FeiyuTech SCORP 2 Kit Gimbal Stabilizer for DSLR and Mirrorless Camera, Built-in AI Tracker,3-Axis Gimbal for Sony/Canon/Nikon/Fujifilm, Max 5.51lbs, Touch Screen, Native Vertical Shooting with Bag

The media could not be loaded. The FeiyuTech SCORP 2 is more than just a refined version of SCORP C (Gen 1) which I had been using since 2022, the built in AI and the upgraded motors make this the perfect gimbal for solo video maker. The AI tracking is one of the best I have come across, accurate tracking means a lot less oops moments when camera is out of frame.The phone app is very easy to use and the graphic interface means you don't need to be a tech expert to use the more advance settings like time lapse and pre set A to B pan shorts. Setting up the camera on the mount is a bit fiddley but you only need to do it once, the quick mounting plate allows the camera to be off the gimbal and back on with just a click. There is also an extra bracket included for vertical mount for 9:16 phone video style for IG, FB and YT shorts videos.The motor is strong and it will handle up to 2.5kg load as long as it is well balanced, there is a list of compatible camera and lens for look up and even tho the motors are working to its limit I managed to mount my Canon EOS R with the 70-200L f4 long lens just to test out the gimbal and it works for slow action like walking and moving about which was a surprise.The carbon fiber extension is extremely light and it feels like part of the gimbal once screw into the base of the gimbal, with the included wide tripod base it is stable enough for low level shots. Battery lasted around 6-7 hours with my EOS R and moving around all the time, it can be used while plugged in for extended use. It takes less then 2 hours to charge with a PD phone charger, we always have full battery by using a PD power bank plugged in between shoots.The hand gesture is one of the function I used the most with the SCORP 2, it pick up hand signs instantly and the Double L shape gesture allows custom framing which is a massive time saving for "one man band" video maker like myself. Just make the Double L hand sign move to where you want to be in the frame and re active the AI tracking and it will track your movements but still keep you in the part of the frame you wanted. Spread Palm to start recording and then same hand gesture to stop, no more back and fort to the camera from my station hundreds of times between shots.Overall I am really happy with my purchase and I am happy with my upgrade from the SCORP C

Excellent quality Gimbal from FeiyuTech made from excellent materials.I am no expert when it comes to gimbals but I have used different gimbal brands in the past so I know the basics.The main feature about this gimbal is the AI tracking this is nothing new in gimbals but I will say this is the best I have personally used and the fact it is inbuilt no extra accessories is needed is a huge bonus. The AI tracking can be activated and stopped using hand gestures you do have to be in the frame and in range for the gestures to work obviously. It is very fast and smooth which is exactly what you want for you footage even when I have walked behind a tree it has detected me on the other side of the tree which is a very nice touch.Another feature I like are the markers what this means you can setup all the balancing perfect, set the markers and when done for the day pack it all away. Then the next time you use the gimbal as long as you are using the same camera & lens you can adjust the sliders to the markers and there is no need to rebalance from start this is a game changer for me why did it take so long for someone to think of this THANK YOU FeiyuTech.I also like the big wheel control on the front of the gimbal you can use this to adjust the tilt and at a press of another button you can switch this to control the panning and also rolls this makes it so muck quicker and simpler to control the gimbal.The display is a bit smaller than I would have liked it to be BUT it is bright and clear to read, FeiyuTech have made very good use of the screen size. And as you would expect these days it is touch screen.The gimbal stabilisation is very good and this is even without me doing the gimbal shuffle/walk another box ticked.My only grumble is with the battery life I am getting about six and a half hours of constant use BUT this is probably down to my skill level and balancing etc BUT currently for me personally this is more than enough time.Overall I am very happy with the gimbal and I would definitely recommend it.

High quality kit which is solid and well made. The fit and finish on everything is impressive to say the least. I honestly was expecting less, but this looks highly robust and like it will last a long time.Feature wise, this is excellent, and offers everything I could want from a stabilising rig and more! I was impressed not only by the smoothness of the gimbal, which performs flawlessly, but also by the tracking feature. I didn't even realise what it was at first, but having used it, it really transforms my ability to produce professional content with relative ease. Combined with a quality camera (and a drone), I think this is pretty much all the modern solo video journalist could want.
