I received ZHIYUN Crane 4 today, my observations are as follows.
Cons:
- Balancing wasn’t as easy as all videos I have watched showed it was. It took me over an hour to balance BMCC6K-FF, lens and adaptor, they weigh around 3.3kg.
- the camera has slid out off the quick release plate twice, during balancing, although I tighten up the screw very well.
- to pack it, I had to put all axes back to their initial/default position resulting in losing the balance for future use. Luckily, I took photos of axes’ positions beforehand.
Pros:
- I was able to control the camera through the usb cable. I could use the adjustment wheel to pull focus. However, the record button messes focus out because it’s programmed to adjust focus by half pressing it. Pressing it fully didn’t help.
For those who own DJI RS3, are you encountering the same, more or less?
