Overview

The Zhiyun-Tech Crane 3 LAB Gimbal improves on the Zhiyun-Tech Crane 2 Gimbal in payload, increased torque, decreased noise, the addition of wireless full HD transmission, and an expansion in overall compatibility. Here are some of the standout features of the Zhiyun-Tech Crane 3:

New Design Details

The traditional single-handle design of handheld gimbals has been reinterpreted by Zhiyun-Tech. It has a new support handle extending from the back and a shortened main handle for easier low-angle shooting. Switching from upright to underslung now just takes a small change in hand position while also giving you the option for two-handed operation. This rear support handle sports an updated control panel with a bright OLED display along with a gimbal joystick. The front of the support handle features a zoom rocker and iris control dial while further down the main handle is a built-in focus dial. Simultaneous zoom and focus is supported with nearly all cameras with the optional TransMount Max Servo Zoom/Follow Controller or Lite Controller (controllers are not included with this rental).

The longer axis and higher payload allows you to use larger cameras than with the Crane 2. Despite this, the Crane 3 can still be folded down into a very portable size. The motors have been reworked to be about 50% quieter than prior models with a huge increase in torque along with a much speedier response time. Another new build detail is the Crafted Latch Design, which provides three separately locking latches for each axis to help make balancing easier. The mini-tripod is removable for attaching the Crane 3 to a tripod or other support rig. Lastly for build features, the joystick has been redesigned to be more tactile and much easier to find and use.

Wireless Full HD Transmission

Monitor real-time footage directly on your smartphone with the built-in wireless transmitter. Remote operation is supported thanks to the ViaTouch Control System that's built into the ZY Play app, allowing for advanced features like follow focusing and object tracking. The image transmission box is located discreetly beneath the camera plate and offers a Mini HDMI port. This is the only gimbal of its class to provide real-time, integrated 1080p image transmission. Included with your rental is the TransMount Phone Holder so that you can easily take advantage of this feature and use your own smartphone as an external monitor.

Expanded Built-In Functions

Mimicking the Sports mode of the Ronin-S, the Crane 3 is equipped with a PhoneGo mode that activates maximum follow speed for fast subjects. Vortex Mode will tilt the camera up 90°. Also available with the Crane 3 are popular automated features like time-lapse, motion-lapse, long exposure time-lapse, and panorama. Motor torque can be adjusted to suit your camera/lens combination needs. Additionally, enjoy all the traditional modes familiar to users of prior models: Pan Following Mode, Locking Mode, POV Mode, and Following Mode.

With a control panel and support handle inspired by the control sticks found in cockpits, along with a unique L-shaped overall design, the Crane 3 is one of the most unique handheld portable gimbal systems around. It is ideal for videographers who need a feature-rich and versatile rig that is still travel-friendly.
