This gimbal is incredibly user-friendly, allowing for quick setup and operation, which is perfect for both beginners and seasoned videographers.One of the great features is its AI tracking capability, which accurately follows movements, making it ideal for dynamic shooting scenarios. The battery life is impressive as well, lasting up to 18 hours under "optimal" conditions, ensuring I can shoot all day without worrying about recharging.The build quality is solid, and it comfortably supports my Samsung S24 Ultra, even with additional lenses attached. The various shooting modes, including Inception mode, offer creative flexibility that enhances storytelling.Overall, the Hohem iSteady M6 is a fantastic investment for anyone serious about creating smooth, cinematic videos. Great performance, features, and value for money!

I picked this up for the "Amazon day" price of about 130 quid (which is roughly what it can often be bought for elsewhere) after checking a couple of things with the manufacturer, who were *very* responsive and helpful - indeed, their helpfulness persuaded me to buy it straight away. (A manufacturer who instantly answers questions from someone who isn't even a customer yet gets a huge thumbs-up from me.)What I'd wanted to know before purchase was whether a mobile phone was *necessary* for the thing to work. For anyone wondering the same, it doesn't need a phone, or an app, it works fine totally stand-alone. If you can attach it, and it weighs 600g or less, you can use this to stabilise it. 600g is a fairly hefty phone. The phone holder is adjustable for balance, and it also has a 1/4" female tripod thread for attaching a small arm, mic, or some other non-phone thing (like an action cam, say). There's another tripod thread socket on the 2nd axis arm end, and another on the side of the handle, and a fourth on the bottom of the handle (so you can mount the whole thing on a tripod or rig).The phone mount part is not the easiest to adapt to an arbitrary small camera, but a 3D printed "phone-like" plate with a regular 1/4" screw would do the trick.The stabilising parameters are optimised for an average weight phone. With no load on it (i.e. a really light payload) it tends to vibrate a bit - if you're using it with an SJCAM or something and you get this, just add a bit more weight.The movement is smooth, the device feels (very) decent quality. If using the supported phone camera app, then the follow focus and so on works fine. The "record" button works like a typical bluetooth shutter release so you should be able to start/stop other cam apps.If, like me, you were wondering what the "inception" mode is, it's a thing where it continuously pans through 360 degrees - like in the film "inception", doh. Apparently gimbals all need that, these days.Other modes are arguably more useful for general film-making, though. Default is "pan follow", a kind of partially locked mode where it stabilises (really well) in roll and pitch but the camera follows any pan movement you make with your hand. There's also a fully-locked mode which attempts to keep the camera pointing the exact same way regardless, and a "pan and tilt follow" mode where the camera is only locked for roll.The camera pan and tilt can be offset in any mode using the little joystick. The trigger will re-zero it. The OLED display is clear and informative.There's even a programmable camera movement feature where you set the start and end positions using a couple of buttons and then it will move smoothly from start to end over a settable time.If you're the kind of person who likes to shoot in "portrait" mode (ergh!) then it will do that, too.It has a fairly substantial battery inside, and it will charge your phone or power your GoPro if need be. A nice curly cable for this is included. Also included is a thing that functions either as a handle extension or a mini tripod stand - handy for the auto re-calibration feature.The base kit that I got doesn't include it, but there's a magnetically attached accessory subject-following camera thing that can be fitted on top, and obviously lights etc. can be fitted.Although I was keen to be able to use this with an action cam, in fact, modern phone video camera performance is remarkably good.OK, you're not going to get the authentic look of a fast prime lens on a movie camera if you're shooting with a phone. And phones, action cams, compact system cameras and DSLRs are all typically terrible when it comes to audio. But stick a phone on one of these gimbals and record sound on a compact digital recorder with a decent mic and you could make very passable movies, given sufficient skill. It's hard to get steady shots and smooth. camera movements hand-holding a phone, but this thing improves it dramatically.In summary - I recommend this device, it is well thought out, feels solid and well-made, works really well, and even the associated camera app (needed to make use of the follow focus control) isn't bad.

Pros:_______• Smooth as Butter: Seriously, this thing is like magic for shaky hands like mine. It gives you the smoothest videos ever. Even when I'm walking or capturing fast-moving stuff, it's like I've got my own little movie studio.• Balancing Made Easy: You know how some gimbals make you feel like you're solving a Rubik's Cube just to get it balanced? Well, not this one. A quick tweak here and there, and you're good to go. Saves me so much hassle.• Handles the Heft: I've got a big, heavy phone (iPhone Max), and this gimbal handles it like a pro. No wobbles or struggles, it's rock-solid.• Battery for Days: The battery life is awesome. I can shoot for ages without worrying about it conking out on me. No more mid-shoot charging stress.• AI Tracking Wizardry: The AI tracking is surprisingly sharp. It keeps your subject in the frame, no matter how much they're darting around. Perfect for those action-packed shots.• Built to Last: You can feel the quality. It's robust and has that pro vibe. Plus, the included case is a sweet bonus for keeping it safe when I'm on the move.• Friendly App: The app is super user-friendly. Even tech newbies like me won't get lost. They've even got handy tutorial videos to guide you.• Roll Wheel Love: That roll wheel is a tiny feature but a big deal. It makes adjustments a breeze.• Optional Light Attachment: You can even add a light attachment. It's a lifesaver in low-light situations. Trust me, you'll appreciate it.Cons and Oks:_______• Upside Down Quirks: When you flip it upside down, it's not flawless. There are some minor hiccups. So, if you're into a lot of upside-down shots, be ready for that.• Light Not Mega Bright: The included light is decent, but it's not crazy bright. It's good for most situations, but when it's super dark, you might wish for a bit more glow.Bottom Line:In a nutshell, the Hohem iSteady M6 smartphone gimbal is a total winner. It turns your shaky phone videos into smooth, pro-level shots. Super easy to balance, handles heavy phones like a champ, and the battery lasts forever. The AI tracking is impressive, and the app is newbie-friendly. Just a heads up, there are some quirks when you flip it upside down, and the included light could be brighter. But all in all, it's a solid investment for taking your video game to the next level.Overall: Smooth, professional-quality videos with any phone you have.Hope I was a help to you.Love,Honest Reviewer

📦 Déballage et premier coup d’œil :Niveau packaging, c'est très bien présenté et cela donne le sentiment d'avoir un beau et bon produit à l'intérieur. A l'ouverture, la sensation se confirme car la qualité et la finition sont bien présentes. C'est un bel outil c'est une certitude. Mais passons au test maintenant !👨🔧 Test :◾ contenu : le stabilisateur, l'étui coqué de transport/rangement, un trépied pliable, une sangle, un câble de chargement, un câble USB-C vers USB-C et le mode d'emploi.◾ à quoi ça sert ? : un stabilisateur est idéal pour les vloggers, les live-streamers, les vacanciers et les cinéastes qui souhaitent créer des contenus fluides et stables. Pour résumé, il supprime les mouvements brusques et le mouvement du corps qui n'apparaissent pas sur la vidéo.◾ poids : il est de 551g ce qui veut dire qu'avec le poids supplémentaire du téléphone on s'approche du kilo et il faut donc de la force pour l'utiliser durant de longues minutes.◾ utilisation : pour commencer je rassure tous ceux qui ont peur d'avoir affaire à un outil technologique difficile à paramétrer et à prendre en main. C'est accessible même aux non initiés ! Il faut juste recharger le stabilisateur, placer sa caméra dessus, puis l’allumer. Il faudra aussi télécharger l’application et procéder à un étalonnage si nécessaire. Avec ce stabilisateur, fini les tremblements qui gâchent une vidéo car il stabilise sur 3 axes ! Niveau autonomie, il est équipé d’une batterie qui peut durer jusqu'à 18 heures. Il y a un petit écran bien utile pour vérifier en temps réels les réglages utilisés. Enfin, j'apprécie la présence de 4 ports pour permettre la fixation de un ou plusieurs accessoires.📊 Bilan :⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐5 étoiles pour ce stabilisateur premium, puissant et avec une belle autonomie.

スマホ用のジンバルって結構簡易なモデルが中心でしたが、コイツはカメラ用レベルで取付部をスマホクランプにした形のハイエンド品ですね。 耐荷重400gという殆どのスマホを余裕で対応するシステムで、一般的な200g台のスマホは余裕でぐるぐる回せます。 余裕がある分だけコントロールでの動きがスムーズになってます。 センター調整もちゃんと出来るので、スマホの位置で調整する必要がないのでオプションマウントなどでバランスがずれていても変な位置にスマホをずらす必要無し(スマホのUSB-C直挿しガンマイクを付けて重量バランスがずれていてもクランプ自体は中央のままで本体側の調整で対応可能) また、カメラのコントロールケーブルの様にケーブルを繋げるので回転でケーブルが絡まる心配低め。 操作はダイヤルとスティックがあるのでスムーズな追従が可能です。 三脚穴はクランプのプレート側部とグリップサイドにもあるのでここにアクセサリマウントが可能、距離の長い撮影でのビデオライトやガンマイクなどもOKですね。 ただ、本体部分のマウントは自由な首振りでの撮影には出来ないので、基本的にはブレ取りのみでの場合だけ使える感じになりますので、クランプ側の穴でライトorマイクのいずれかか、拡張アダプタな別途準備などで対応ですね。 値段的にエントリーモデルとそこまで違いは無いけど、機能性としては大きな違いがあり、端的に言ってコスパが非常に高い良アイテムですね。 本キットにはAI追尾ユニットが付いてませんが、別途購入で追加出来ます。 本体が良かったので中華通販で取り寄せましたが9000円位しました。 必要になるなら付いてるセットモデルを買った方がトータルではお安いです。 この追尾ユニットは磁石取付式で前向き、後ろ向きを自由に反転して装着できます。 ライトとしてもスマホ本体LEDよりは十分明るいライトでCCT/RGB切替が出来て本機の左ダイヤルで操作可能です。 そして、このユニットは単体でAI追尾が出来るのでアプリ導入無しに顔追従が可能となります。 スマホホルダにGoProをマウントするアダプタも出回っているので、組み合わせることで本機でアクションカム顔追尾をしたり出来るし、専用アプリであるHohemJoyを使わずに他の配信アプリを使用したままでも顔追尾が可能です。 海外のウェビナーなどの様にステージ上を歩き回ってアピールする様な撮影を一台で行う事が可能ですので、撮影要員が準備できないスモールビジネスや配信者はセットモデルも検討すると良いと思います。

Ich bin von der Qualität und dem Lieferumfang zu dem Preis wirklich sehr positiv überrascht. Ich habe es zuvor mit einen DJI Gimbal (Mobile SE) versucht, der war wie ein Spielzeug im Vergleich zu dem Hohem M6. Die Haptik des Hohem M6 ist wirklich sehr gut, das Gerät fühlt sich sehr hochwertig an und liegt gut in der Hand. Die Einrichtung und Verbindung mit der Software ist kinderleicht. Die Software läuft im Zusammenspiel mit meinem Pixel 7 Pro wunderbar, es gibt keine Hänger, Verbindungsprobleme, Abstürze ... Zudem erfüllt die App alle Standards und ist im Gegensatz zu mancher Konkurrenz über den Play Store erhältlich und nicht per APK über dubiose Kanäle. Geliefert wird alles auch noch in einem schönen und robustem Case. In meinen Augen ist der Hohem M6 ein top Produkt, in seiner Klasse. Ich habe nichts zu meckern. Jetzt kann der Spaß beginnen. Gruß
