Product Description

Crane 3S

Different types of shooting environment require both high capacity and flexibility of shooting equipment. The original CRANE 3 LAB is the first generation of gimbal with built-in image transmission. Bearing filmmakers in mind, ZHIYUN felt it can be even better to adapt to strict and unpredictable filming environment. The new CRANE 3S built on a heritage of innovation with brand new modular design, which aims for wider application and intuitive control.

Extendable Roll Axis. Greater Flexibility

Overall great gimbal. This bad boy can fit any setup you throw at it. For cinema cameras make sure you add on the extension arm. When you add that you can fit v-mount batteries or anything your heart desires. The only con is it's very bulky and heavy if you use it by itself you will fatigue pretty fast so attach it to a ring, or vest setup so you can hold it for longer video shoots.

Packaged well, lightning fast shipping, the product arrived with the instructions on how to set the gimbal up. I would definitely recommend setting a entire weekend aside to get comfortable with it. Setup for me took some time, getting my camera on it, balancing, and calibrating the gimbal. On top of charging all the battery and installing the accessories that comes with it. The amount of features and settings Zhiyun has put into this product is nothing short of amazing. The gimbal can without a doubt hold and support my entire rig on it! Smooth and beautiful shots! From the test run that I did get shots on. Being fit is a honest recommendation because my rig isn't light and putting it on a gimbal doesn't make it lighter. Zhiyun came through with this with affordability.Equipment used:SONY A7S III w 24-70mm G master, smallrig rhino cage w/ top handle and side grip. Saramonic shotgun mic, feel world 4k monitor, and VB155 V mount battery. That's some weight and long story short. This gimbal holds it with no problem.

Very Nice Crane. Works just as intended. I did however return it. Not because it didn't work great... because it did indeed work terrific... But I decided to Buy the Newer Model, The ZHYIUN Crane 4. Which is a bit more expensive. So if you want something slightly cheaper than the Crane 4. The Crane 3S is for you. Don't hesitate. It will get you the results you are looking for.

Un produit d'une efficacité redoutable rien à dire en revanche le service après-vente n'y est pas, car j'ai eu des câbles en moins et le vendeur malheureusement ne m'as pas renvoyé les câbles manquants c'est un peu dommage pour ce prix de rechigner juste sur les câbles

Lo Zhiyun Crane 3 S probabilmente è il miglior gimbal in circolazione per rapporto qualità prezzo.A differenza di un marchio diverso è basato su un'impugnatura a due mani , questo rende tutto meno faticoso e pratico.Testato su produzioni di diverse ore sempre in movimento e posso confermalo.La capacità di sostenere 6,5kg da modo di montare dalle mirrorless alle camere piú grandi con facilità.Le varie modalità in tutti gli scenari consentono un lavoro fluido e pulito e le batterie difficilmente vengono sostituite per la loro grande durata.L'impugnatura con joystick e schermo Lcd consente collegando la camera al gimbal tramite Usb la possibilità di utilizzare il fuoco manuale senza l'uso di follow focus esterno , di variare diaframma e tempi di esposizione.Un ottimo prodotto robusto che riesce a soddisfare qualsiasi necessità.

I have a bmpcc 6k pro with a cage and nato side handle grip (mainly because sometimes i want to go handheld quickly without completely changing my set up. The fact that this is one of the few gimbals that has enough space and can take enough weight makes it perfect. Now is it a gimble you hold with two hand? no lol but its still reasonable if you dont mind a little extra weight for convenience.

Ce stabilisateur est une révolution pour les amateurs de belles images.De part sa qualité de fabrication (matériaux très solides) et sa capacité de charge maximale (6,5kg!), vous avez la possibilité de monter presque n’importe quelle caméra, même avec une monture conséquente !Et c’est cet argument, principalement, qui m’a convaincu d’acquérir le crane 3s pro.Le colis est bien emballé et livré avec de nombreux accessoires.Parmi eux, le système de transmission d’images (récepteur à part) de très bonne qualité et qui prend en charge le focus Assist.On apprécie également la possibilité d’alimenter le stabilisateur et les accessoires via la batterie V-lock fournit (avec 6 piles rechargeables qu’on peut mettre directement dans le stabilisateur pour éviter du poids supplémentaire).Les différents modes de stabilisation sont à la page quant aux différents stabilisateurs présents sur le marché (dont le mode vortex apprécié pour la réalisation de clips).Il est également possible d’adapter le crane 3s pro sur n’importe quelle machinerie externe (grue ou car mount dans mon cas) avec un simple pas de vis. Pas besoin d’acheter un kit externe d’adaptation.Notons que le stabilisateur est livré dans une mallette de transport très solide et pleine de rangement.Vous pouvez le ranger en version de base ou en version d’extension : pas besoin de démonter le bras pour les grosses caméras !Enfin, j’aurai préféré peut-être des boutons de meilleurs qualité... mais ceux-ci sont fonctionnels et n’altèrent pas l’utilisation du stabilisateur.Si vous avez des questions, le service client est visiblement très disponible et vous conseille de manière détaillée. C’est plutôt rassurant !Je penses que c’est un outil destiné aux professionnels / semi professionnels qui cherchent à élargir leur parc afin de proposer des contenus de qualité.Ce stabilisateur vous oblige à prendre votre temps lors du montage (équilibrage minutieux), ce qui est une bonne chose quand on aime le travail bien fait.Faites-vous plaisir, c’est un produit révolutionnaire !

I'm not a first time gimbal user. However...I am a first time Zhiyun gimbal user.I just received my 3S today, and what can I say?The setup was fairly straightforward. I would definitely suggest reading the instructions and watching a few YouTube instructional videos prior to attempting it, though, especially if you've never handled one of these before.The first thing I did was update the firmware. Hooked it up to my desktop and it updated flawlessly!Then I threw on my Canon Eos R and got it balanced. I especially like the locks on this unit. They make the balance and setup way easier than some other brands out there.Then I turned the unit on and put it through the paces. Up, down, all around. Fast movements, wide swings; I threw everything at it. I'm not gonna lie; at first I had some slight wobble from a few lower angles. Sat it down, fine tuned the balance and the wobbles disappeared, even with some pretty aggressive swings! So, my advice is to be patient and take your time on the initial set up!The phone app is a little tricky. I had some difficulty keeping the connection (however, this may be because of my phone....I'll have to do some more testing on that to see...).All in all I'm very impressed.I do want to say, however, that I'm most impressed with the customer service I received from Zhiyun. They checked in on me right out of the gate to make sure I was satisfied with the gimbal. This company went out of their way to make sure they had a satisfied customer. And they do.I'll say this.....I am now a Zhiyun guy! Between the sturdy equipment and the stellar customer service I'll be buying from them again!I'll update this review as I go...maybe throw on some videos of it in action, as well as keep you informed of the features as I check them out. But, I'm pretty confident I'm going to remain pretty satisfied!
