Today's mobile phone manufacturers always hope to improve the anti shake ability of mobile phone shooting with the help of various so-called black technologies. The hardware or software measures focusing on optical anti shake and electronic anti shake are helpful to the stable shooting of static images to a certain extent, but in the face of dynamic video, especially video shooting in motion, it seems very powerless. It can be concluded that such improvement has not brought about an improvement in the effect of "direct pricking pain points" for users, because no matter what advanced technology is used at present, the anti shake effect of the mobile phone PTZ stabilizer is not more intuitive in the end.

When it comes to the mobile phone PTZ stabilizer for the first time, it is estimated that many friends will be a little surprised. However, users who have played with aerial photography UAVs will certainly be familiar with PTZ stabilizer, which has achieved the effect of camera stabilization and anti shake through brushless motor driving the stabilization axis and professional underlying algorithm. Of course, it doesn't matter even if you haven't played UAV. Many of the online aerial videos that look magnificent and professional are actually shot with the help of the excellent anti shake performance of the PTZ stabilizer.

Now the application scope of the PTZ stabilizer has expanded to the mobile phone field. After all, this demand is more in line with the public taste and the threshold is lower. For users who like to use mobile camera to record their daily life, there is no doubt that many creative video recording methods and more stable and outstanding video quality will be more gratifying. In the early years, Feiyu Technology, which was specialized in adapting the PTZ stabilizer for UAVs and motion cameras, has also introduced its new SPG mobile phone PTZ stabilizer, a high-tech product that looks like a shrink shaped special selfie stick.

●      Appearance details

First of all, from the perspective of external packaging, Feiyu SPG mobile phone PTZ stabilizer follows the international route. In fact, Feiyu's products are really famous overseas. In addition to the high-definition photo of the product body, the text introduction of the SPG simple white box is in full English. It is worth noting that this is a three-axis design stabilizer. Although the introduction is designed for iPhone, the actual situation is that most Android phones can also be used normally, Even the small accessories introduced by the author can be used with sports cameras.

It can be seen from the inside of the package that the protective measures for the product are in place, The SPG stabilizer is first packed in a customized soft shell storage bag and firmly fixed in a box embedded with foam foam. The small box on the side looks small, but it is equipped with batteries and USB charging lines. In addition, the accessories include a pair of memory foam sleeve pads that are fixed to protect the sports camera, and of course, instruction manuals in many languages Simple instructions and warranty card for Bluetooth photo taking and APP connection.

The standard 22650 rechargeable lithium battery has a capacity of 3000mAh. Although the SPG is designed to be powered by a single battery, the official theoretical endurance can reach 8 hours, which is sufficient for daily use. In other words, even if there is a special need for outdoor shooting, this type of battery is common to many flashlights. It is quite easy to add one more battery, and the key price is not expensive.

Relatively speaking, the SPG stabilizer is a relatively sophisticated electronic product, so it is necessary to have a soft shell storage protective bag, especially convenient to carry when traveling. The consideration of the manufacturer's trademark with a protective bag is very considerate.

The battery is installed in the middle part of the handle of the SPG stabilizer, and the battery compartment can be easily disassembled by screwing. The main material of the Feiyu SPG mobile phone stabilizer can be seen from the threaded opening at the disassembly point that it is made of aluminum alloy, and the surface part is treated by metal sandblasting process, which looks more classy. It is worth mentioning that the surface of the handle is covered with silica gel, making it more comfortable to hold. The most important thing is that it will not feel cold in winter.

For the operation module area of the Feiyu SPG mobile phone stabilizer, the layout is reasonable at first. It can easily control the rocker and keys with different tactile shapes by blind thumb operation when holding with one hand. Among them, the most widely used four-way translational rocker is particularly smooth to operate, and the displacement control for 360 degree heading and pitch angle is very accurate; The function key that takes account of the switching power supply is responsible for realizing the free switching of course following, course and pitch following, horizontal turning 180 degrees, reset and sleep modes through the number of consecutive keys in the power on state; As for the Bluetooth shutter key, the shortcut function of taking photos by short press and recording by long press can be realized through the exclusive APP later.

In addition, the status indicator above the rocker is lifted and blinked through three colors of red, green and blue. It can not only judge the current working mode of the stabilizer, but also judge the existing fault problems and low battery warning functions, which are very intuitive and convenient.

On the side of the control area of the SPG stabilizer, there is a Micro USB charging port specially designed for direct charging with a rubber dust cover.

It is worth mentioning that Feiyu SPG mobile phone stabilizer is also considerate in design. A 1/4-inch screw hole is designed at the bottom of the grip handle and below the heading axis, which can easily expand the connection between the standard camera tripod and the mini desktop tripod to meet more shooting needs.

Different from other models of handheld stabilizers, Feiyu SPG has eliminated the counterweight component, but added the design of sliding cross arm to the front end of its roller motor, adjusted the horizontal center of gravity calibration after installing the mobile phone through the lever slide rail, and locked it with the screw knob, thus achieving the goal of adapting mobile phones of different sizes and weights to the horizontal state. Even with the 5.5 inch iPhone 6 Plus, the author can quickly adjust the balance point.

The fixture of Feiyu SPG handheld stabilizer adopts staggered design, and the upper and lower frames can be retracted. The inner side of the upper and lower frames of the fixture has a rubber layer with both anti slip and protection functions, and the drawdown path is quite large, so the phone can be fixed securely.

Here the author shows the shape of the fixed sports camera after installing the memory sponge sleeve pad small accessories. It is easy to see from the above figure that the rationality of this design is quite reliable. The small sports camera can also be well adapted to use on the SPG handheld stabilizer. Friends who like outdoor sports have another way to play.

●      Use Demo

Before official use, it is necessary for the author to briefly introduce the motor part of the Xiafeiyu SPG handheld stabilizer. As a three-axis stabilizer product, in other words, there are three brushless motors on the stabilizer that are responsible for the work in different motion directions, that is, the 360 degree heading motor at the top of the holding handle was mentioned earlier, The pitch angle adjustment motor on the right of the horizontal direction of the mobile phone and the roll angle adjustment motor on the back of the mobile phone. In the actual use process, the coordination between the three brushless motors is relatively close, and the adjustment and switching of the angle can not feel a setback. With the help of the gyroscope and platform algorithm inside Feiyu, a stable anti shake function is achieved. Now the author will let you feel the performance of the three axis stabilizer of Feiyu SPG through several GIF animations.

The most frequently used mode is the heading following mode, which is also the initial mode after the stabilizer is started. In this mode, pitch and roll are locked. Unless the handheld turns the heading, they are fixed in one direction for shooting. Click the function key to lock the course. Of course, you can adjust the angle of view through the four-way rocker after locking. The video that I will show you later was shot in this mode.

Double click the function key to activate the heading and pitch follow mode. Unlike the previous mode, the heading and pitch are no longer locked, but only the roll axis is locked. Therefore, when shooting, the angle of view will follow the direction of the hand, but this mode looks like a professional rocker, but novices need some time to adapt.

The horizontal angle of the mobile phone lens can be accurately rotated by 180 degrees through three consecutive keystrokes. The purpose of this function is to integrate the photographer into the video, such as recording the birthday party of family members or friends, while taking photos of other people, I don't forget to put myself into the video at any time.

In addition, the vertical shooting mode specially designed for mobile phones is definitely very convenient for live broadcast and self shooting. The specific operation mode is to move the stabilizer slowly to the left or right. When the angle between the pitch axis and the heading axis is less than 30 degrees, click the function key to quickly switch to the vertical shooting mode.

Finally, let's use a video with comparison to test the function of the Apsara SPG mobile phone PTZ stabilizer. I believe friends who have seen the video will recognize it very much on the one hand

Today's electronic products are not perfect without a little intelligence. Obviously, Feiyu has also provided corresponding APP programs for its handheld stabilizer devices, supporting IOS and Android systems. However, all the functions and settings of Android are integrated in an application called "Feiyu ON". According to the IOS system tested by the author, in addition to the exclusive shooting application "Feiyu ON" that can replace the system camera, its settings for heading speed, pitch speed, motor strength and other parameters also need to rely on a separate "FY Settings" Can be completed.

Of course, one of the most practical highlights of the whole APP is the face detection&tracking function, which can be turned on by selecting the "intelligent" mode in the shooting interface. As far as the actual experience is concerned, the accuracy of face recognition of this system is satisfactory. I believe that for people who often broadcast live and like to take selfies, the function that just needs to be practical is quite gratifying.

●      Write at the end

With the sharp increase of camera pixels and light-sensitive elements in mobile phones today, many mobile phones also support 4K ultra-high definition camera and special effect functions such as slow lens and delay camera. Therefore, with the help of mobile phone PTZ stabilizer, I believe that everyone can easily shoot clear and stable excellent video works, adding more vivid and interesting sound and picture colors to daily life.

The appearance of Feiyu SPG mobile phone PTZ stabilizer, with professional design, excellent hardware workmanship and no difficulty in using, ultimately contributed to the professional and instant effect. From the current market price of 1799 yuan, which is not too expensive, the Feiyu SPG mobile phone PTZ stabilizer is still worth recommending to you.
