Zhiyun Crane v2 3-Axis Handheld Gimbal Stabilizer

Zhiyun-Tech Crane v2 3-Axis Handheld Gimbal Stabilizer
Professional 360° Motorized Stabilization Matrix with Upgraded 3.9 lb Payload Capacity
The Zhiyun-Tech Crane v2 is a high-performance, professional 3-axis handheld gimbal stabilizer engineered to deliver cinema-smooth, fluid tracking shots for DSLR and mirrorless camera systems. This upgraded v2 edition elevates the original Crane design by introducing high-torque motors capable of supporting payloads up to 3.9 lbs—making it an ideal match for popular setups like the Sony a7-series or Panasonic GH-series.

Driven by three 32-bit Motor Control Units (MCUs) running in parallel at a blistering 4000 Hz, the Crane v2 offers full 360° rotation across all three axes for unlimited creative movement. With tool-less balancing, a tactical 4-way joystick, and massive battery endurance, this gimbal transforms handheld camera shake into seamless, cinematic storytelling.
