Time lapse. The ability to use a stabiliser for shooting video in time-lapse mode. In this mode, shooting is carried out at a very low frame rate (one frame every few seconds, or even minutes), due to which the effect of fast movement is achieved in the finished video (for example, a day from sunrise to sunset can fit in several minutes). However, this is the general principle of time lapse; but the specific ways of its implementation may be different.
—
Selfie shooting. The presence of a separate mode for shooting selfies.
—
Sports mode. It allows you to use the stabiliser when shooting in extreme conditions, on the go and even while running. If you turn on the sport mode, the stabilizer begins to compensate for even deep and sharp frame deviations. Of course, an increase in the potential of the stabilizer affects the charge of the battery pack — the sport mode significantly speeds up the process of discharging the battery.
—
Panorama. The presence of the mode of automatic shooting of panoramas in the design of the stabiliser. In this mode, the camera attached to the device automatically rotates, taking a series of shots, from which the finished panoramic image is then “glued together”. Most often, this function involves the creation of horizontal panoramas, but it can also provide the movement of th
...e camera vertically.
— Fixing camera position. The ability to fix the position of the camera mounted on the stabiliser. Fixation means such a mode of operation in which the camera remains constantly directed in the same direction, regardless of the position of the stabiliser itself.
— Axis lock. The presence of an axis lock in the design of the stabiliser — in such a way that when turning along this axis, the camera will follow the movement of the stand. Such an opportunity is necessary in cases where there is a need for precise and operational control over the movement of the camera.
— Tracking mode. The presence of an automatic tracking mode in the stabiliser. By the name, in this mode the device automatically follows a certain object, turning the camera so that this object is constantly in the centre of the image, or at least in the frame. In this case, the subject for tracking can be set by the operator himself.
— Inversion mode. The presence of the inversion mode in the design of the stabiliser. This function, as the name suggests, allows you to turn the device upside down, keeping all its functions and the position of the camera.
— The control wheel allows you to speed up and simplify the setting of the stabiliser operating modes. The wheel is designed to complement the keypad, but in some cases, it can replace the buttons completely. Typically, the control wheel is used to adjust the sensitivity of the gimbal, as well as rotate and lock the camera mounting pad. If the optics are fully compatible with the stabiliser, then the control wheel can be used to adjust both focus with zoom and many other filming parameters.
