Looking back over my hard drives, I realised that over the last 5 or 6 years, I've used gimbals a hell of a lot in my work! So I decided to make a video on why gimbals are such amazing tools and just a few of the ways that you can use them in your cinematography.
Nowadays it's so easy to shoot professional footage on the go using 3 - axis gimbals - whereas in the past you'd need to be setting up dolly tracks or hiring steadycam operators. Not to mention the newer, smaller, pistol grip gimbals, that you can mount to anything and use pretty much anywhere.
I'm still amazed at the quality of shots you can get using these tools and I think in today's run-and-gun world of video, they're pretty much an essential purchase if you're looking at getting smooth, professional looking footage on the fly.
