Zhiyun’s Crane-M3: An All-in-One Gimbal With Unique Features

Zhiyun is no stranger to interesting camera stabilization options, with past products featuring innovative designs that put a twist on the traditional “stabilized stick” form factor of gimbals. Their latest launch, the Crane-M3, brings a number of firsts to the Crane lineup and just might reinvent how content creators approach rigging up a video setup. The Crane-M3 can be thought of as the middle of the gimbal market. While it’s compatible with smartphones, it’s large and strong enough to support action cameras and even full frame mirrorless cameras in combination with certain lenses.
