Depending on your camera, a smaller and more compact handheld gimbal might be a better option for a lighter camera, as it reduces the overall weight of your setup. Other gimbals offer 3-axis stabilization that corrects roll, pitch, and yaw described above. For instance, some smaller gimbals offer only 1-axis stabilization, correcting forward and backward tilt movement. Pay attention to the number of axes that the gimbal provides stabilization for, as this affects how the effective the gimbal can be in your shooting environment. Knowing this, you can pick out and chose the gimbal that best suits your needs. The motors are achieving the same effect however, they are built and designed for different arrangements and camera weights. Whether it’s a large gimbal like the Ronin 2 or a small and compact setup like the Osmo Pocket, the mechanical function is identical.



You might have seen different types of stabilizer gimbals out in the field, from the large two-handed versions like the Ronin-M, Ronin-MX, and Ronin 2, to the single-handed devices like the Ronin-S.
