Smooth Q is a smartphone gimbal to smooth out your videos. You can also take photos with it so you don’t get camera shake when you’re taking pictures and some of the advanced features on this which I’ll go through shortly that you can produce motion time-lapses. You can also do slow motion.

There Are Loads Of Things That You

can do with a smartphone gimbal. These days so on the front you’ve got a nice little thumb pad control and it’s got a joystick control lets left/right. You’ve got a zoom in and out you’ve then got a start/stop record or take photo button. The mode button goes through three modes. So once you’ve got the phone setup in there make sure that you do get the Aegean plate app that’s going to go through this setup of this there you go so once you power the gimbal on it’s going to reduce the motion of you twisting and when you move up and down like that it’s basic mode.

Hes Gonna Keep This Angle Straight

so if you’re following up and down the wall from the floor to the wall, it’ll keep that angle absolutely straight in that mode. I’d say there are three modes to go for so we can go into the second mode and that means now that it’s going to actually keep that angle the same with you move it left to. right where’s before remember the twisting action actually turned it and that well so in every action now it’s going to keep the camera roughly where it was and then the next mode that basically gives you full control of wherever you’re looking up and you can obviously use this thumb control as well to move up down pan left and right and twist it around that way. Like so then you can use the zoom controls on there and they take a picture start recording or that kind of thing works as well grip wise. You know it’s okay it’s kind of shaped your questions try asking tell me a tiger if I it’s a little more about them.

The Hand.

Grip is quite comfortable so you get a little raised bit there where you’re sort of thumb area would sit and the back there again. It’s kind of raised where you your fingers going to settle the back there. So in my hand sits quite well if I flip it over and I go for a left-handed and then that’s fine as well. You know it feels fine there’s no weight the extra bit down there and it doesn’t feel like it’s gonna get heavy any time soon quality wise it feels quite good quality yes it’s it’s plastic, but it’s okay kind of quality plastic and this bit is all metal so that feels quite sturdy but the handle is with plastic the batteries only rechargeable.

You Cant Change The Battery Out

like you come on some others, but the battery only takes kind of like an hour to charge and gives around about full days with 4 to 6 hours of usage so that’s quite good too it will actually look straight. down so that’s where it stops so a bit better than the other one as well The UK one wouldn’t look any more of them probably around about. There wouldn’t look down anymore than that so the fact that goes all the way to there it’s pretty good too just keeps going around, whereas the utmost my mobile would just stop let’s say wants to do object tracking on this little tree plant so object track draw a box around it. It’s locked it in you get little dots around there so it’s locked it in so no matter where we move this to now and what’s really good is keeping this in focus as well so that works quite well object tracking is quite good now. We should have some options for time lapses and things like that on there as well so you have you got onion photos.

Side Of Things Youve Got Single

panoramic long exposure and obviously then you’ve got countdown as well UK offs or single straight shot so if you take a picture you can wait two seconds, then it will take it that kind of thing. If you chew into video mode. The video options then change so you can have slow motion and you can have a time lapse mode where it obviously just sits there and just records and then basically kind of just plays it back as a time lapse. I won’t just play it back in real time and then you’ve got a moving time lapse which basically allows you to set up locations. So for example, if I want to move this there and say I want that number one and then move it like that I want that to be number two and then move it over.

There To Be Number Three And Then

down there and over at the plant to put that one let’s see and then come back to central. When it’s finished and then you click on next. You tell it the frequency so once every thirty of a second or thirty-second duration that kind of thing and then it’s going to tell you how long it’s going to take it. So This one’s a 30-second to generate video so it’s simply just going to keep moving around all on its own. There we go We go so if you do want to capture something of a motion time-lapse, you know maybe it’s kind of like commuters at a railway station or traffic going around a roundabout and you want to pick out certain spots that’s gonna be busy at certain things or people queuing up for you know a food truck or something like that then that will allow you to do those types of things again.

These Features Are Quite Common On The

high end sort of the other details more mobile so something at this price bracket that does exactly the same you know that costs like us in half and it is an astonishing really it’s doing exactly the same as using the camera on your device. You know essentially all you’re paying for in the tech is these motors and the control and software behind it that tell the motors. to do and how to move around and that kind of thing it certainly does smooth out all the action of walking around so a lot of people have been saying that there’s no button on the back there like there is with the UK Osmo so my top tip. If you want to quickly go to selfie mode, find your zoom button and just flick it up, keep it flicked up.

Its In Selfie Mode.

If you want to go back keep it looked up and its back in front camera mode and another top tip here as well is if you want to swap between the front-facing camera and the back one that’s great what happens if you want to swap between movie mode and photo mode well that’s the opposite way so the top holding it there with the zoom controlled flipped between front camera and rear. camera and holding the zoom down to the bottom floats between picture mode and video so they were on video mode wait a second we’re on picture mode so by using the zoom control like that and holding it in certain ways. Then you get lots of extra little features with it as well the fact that it’s got a quarter inch mount at the bottom there so you can mount it to a tripod so now with this little tripod attachment at the bottom Oh wow look at that it stabilizes itself in every way now thanks very much for watching my video today.
