Zhiyun-Tech WEEBILL-S Handheld Gimbal Stabilizer

What I Love About the Weebill-S

Pro #1: Functionality

As a handheld camera gimbal, the Weebill-S performs as expected and delivers quality, stabilized footage. In our time using the gimbal, we found that the motor supports a decent payload (Zhiyun hasn’t released the specific payload limitation) and the battery operating time delivers on its promised 14-hours. We tested the gimbal using a Canon EOS R and the gimbal showed no signs of struggle in handling this combination.

Pro #2: The Handle

This might also fall under functionality, but the handle deserves its own pro. You can quickly switch from a handheld position to an underslung carrying position and then back again, hassle free.

Pro #3: Selfie-Mode

With three clicks of the button on the handle, the Weebill-S will spin the camera around into “Selfie Mode.” When paired with a flip-out LCD screen on your camera, this feature makes it convenient to switch modes and get a stable shot of yourself doing whatever it is you do while making selfie videos.

Pro #4: Locking Arms

The gimbal features locking arms, which works well for the initial balancing when placing your camera on the gimbal, as well as when using it with a tripod or for travel, and so on.
