5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Gimbal run&gun
Reviewed in France on September 8, 2020
J'appréciais déjà bien le Crane 2, mais cette nouvelle version apporte pas mal d'améliorations vraiment sympa :
- Il est possible de choisir la forme du gimbal en fonction de votre boîtier ou setup. De base le Crane 2S est fourni avec un grand bras à l’arrière qui amène l’axe du roll juste derrière le boitier. Mais dans cette config si on a un écran à l’arrière du boitier ça va énormément le cacher, on ne pourra vraiment s’en servir. Il est donc possible de retirer une portion du bras pour avoir le moteur du roll décalé vers le bas et ça c’est vraiment pratique. Pour passer de l’un à l’autre, il faut quand même retirer une dizaine de vis, avec deux clés alène différentes plus un petit cruciforme. Pas évident mais ça se fait.
- Tous les réglages de personnalisation sont faisables directement depuis l’écran intégré au gimbal, pas besoin de passer par l’application. Par contre attention, avant d’utiliser le gimbal pour la première fois, Zhiyun nous oblige à installer l’appli ZY Play, à créer un compte, s’y connecter et à enregistrer le gimbal
- Idée toute bête mais super pratique, le système de vérouillage mécanique des axes. Sur chaque axe vous avez un petit bouton pour verrouiller l’axe. C’est super utile quand on transporte le stabilisateur ou pour le ranger et éviter qu’il bouge
- autre idée vraiment excellente et pour moi c’est vraiment un atout qui peut faire la différence à l’usage, c’est le système de fixation intégré sur le côté. Une partie du bras qui supporte l’appareil peut se détacher via un petit levier. On relâche le levier et on peut ensuite sortir le plateau principal. On peut donc passer du gimbal à un trépied et vice-versa sans refaire l’équilbrage !
- on peut maintenant fixer directement le plateau principal sur le coté, pour faire des vidéos verticales en allégeant le setup et évitant de passer par un L-bracket
- encore un gros point positif par rapport à d’autres gimbals, le Crane 2 S utilise des batteries 18650 standards, qui sont facilement remplaçables et pas cher
- Au niveau de l’utilisation, le Crane 2 S est vraiment super agréable, comme l’était déjà le Crane 2, avec une fluidité peut-être encore améliorée, surtout sans rien régler dans les menus, avec la config de base. Je l’ai utilisé principalement avec un X-T3 et l’indétronable Sigma 18-35, ce qui fait une config autour de 1,6 kg. Et là la stabilité et la fluidité sont vraiment irréprochables, quelle que soit la position
- Il y a tous les modes de contrôle qu’il faut : pan follow, où comme son nom l’indique le gimbal suit le pan mais stabilise tout le reste, le mode lock qui permet de verrouiller tous les axes, ce qui est particulièrement utile pour conserver une perspective précise par exemple. mode follow, où le gimbal va suivre tous les mouvements de manière très fluide. Si on veut un suivi plus agressif on utilisera le mode GO, qui suit aussi les mouvements mais beaucoup plus rapidement. Enfin il y a le mode POV - Point of View - qui suit tous les mouvements, y compris le roll et enfin le mode vortex qui ne sert jamais en vrai mais qui est toujours rigolo à utiliser. Les raccourcis sont bien pensés, les noms assez logiques et on a toujours la confirmation visuelle du mode sélectionné à l’écran donc la prise en main est vraiment rapide. En quelques heures on maitrise vraiment le gimbal et avec un peu d'entraînement on peut même passer de manière fluide du normal au mode inversé, qui fonctionne lui aussi très bien.

Niveau défauts : une appli pas au top de ce qui se fait et une roue crantée pas très agréable à utiliser
