Since the invention of the selfie stick, the straight line has encouraged the enthusiasm of the kids for selfie, because the selfie stick has brought great convenience to selfie and has significantly improved the effect of selfie. But as a digital enthusiast, are the kids not satisfied with using a selfie stick that can only lengthen the shooting distance and Bluetooth remote control shutter. As one of the digital enthusiasts, the author has long been dissatisfied with the simple function of the selfie stick. This time, we had the chance to get the public test of the Zhiyun Smooth II handheld stabilizer, just to feel what kind of shooting experience this professional shooting artifact can bring. Talk less and talk about experience.

First of all, as a PTZ stabilizing device, the author believes that Zhiyun Smooth II belongs to the category of precision instruments, and has been exposed to many PTZ products before, such as the external PTZ of aerial cameras, micro single stabilizers, and so on. Their common feature is that they all need good seismic protection. So when Zhiyun Smooth II got it, it directly found the protection box of the previous sports camera, A set of DIY shockproof sponge was replaced, the mold was buckled out according to the appearance of Zhiyun Smooth II, and the stabilizer was properly placed in the shockproof box. The sense of professionalism soared instantly. With such equipment, I have enough confidence to go out and shoot short films. Forgive me for being vain again.

However, the DIY shockproof sponge can be easily buckled out of the shape of the items to be placed. It is properly pasted, just like the original one. From a distance, do you feel that this guy is similar to some kind of weapon. Don't make too much of it.

Take out the stabilizer, and the body is black, which is very consistent with the aesthetic pursuit of digital fever. The texture of the metal paint on the surface of the fuselage is very good, and the faint flash of metal particles reflects light. The paintwork is very fine, and the painting at the joints and corners is even, without defects.

Accessories: a Micro USB data cable, a counterweight and a anti-collision sticker. There is also an 18650 lithium battery, which is directly placed in the body, not separately placed. A layer of sponge is pasted on the side where the counterweight block contacts the pan tilt to prevent scratching the side of the pan tilt. The details are handled carefully.

"Zhiyun" is written on the side of the stabilizer's pitch axis, and the hollow font is simple and full of design.

The product model "Smooth II" is written on the back of the roller, which is as simple and clear as the side.

The middle part of the grip is a switch and a focus adjusting button. The keys are made of metal, with a golden layer. Press the switch button for a long time to turn the power on and off, and press it for a short time to take photos when Bluetooth is connected.

The middle part of the grip bar is also equipped with a universal adjustment knob, which can adjust the direction of the pan tilt freely. The knob is variable, which changes with the adjustment speed of the pan tilt with the degree of power. It has a good sense of control. The toggle damping is not appropriate, and it has a good feel. No water, no death.

The side charging socket can be directly connected to charge the lithium battery.

There is a universal connection screw interface at the bottom of the handheld rod, which can connect the foot rest and other expansion devices. The scalability is guaranteed. If you like to play, the setting can be connected to the suction cup, and the stabilizer can be installed on the roof to record speed and passion. One week's intaglio decoration and metal ring reflect the sense of design. Professional equipment should look like professional equipment.

Unscrew the bottom battery cover and take out the 18650B lithium battery, which is a universal model and can be added later. After checking the official website, there are battery extension rods and backup batteries. The stabilizer consumes a lot of power when it works. If it is used frequently, it is recommended to equip two spare batteries to ensure the endurance.

The inner side of the phone holder is made with a scratch resistant pad to prevent the metal part of the stabilizer from hurting the phone.

The rubber on the side is thick and has a certain elasticity. After the phone is clamped, the phone can be stably grasped to prevent the phone from slipping.

There is a center of gravity adjustment knob on the back of the phone holder. Loosen the knob to adjust the center of gravity of the phone up and down. Control the position of the center of gravity according to the width of the phone. After finding the center of gravity, tighten the knob. This operation is simple and not complicated.

Well, we know the basic appearance and functions of the stabilizer, so we can start to try to install a mobile phone to shoot blockbusters.

The installed mobile phone is an Iphone6 plus model. Since the size of the mobile phone is slightly larger, it needs to add an attached counterweight to balance the body, so first add an assembly weight on the side of the pitching shaft. The installation is very simple. Find the installation interface and rotate it until it is tight.

Then pull out the spring clip on the phone holder and clip the phone into the clamp. The bottom of the phone is near the innermost side.

After clamping the phone, adjust the center of gravity of the back, find the center of gravity and tighten the knob.

After the mobile phone is installed, the power switch can be turned on, and the mobile phone will enter the balance state at the moment of power on. After power on, the stabilizer defaults to follow mode. Click and double click the rocker to switch between lock mode and full follow mode, and switch according to different shooting needs.

The stabilizer is stable after being powered on, and can stand on the table completely without dependence. It can be seen that the balance skill is extraordinary.

Connecting to the mobile phone APP, you can use the mobile phone APP to operate the parameters of the stabilizer. The operation is very simple. The mobile phone directly replaces the remote control. APP can also perform calibration, monitoring and firmware upgrade.

The stable performance of Zhiyun Smooth II during the shooting process is satisfactory. No matter how you turn the grip, the phone can remain at the set horizontal angle, and the action is smooth, making the shooting process easy and pleasant.
