About this deal

Once done, the camera phone can be clamped in place. In position, you can see the clearance given to the lens by the gimbal design. These template modes rotate and spin the phone through different clips and are effective for creating fast content, and they’re also, surprisingly, a lot of fun. Hohem suggests you use their app rather than the native apple or android camera options. It’s well worth doing as there are so many close integrations that you would miss out on if you bypass the gimbals dedicated app.

Hohem iSteady X2 review | Digital Camera World

This is where I faced my next problem. There’s no way to add any kind of counterbalance to the head where the phone attaches. So, with a VND filter attached to my phone, it’s very heavy to one side, even when pushed as far as it’ll go into the gimbal mount. If you’re only going to be shooting vertical video, though, this isn’t much of a problem, as it will happily balance vertically even with the filter attached – just not horizontally. Axis Stabilization: Thanks to its brushless motors and iSteady 4.0 anti-shake algorithm, this 3-axis gimbal provides all-around stability with 320° pan, tilt, and roll rotation. Four follow shot modes, shoot at low angles. If, on the other hand, you’re more of a vlogger and you’re using the selfie camera a lot, or you’re more of a serious “smartphone filmmaker” who wants to be able to use 3rd party lenses with your phone, then there may be better options out there.

Why buy from the hohem store?

The iSteady X (below) is much more compact than an average-sized smartphone gimbal (above) Stabilization Performance The different shooting modes all seem to work quite well, with the exception of the “Fantastic Rotation” for which I don’t really get the point. The Dolly Zoom is cool, but I don’t think it’s a feature that many will use regularly. Perhaps you’ll give it a try because you’ve never done it before, but then forget the feature’s even there.

After activation, the gimbal springs into life and works as expected and the motors feel very smooth, stable and move confidently. Using the Hohem iSteady X This isn’t just a second-generation product, but one in which Hohem have taken the opportunity to add the features many creators need without assaulting their budgets.When I turned the gimbal for the first time, the stabilization was smoooooth and refined. The defaults are a “just right” setting that gives you the feeling you are guiding the camera where you want it to go, totally intuitively and without any sense of lag. You can “float” your way through any walkable space with this stabilizer and get a great result. I found the iSteady X handles more predictably than other stabilizers, without the annoying drift I’ve experienced with some (many) others I have tried. And with the Hohem Pro app you can fine-tune all the parameters needed to customize the gimbal to your specific needs. Fast forward to the last couple of gimbal generations and I’ve stopped doing in-depth comparisons as the differences have become so minuscule. However, while the overall motion and smoothness of the footage were good, I noticed that each time I started to move, it took the gimbal a few moments to settle in. Not too much of an issue, but just something to note.
