不轨被停学、开除的学生不占少数，这不仅涉及到学生身份失效的问题，而且对个人的经历也抹上了一层阴影，对之后重新申请也有不小的影响。求真教育在处理这方面的问题上有着丰富的经验，如果紧急情况一旦发生，请在第一时间联系专业的机构进行处理，往往能将损失降到最低。

★ 求真寄语

虽然现在的情况让大家不得不宅在家里，但这并不能成为你懈怠的理由。在你坚持不住想要“放纵”的时候，提醒自己：别人都在努力。

求真教育愿大家在特殊的社会情况下能够保持初心，尽量习得更多的知识技能，让自己的留学生涯不留遗憾

Spiral pipe, also known as spiral seam thin-walled pipe, was first used in the military industry of Western countries, such as warships, steamships (supply) air system, and later used in trains, subway, mines, and other civilian facilities. By 2000, according to statistics, the application of spiral pipe in office buildings, shopping malls and metros in the United States had reached 95.6%, and the application of spiral pipe in central air-conditioning in residential buildings had reached 72.5%.

The special pipe is a thin-walled pipe with spiral seam made of metal strip coil. It is round, weldless, leak-free and water-free. It is mostly used for air supply and bulk material transportation instead of traditional white iron pipe (i.e. manual seam-biting iron pipe). It is a kind of air duct, full machine straight pipe, without manual knocking.

Its main uses are as follows:

1. Air supply, including ventilation, such as fresh air supply and exhaust, covers a wide range of areas, such as factory workshops and production sites, which need to be discharged outdoors due to the generation of harmful gases, and also need to transport outdoor air to indoors. At this time, it is necessary to use air conveying pipelines with a large flow and low pressure. Spiral pipes are most suitable. Generally, galvanized iron tubes are used, and stainless steel tubes are used in corrosive and especially humid places.
2. Cold air supply. The most common is the central air-conditioning pipeline, which requires insulation materials. The spiral pipe can be insulated with heat preservation material and has a beautiful appearance.
3. Fume exhaust. The kitchens of restaurants, restaurants, and hotels all have a lot of oil fumes, which need to be discharged. The use of circular air ducts is the oil chimney. Here, the spiral pipe should be called lampblack.
4. Dust removal. In some factories, there is a lot of dust in the workshop, and special dust removal devices are needed. The spiral duct can be used in the pipeline with larger air flow.
5. Bulk material transportation. In the production process of some factories, loose particles need to be transported, especially those with a small proportion, such as foamed plastic particles, which use spiral pipe with low cost and good effect.

Because the spiral pipe machine can only produce straight pipes, elbow machines and other equipment have been developed. Among them, the double spiral elbow machine can achieve a high degree of production flexibility by operating at the same time through two individual workbenches: one is the curling workbench, the other is the biting workbench. Therefore, the machine can be used freely at any time without time-consuming conversion. Two workbenches work at the same time. The product is not only beautiful in appearance, but also firm, and light in weight.

Vertical installation of pneumatic ball valve is possible. Generally, installation on pipeline can be divided into parallel installation and vertical installation, which is based on the actual situation of customers. But we recommend that it is generally best to install in parallel, so that it can be easily maintained and it is very beautiful. But in many special cases, pneumatic ball valves can also be installed vertically.

How to install the pneumatic ball valve?

How is the pneumatic ball valve installed? Can the pneumatic ball valve be installed vertically?

Vertical installation of pneumatic ball valves is possible. Generally, installation on pipeline can be divided into parallel installation and vertical ball valve installation, which is based on the actual situation of customers. But we recommend that it is generally best to install in parallel, so that it can be easily maintained and it is very beautiful. But in many special cases, pneumatic ball valves can also be installed vertically. Customers said that the pipeline space of parallel installation is not enough, then it will be installed vertically, which will not affect the service life.

Sealing position of pneumatic ball valve

Pneumatic ball valve seal generally consists of four seals: 1. Stem seal ring 2. Midway seal ring 3. Two seals on both sides. Stem seal ring refers to: seal ring where the valve stem operates, generally with tetrafluoro (PDFE) and flexible graphite; the middle seal ring refers to: the middle connection valve body seal, generally with tetrafluoro (PDFE) and graphite metal composite gasket; the two sides of the seal ring are: the ball core on both sides of the import and export seal ring. It is generally sealed with tetrafluoro (PDFE) and PPL (high temperature resistant sealing ring).

Pneumatic Ball Valve Actuator

The pneumatic ball valve consists of two main parts: actuator and valve. The actuator has two kinds: single-acting and double-acting.

So how to make your pneumatic ball valve easy to use and has long life? The service life of pneumatic ball valves is determined by the on-site use of customers.

To prolong the service life of pneumatic ball valves, the first thing is to keep the gas source stable. The stable gas source can directly affect the speed of the valve switch and the life of the valve sealing ring. It is better to install a couplet on each actuator. This couplet can not only provide stable air pressure, but also regularly refuel the cylinder. It can also discharge moisture from the air, which greatly improves the life of the cylinder. The life of the valve is determined by the medium used in the field.

Professional pneumatic ball valve manufacturers and high quality ball valve will make its life longer. Among various pneumatic ball valve manufacturers, Zeco is the best choice for you. Zeco provides you with high quality pneumatic ball valve products.

The working principle of the automatic beading machine is that the vibration of the machine causes the movement of beads, so that the holes of beads will automatically enter the fixed needle to complete the process of automatic beading.

The maximum characteristics of the automatic beading machine is fast and the movement process of beads is driven by the roller into the conveying plastic pipe. The residence time of beads in the vibration part is only a few seconds, which will not cause any damage to the surface of beads. At the same time, the pin part is a small spring and can be wrapped with soft glue, which will not cause any damage to beads. So the machine is fast and safe for the product. The technology content of automatic beading machine is high, which has higher requirements for manufacturers who have beading machine for sale.

Operation process:

1. Fix the bead-string needle on the bead-string machine first, and string the thread at the tail with it.
2. The beads are poured into the hopper of the conveying part of the beading machine.
3. Open the power supply of the conveying part to let the beads enter the conveying pipeline automatically.
4. Turn on the oscillator switch and let the beads start to work.
5. Open the pin part switch to let the beads move down automatically and complete the bead string operation.
6. When the beads reach a certain amount, open the string and let the beads enter the line.
