With the continuous improvement of mobile phone photography technology and higher and higher pixels, mobile phones have become the first choice for people to record wonderful moments. However, mobile phones still have an unsolvable problem - anti shake. Even though many mobile phones now support optical anti shake, we all know that optical anti shake can not catch up with any use when shooting videos. Especially with the prevalence of mobile phone live broadcast, some anchors hold their selfie poles and the audience's eyes ache. In this case, handheld stabilizers began to spring up like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, which also just caught the trend that everyone likes to shoot videos. Today, we are going to introduce a hand-held stabilizer within 1000 yuan - Feiyu SPG C three-axis stabilizer.
Unpacking
The design of SPG C stabilizer box is square and the white background is simple. Thank you Love to play computer games Trial opportunities offered.
After opening the packing box, it can be seen that the stabilizer is placed in the sponge mold with holes punched. It is a pity that there is no separate storage bag, which is inconvenient to carry out. The box is too large to fit. If you don't use the box, you are afraid of breaking the shaft body.
Accessories, including stabilizer body, a battery, battery case, USB data cable, weight weight. There are not many things, but they are also comprehensive.
The 22650 battery model with 3000mAh can provide enough battery life.
There are only so many unpacking parts. There is nothing particularly detailed to explain. Let's take a look at the details.
details
The function and name of each key need to be memorized to return to high school.
First, put the battery into the body and rotate it almost clockwise with the flashlight.
The buttons on the front are divided into Bluetooth shutter, function key, four-way joystick, and status indicator. I am curious about where the zoom button is. In fact, there is a mystery behind it.
The back is the 1/4 inch screw hole, and there is also a trigger key. Yes, this key is the key to zoom. Long press the trigger key+rocker up and down is the zoom. To be honest, although one opening is saved, the zoom operation comfort is greatly reduced. It is really inconvenient to use two mobile phones together.
There is a charging interface on the side of the handle, which uses the common micro usb interface. We are very familiar with this.
The pitch axis can be changed into three grades, which are used to match the mobile phones with different weights. The specific settings are:; The lightest plastic block shall be used if the mobile phone weight is less than 165g; The light counterweight with 180g<mobile phone weight<194g is a silver metal block; the counterweight with mobile phone weight>194g is a black and hard metal block.
The stabilizer is like this.
It is relatively small, but its weight should not be underestimated. With 355g and battery phone, it is still uncomfortable to hold a weight close to 700g or 800g for a long time.
function
To control your handheld PTZ, you need to use it in conjunction with your app. You can download Feiyu ON from the app store. You can only control your PTZ after downloading the app. Setting parameters can't be done by the stabilizer alone. The stabilizer itself can only be set simply, and the internal programs of specific components need to be set by the app.
The first step to connect a mobile phone: open Bluetooth, open APP, select the Feiyu series you want to connect to, for example, if my SPG is SPG, select the SPG series, search to PTZ and click to connect.
Then we can see such a page. Shooting is in three modes: normal, panorama, delay, and the status bar is on the left.
The status bar has its own characteristics. For details, we can see the illustration in the figure above. It is complex, but you can easily use each function after you are familiar with it. In addition to the general settings, we can also switch to the PTZ settings interface.
The specific thing is to set the rotation speed and blind area of the shaft body. These are relatively virtual parameters, which need you to fully adapt to and mediate. I still haven't fully understood them in just a week, which is the same as the SLR. It seems to be simple three parameters, but it needs to accumulate over time to know what to use.
As for the function settings, they are quite numerous and complicated, and it will be difficult to explain clearly for a while. You can see the official explanation, which is very detailed. It is much more refined than the personal explanation. You can see the pictures.
In terms of function key combination, it takes a little practice to remember and use more. It took me several days to memorize these operations. Only when you are familiar with each operation can you take the video you want.
shot
First of all, let's know what the working state of sports is.
The so-called three-axis stabilizer is that the three axes work together, so that you can still keep the PTZ stable when moving. As shown in the dynamic diagram, the mobile phone can still be horizontal if you swing freely, so the video output will be very stable.
The four-way rocker can swing up and down to adjust the angle of view you want. The default speed is a little slow, so I need to adjust it when I go back. This way, I can quickly adjust the speed when I take a video to ensure that I can get what I want.
In addition to up and down pitch adjustment, there is also left and right horizontal adjustment. This is the role of the heading axis, which is very important in portrait tracking mode.
Live shooting
This is a video shot by walking with a mobile phone mounted on the PTZ. Does it have the feeling of a movie scene. Basically, there is no jitter. The stabilizer adds a very high bonus to the captured video.
This is the effect of several runs. It is hard to imagine that such good stability can still be maintained during the run. This is due to the effect of three-axis stability. As a stabilizer with a price of less than 1000 yuan, the effect is still excellent.
summary
As it has been raining in Guangzhou this week, I didn't go out to play because of the bad weather. I had to take some videos when the rain stopped for an hour or two. You can see that the water stains on the ground are still obvious. I'm sorry I didn't shoot more good videos of going to play Go Hi, but I can still feel that this stabilizer will bring me great surprises in the future. In the future, shooting will never be afraid of shaking hands. Of course, this stabilizer is not perfect. For example, the zoom operation is hard, the overall weight is heavy, and it is very inconvenient to carry out without a portable bag. These still need to be improved. But for those who shoot more videos, anchors who like outdoor sports and participate in activities, a stabilizer within 1000 yuan is worth having. As a reviewer, a stabilizer can enable me to shoot more high-quality videos in the future, and I look forward to the days with Feiyu SPG c.
