Cutting-edge touchscreen for intuitive control
The Zhiyun Weebill 2 Gimbal has the industry’s first flip-out HD touchscreen to give filmmakers incredible control. One-touch smart-follow ensures a seamless transition when tracking subjects, while another quick tap activates timelapse or gesture control. This will drastically speed up the filmmaking process without the need for the ZY Play app. Also, the 2.88-inch full-color screen is rotatable and features a retractable interface for easy monitoring.
Stellar image stabilization
Filmmakers rely on gimbals for smooth footage. The Zhiyun Weebill 2 delivers with its built-in Infineon embedded sensor. The innovative new sensor pairs with the Weebill 2’s enhanced motor torque and core algorithm to guarantee top-notch handheld stability. To add, the Weebill 2 stabilizes across camera and lens combinations, including the Sony A7III and the Sony FE 24-70mm/ f2.8, or the Canon 5D Mark IV with the Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8.
A design for portability and comfort
The lightweight Weebill 2 incorporates the Zhiyun’s fan-favorite sling-grip functionality for easy carrying and all day comfort. The Sling Grip Handle is available in select Weebill 2 packages.
