Overview

The Zhiyun-Tech Crane 3S Gimbal improves on previous Crane gimbals with a bunch of changes that users have requested over the years. Here are some of the standout features of this latest flagship handheld gimbal:

  • Upgraded construction with new super motors for a higher payload and higher resistance to winds and G-forces.
  • Re-engineered modular design with a detachable SmartSling handle that's equipped with a more intuitive control panel. Plus, there are 9 different points to mount accessories.
  • Wider compatibility thanks to an expandable arm that can accommodate more camera/lens combos. Plus, a 55° tilted roll axis is integrated for an unblocked view.
  • Greater security with a double lock system that can lock all 3 axes and provide safety when traveling. The new locking system also makes rebalancing easier, as you can prevent excess sway when working on one axis at a time.
  • A revamped image transmission system that supports 1080p30 live streaming with WiFi signals that can be sent to up to 3 devices. A director, a client, and the focus puller can easily be on the same page, each with their own monitoring or controlling abilities. Note: These features require the TransMount Image Transmission Transmitter and Receiver set, which is not included.
  • Improved battery options that allow you to either power the gimbal with the 3 included batteries (12 hour runtime) or attach a Transmount PowerPlus that houses 6 batteries for an 18 hour runtime (not included).

The Zhiyun-Tech Crane 3S Gimbal is an ideal stabilization and motion tool for any filmmaker working alone or in a larger crew. It can adapt to challenging shooting tasks without being too cumbersome to operate right away. Be sure to download the ZY Play app to unlock all the features this gimbal offers.
