Balance<\/strong> is essential when choosing a 3-axis gimbal.<\/p>\n

Not only does a gimbal need to balance the camera, but it also needs to provide the right balance of features and functionality you need, while still staying within your budget.<\/p>\n

This means that a gimbal’s capacity<\/strong> is just as important as the gimbal’s own weight<\/strong>— if it’s too heavy to shoot with, it doesn’t matter how much camera it can handle.<\/p>\n
