Every since the first camera was taken off of a tripod and put into motion, stability has been one of the biggest challenges for filmmakers of all eras. Yet, even as cameras have developed much better built-in, in-body stablization systems, the need to add even more stability and smoothness to your shots is still crucial.

Which is why our "Deals of the Week" features three different Zhiyun handheld gimbal stabilizer kits which should make your shots much smoother and easier to work with. Let's look at three options ranging from smartphone gimbals to mirrorless camera options.


Smartphone Gimbal Combo Kit

The Smooth-5 Smartphone Stabilizer from Zhiyun-Tech has been updated and designed for a more compact and intuitive experience to provide cine-style functions to content creators using their mobile phones for video capture. When used with the free, downloadable ZY Play app, the control panel enables Android and iOS users to control both gimbal and smartphone camera functions such as focus, zoom, time-lapse, and still photo settings. This Combo Kit includes a magnetic fill light, four color filters, a wrist strap, and a custom carry bag.
