I am sold on the Weebill, 15% because of the good technical demonstration portion and 85% from the laughter and pure joy from this experience. Thank you for the amazing writing.

Philip, I apologise if you are a well known cinematographer however your name wasn't familiar to me. But this is, hands down, without question, the best produced gadget review I have ever had the pleasure to watch. And good effort from your fellow Camera Gear Review clan.

".....cinematic. *sigh-face*". Brilliant. Really love your videos Philip. They're as hilarious as informative. A tip for gripping these gimbals (I have the original Weebill Lab) is to use both the "underslung" grip and bottom grip even in upright mode. I use the Manfrotto Pixi up top to control the grip angle. Keeps it at a nice level and close to the body, putting less stress on the back, which honestly is more important for long periods of use. I used this on a two day hike and carried it pretty much the entire time on the move. And I don't think I could've done it with the... ronin grip. Beacause I'm no samurai-guy.

Does this model suffer from the random x screen of death that renders your gimbal useless like the regular weebil lab or have they solved that probalem? Iam really on the fence about the feiyutech ak2000 S vs the weebil S heard mostly problems from the original weebil. I have allways used feiyutech so iam a little weary of trying a different brand.
