Hello all. I was just wondering, does anyone use their BMPC 6K with a gimble? If so, what are some options y'all like?

The Gimbal seems to work great with the BMPCC 6K and Canon CN-E lenses and the test footage looks great so far. Balancing is pretty straight forward but I do go pretty minimal with the rig setup. It does have some weight to it especially when I add an external monitor onto the base of the gimbal, but I can manage it ok.
I don't have any experience with other gimbals, but I've seen most of all the reviews and decided to go with the Ronin. So far so good here.

I use a Moza Air 2 and the one and only thing I like about it is I can run it for days with my vmount. Not crazy about having to have a hdmi cable throwing it off balance and preventing any rolling action.
