I have just discovered that, when doing indoor shoots (Like for Real Estate) you can get super smooth forward or reverse motion by using a wheelchair. I happen to have a few due to a former issue sitting in my garage, and realized this. I set it at an angle to my waist and use a neck strap, or even jest strap it to the chair, and you essentially have a super cheap track. I shuffle my feet to move the wheelchair if I am in it, or push it if I tether it to the chair. Absolutely zero walking bounce. (you can pick up a cheap travel chair on the used market for next to nothing, and it’ll fold up and snap in your trunk.)

Okay, so setting up my RS2 for a corporate gig and, watching this, the main thing I took away was how far you've come in 3 years. Holy smokes man. This compared to your latest stuff is like night and day. Your growth is major inspiration for me. You are awesome and thank you for always evolving.

The ninja walk. It's a classic. We used to have to walk up and down stairs at uni, holding a book on our head whilst looking through the eyepiece of a camera, that trains you real good!

Thanks for the tips. I felt silly I thought just having a gimbal was enough, but practice makes perfect! I got a lot of work to do!

Honestly, thank u for actually SHOWING and explaining how to do each move with example.

its really awesome especially when your being specific thanks Peter hope to follow your lessons continuously

Your English mess-ups are amazing they actually pulled me back into the content it's like a natural interrupt and it makes you more relatable and entertaining! Thanksnfornleaving them in. Amazing videos man love the lighting and backgrounds in all your videos.

Stumbled into this video while searching for video on using my gimbal. So far this one is hands down the best. Appreciate the tips.

Thanks for ur good suggestions.....that how to use gimbal for new commers.

This video has helped me a lot. I used your link in the comment section to buy the quick release thing. Thanks for that tip, and all the other ideas and tips how to use a gimbal. After watching the whole video, I rewatched some parts just to get the idea. Wish you well.

foreground tips is the best tip for me it`s game changing tips thank you so much Peter.

i am from ethiopia, i like the way you present....i like your color grading ...i like your studio ...it is really a nice tutor.

I watch a lot of your videos and even when I'm watching something new that I already knew how to do, it's still awesome to hear someone more talented than myself reinforcing these techniques.

This is the first video of yours I have watched - the thumbnail grabbed me in and was just the type of content I am looking for as I'm new-ish to gimbals. Great videos! Definitely subscribing. Your humor is *chef's kiss* perfect. Had me rolling a few times for sure. Thank you for the great content!

Bro, you crushed it here with these tips. Keep up the awesome work Peter!

Purchased my Ronin SC this month and stabilized it(finally!). I'll be using all of your advice to create some interesting content for my channel. Thanks Peter and keep up the great work!!

Some good tips! I think I saw somewhere that when walking forwards and doing the ninja walk that it also helps to angle the gimbal forwards too so it can help take a little more shake out of the movement - whereas holding straight up accentuates the shake and prevents the gimbal countering it...,

Good stuff man, still very relevant. The gimbal walk is super tiring. Was completely worn out following my kids around for 15-20 mins.

From the USA, thanks for your suggestions, miss Gothenburg!

Just got the DJI RS2 and really needed this video! Thanks

Watching you work on your gimbal makes me feel that I can do it as well.. benro Red Dog R1 user here..

Great lesson in Gimbal usage. I don't have one in fact I have a 10 yr old camera that was about 100 when I got it but your vids make me want to get some equipment to experience your art form! Thanks for the video!

Still useful today. Thank you for the tips!

Tack för tipsen. Den här video kommer att hjälpa mig mucket. 👍🏼

Cheers so much I appreciate all your know how 😊 In a recent tutorial someone recommended ditching the ninja walk altogether and learn to walk heal toe like we’re naturally meant to ❤

Super tips of setup and execution to shoot dope shots 🙂

Dope video dude! 🔥 I’ve been watching all your videos this week and all of them are so inspirational for me.

I had never used a DSLR gimbal before and bought the Ronin S which took me f*****g ages to balance it! Maybe it was just me.... FYI my new EOS R arrived and I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!

Honestly, thank u for actually SHOWING and explaining how to do each move instead of just showing us the end result

I've just purchased my first DJI RS Gimbal and I enjoyed your easy to understand, down to earth tutorial! Going out to practice my Gimbal walk!lol. Peace from New Zealand!

Dude THANK YOU for explaining the manual focus wheel dollying forward. I’ve always wondered with shots where you move forward or back where you’d have to grab focus again- what do you do??? Thank you!

I also just got my first gimbal and this is probably one of the most useful videos I've stumbled upon I'm totally subscribing

I have a school project for an interview and we have to use the ronin s and i am definitly going to try some of these tricks! Thank youu!!

Literally one of the most helpful videos on KZfaq . Many thanks !

This was very helpful bro just got my first gimbal and now I have a few shots to add to my catalog.

Thank you for sharing this information. I need a Gimbal and knowing how to set it up will really help.

Gimbal walk, = duck walk. I got a Sony A9 and the Ronin SC. Heavy all together. Im 60 and your not (joke). I am not going to talk about any crouching shots. One thing I want to do is get an extension rod to screw in, in place of the tripod extension. something longer so I will have better leverage. Good tips there Alpha Male with the big guns! keep it up. I subscribed.

Just started out! Thanks for your info, part of the family now. Like your youtube style and your sence of humor :-)

New KZfaqer from Bangladesh 🇧🇩 i am learning eachday from your videos. Very helpful. And happy to say i just bought a gimble😍😍

precis beställt min första gimbal, tack för superbra tips!

I got my first gimbal in 2024 a used Ronin SC. Thanks for these amazing tips. Because everyone else said you gotta go slow motion and you didn’t. My A6400 doesn’t even support 4k slow motion

Thank you, love your videos, learning lots from them, I only have a Samsung s7 at moment👍

Awesome video man. I got a Ronin S about a month ago and I just spent a few days practicing balancing... after that I need a lot of practice. So far I use it a lot to shoot myself for this commercial I’m working on and I picked it up from your beer video 😎 thanks to you this project I’m working on is a little easier. 🍻💪🏼

Sir, definitely the best video about shooting vith gimbal, thank you a lot, it really helps me figure out some shots, which I wanted to shoot, but they didn´t look as great as now, have a nice day

Thank you Peter!!

Great tips. Jag vandra mycket i terräng så jag har inga fina bryggor att gå på. Det blir till att böja på knäna och se upp för rötterna :-)

Great tutorial am loving it Gotta start practice Bless up

Just got our DJI RS2 gimbal. Going to try try these tips and moves now! Thanks for the video.

Very helpful. Thank you 👊

Thanks for the practical advice. Like many other viewers, I just bought a gimbal and now I know a little. ore about how to get those juicy shots. Thanks, man!

Peter, could you do a tutorial on how you do that digital text effect that comes in at 2:18

Thanks you very much Peter for all the advices.

Thanks for all the inspiration you give us with your videos to learn Peter. Greetings from Bogotá.

I don't know if you are the same Peter Lindgren from Opeth, but if not, I found another Swedish (or Scandinavian) Peter Lindgren to admire. Being of Swedish ancestry myself and growing up in the United States in a very NON-Scandinavian state (New Jersey), I always appreciate the forced Swedish Chef accent, which clearly you are good at. Also, thanks so much for the awesome information. Always love to learn a few new gimbal techniques. Cheers and Rock On!!!

I had to come back to this Video. Needed some inspiration and a refresher. PL you are deeply appreciated.

Great video sir! I like your relaxed style

Thanks for the information, very nice explained. Wish you a nice Sunday and best regards John;)

Gimbal shot very useful thanks a lot.

B R I L L I A N T mate, thank you for producing this video. I love that smartphone app control. Wow, that map of the World with the LEDs in it on your background wall is SUPER AWESOME. Well done to you for everything you are doing here on your channel and I wish you every success. I have a Zhiyun Crane 2 & a new GH5 looking forward to filmmaking using these two together. Cheers from Western Australia

Nice, thanks for your idea

Nice one dude!!! By the way the walk is called ''The ninja walk''

I was just looking at a DJi ronin s gimbal and then seeing your video explaining a lot of points from how to handle it and what works I was like I need to buy me one even though I already have a DJi Osmo Mobile 3 which I am still learning.

I'm so happy I found your channel. Great info. Keep up the great work.

Thank you so much for these techniques. I can’t wait to apply them to my next videos. Once again another killer tutorial, I appreciate it my man 💪

Love your videos brother. I'm a Sony shooter too, starting with my a6300 and I was struggling to find a videographer that I liked his style in Sony. Love your videos. Hope you can make more about video editing from start to end like a mini series of the whole process. Thanks and much love from NYC.

Thanks Bro great advice.

Probably one of the most loveable youtubers out there. Keep it up man!!

Hey peter! Thanks a lot.. u taught me one of the most important thing i wanted to learn at present.. I'm going use it in my short film.

Hi friend I just got the Ronin SC and these tips will help a lot. Thank you. Pura Vida. ☀️🌋🌴☕👍🏻

Thanks Peter. Got my first gimbal and was lost for a while but now I'm gonna practice silly-walks ;)

Thanks! Being new to working with a Ronin-S I appreciate your advice.

Super helpful. Thanks Peter! Subscribed.

Thank you! I'm working with the Ronin S and Canac EOS Rebel 7....Your tutorial really helped out a lot!

Hej hej Peter 😎 Nice footage, you made there! In Gothenburg, Eriksbergen, if I'm not mistaking. Why I only now came across your channel, is a mystery to me, but your explanations and examples are a great help for an amateur, like me. You've got a new subscriber from the Netherlands. Keep up the good work! 👍

If I could state onne gripe, it would be that you switch the picture-in- picture with the full size; and sometimes the full size is your example, and other times the picture-in-picture is your example. So basically when we're watching we're e not sure which screen is more important to follow for what you're explaining

The man the myth the legend, always producing straight fire!

that fast release plate is DOPE! amazing man thanks a lot!

Just got my Ronin S, and this video was super helpful. Thanks, Peter! Best of luck for the remainder of 2020.

Close to 60k now your channel is growing faster than my wifi

Hi Just caught your video and the iphone app trick at 00:23 was incredible - heaps of good advice - I'm learning how to best use a new gimbal so this video well appreciated

Thanks Peter for taking the time to make such a helpful and informative video. Still getting used to my new gimbal
