Good with Fuji, but packaging incomplete
I use the gimbal in combination with the Fuji XT3 and the 10-24mm lens. It works very well but the gimbal comes so quickly to its limits. The camera also fits so just... with the 18-135mm already no more.
Unfortunately, 3 cables were not included, in particular the TypeC to TRS2.5 what is needed for the control of Fuji camera. Reported this immediately but since then no feedback at all on how to proceed. Will probably have to return it. Very unfortunate.Pro
- Easy
- Easy to use
Contra
- Packaging incomplete
- No feedback from Digitec
Not only joy
The action cam mount is poor, the smaller G6 would be much better!
Pro
- Flexible
- Can be used for several devices
Contra
- Cumbersome
- Balancing the action camera is tedious
- Too little leeway with the action cam mount
Not bad at all
Quite easy to configure, good grip, not too heavy. Quite a lot of possibilities. Quite happy, even if one button seems to suffer from use after only a few months...
Pro
- Easy enough to configure
- Control of the APN via USB
- Correct APP
Contra
- Quality of the buttons
not quite as advertized
The G6MAX cannot balance my Samsung S10e.
The documentation mentions the gimbal can handle smart phones, GoPro and cameras up to 1.2 kg.
The gimbal can handle the S10e, the motors are strong enough to compensate for the lack of balance, but I'm convinced that will have a negative effect on the battery life.
It is a pity FeiYu Tech does not provide a separate mounting plate for the smart phones like Benro does. That would solve the issue.
I tried with a Sony Alpha 6300 and it can balance it without issues.
Pro
- 1.2Kg payload
Contra
- motor strenght needs periodical adjustment
- motor vibration
The stabilizer for smartphones and small cameras
A very good product for small cameras and smartphones. The use is rather simple and intuitive.
The instructions are rather simplistic and an update of the various software is essential before the first use. These updates are done via the smartphone application.Pro
- Weight
- ease of use
- remote control via the smartphone application
Contra
- simplistic instructions for use
