Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

Do you want to capture the best 360 videos? If the answer is yes, you have to consider something that itself is an experienced pro.

As I am a professional videographer, I know the importance of a level horizon for the popular 360 camera videos. And, people don’t love to watch any careless shaky 360 videos. 

To make your shooting experience, I am going to share my personal experience with the tool that can be used to stabilize your shooting experience. 

Yes! You are right. I am talking about the gimbals for 360 cameras – the image or video stabilizer.

At present, 360 cameras are popular with the Aerosmith young generations for its 360-degree shooting capacity. These types of cameras are quite different than other ordinary cameras for automatic stitching and live-streaming with high resolution up to 5k.

As we all know very much about the 360 camera, today I’ll show the best paths that sharps you to consider the best gimbal for 360 camera to shoot shameless smooth footage.

Difference Between gimbal And Selfie Stick/Tripod:

A gimbal is always an essential tool for the professional videographer to minimize the annoying shake while capturing the moving videos. Moreover, it is a handheld tool that supports you to take stable footage maintaining the horizon level. And, when it comes to taking smooth footage without camera shake, gimbals can be your ultimate choice. 

On the other hand, from my personal experience, I have found that a selfie stick is not sufficient for a 360 camera to shoot moving video without vibration. Furthermore, a 360 camera allows you to be fully stable on its axis to lock the preview but selfie sticks don’t allow that. But a tripod is better than a selfie stick until you move your 360 camera.

That’s enough discussion about other supporting tools. Now, it’s time to analyze the best gimbals for 360 cameras.

    Hi

    Very informative. I have just got the Insta360 Pro 2. Concerned about the weight which is about 1550 gms. The weight capacity on both the gimbals is only 1000 gms. Can you recommend something suitable.
