FeiYu Tech AK4500

The FeiYu Tech AK4500 3-Axis Gimbal is able to track and compensate for camera movements in three axes: tilt, pan and roll. On its platform, you can attach both a miniature “digital camera” weighing from 150 g, and a massive “carcass” of a SLR camera with long-focus optics weighing up to 4.6 kg.

Thoughtful ergonomics

Ergonomics steadicam thought out to the smallest detail. Judge for yourself, it is equipped with a two-piece platform (one part of it is fixed to the stabilizer, the second is attached to the camera), a follow-focus system, an extension handle, a support frame for the lens, cables for connecting the camera and a multifunctional bracket(all kinds of additional accessories can be installed on it) . In a separate box, an additional control handle is usually supplied, which allows you to shoot from the lower position. It connects to the stub via Bluetooth and has a built-in gyroscope to control the movements of the gimbal.

Touch control

The FeiYu Tech AK4500's main control is an OLED touch screen in the main handle. From it you can “steer” the camera settings, select the stabilization mode, start rotation at the right time and increase or decrease its speed, put the stub in selfie mode, which quickly turns the camera to the operator. The wheel on the side of the handle can control the follow focus and rotation of the axes. An even more extensive list of settings is in the FeiYu ON mobile application.

Axle lock

Adjusting the balance of the steadicam takes a minimum of time and nerves. When balancing each specific axis, the user has the right to block the other two. Also, the stabilizer does not have to be recharged often — a charge of four 2200 mAh batteries is enough for 12 hours of battery life. Of the minuses of the model, an additional handle that does not automatically turn off and a small list of supported cameras from the start are noted. The second point is to be corrected step by step with the release of each subsequent firmware for the device.
