  • if you want a professional opinion, you probably would have to watch other

  • videos but if you want the opinion of someone just like you who purchased this

  • gear and trying to figure out exactly what to do with it this video is for you

  • Hi, today we'll be showing you how to operate the new Zhiyun Crane M2 together

  • with the Sony rx100 Mark 5A you can use this for the Sony rx100 mark 1 series

  • all the way to the mark 7 series it will be the same except for probably the mark

  • 6 and the 7 will be slightly heavier but still it will balance the same way as

  • what you do with the Mark 5A

  • To start off we'll be balancing the MarkA

  • on the Crane M2.

  • We'll be showing you how to do it in a few easy steps so

  • first you attach the given plate and the screw

  • the Sony Mark 5 A

  • What we do is there are two slots here, the shorter side and the longer side.

  • We will choose the shorter side to stop in for this Sony rx100

  • so just screw it in

  • Okay, so once you screw it in, next you have to release the lock on

  • the Crane M 2

  • The Crane M2 comes with a lock

  • then make sure your gimbal doesn't move around when it is in the bag

  • You release the lock screw

  • you can start your balancing process

  • First, you attach the plate on to the

  • Crane M2 - there's a lock

  • you lock it up . The next thing you do turn, on the camera because this lens

  • itself adds weight to the front of the camera

  • so in order to balance probably

  • you need to turn on the camera to balance. You start on balancing by

  • balancing the roll axes which is this red button over here

  • Next you balance the tilt axes,

  • point to the sky, it is this axes here that you need a balance

  • this is called the tilt axes. So, you turn on the screw here

  • you need to make micro adjustments to make sure it's balanced

  • it's balanced on the tilt and now the front side

  • okay, it's balance. After you your balances the tilt side, you need to

  • balance this pin as well, to make sure it's balanced properly and last but

  • not least you have to balance the pan axes as well.

  • So the balancing lever is here so what you do put it parallel to the ground, okay, right now you can see

  • it's not balanced

  • loosen up

  • okay as long as it is parallel to the ground it's balanced

  • so that's basically three aces to take note.

  • First is the row axes, second is the

  • tilt axes and last but not least would be your pan axes here. So once everything

  • is done just to a bit of micro adjustments to make sure it's balanced

  • properly

  • Why they need to balance is that if you don't balance it properly

  • it will not work on the vortex mode so in order to see whether your camera is

  • properly balanced, there's two ways to check it. First, you just position it as

  • long as it doesn't move too much it is balance. Next, you can turn on the

  • gimbal

  • press and hold up the site button. Go on to the vortex mode which is double

  • click to go to the go, double click to go to the vortex. Take a spin

  • If it spins well is balanced. So now you go back to the PF move and you click the

  • back button here

  • To make it back to usual position.

  • So you double click on the back button there

  • Next, we'll be heading back to the studio to show you how to link up your Zhiyun Play

  • on your phone together with the Sony rx100 Mark 5A to the Crane M2

  • Okay, so right now we are back to the studio we'll show you how to connect the

  • Rx100 mark 5A to the Crane M2 using the Zhiyun play app. So you just download the

  • Zhiyun Play app to your phone, turn it on

  • Find your crane, so this is the Crane m2

  • okaym you found Crane M2- so you press the connect now but before you do so

  • make sure you turn on the Crane M2- so you on the device this still show that

  • Crane M2 - you press connect it's connected. Then you enter again you ask

  • you to select device type camera or smartphone you press camera and you

  • enter now. At the same time, make sure your camera is on and for the camera

  • you have to go to the menu

  • go to the control wit smartphone mode on your camera (Network 1 Page 1)

  • I'm not sure if you can see this

  • Go to the menu

  • Control with smartphone, connection Wi-Fi standby

  • Same time go to Wi-Fi here and

  • search for the camera

  • so is trying to connect your device.

  • Because I've connected it earlier I do

  • not need to go through the process of finding the QR code. On the first try you

  • can just scan the QR code on your camera to the phone and it will auto connect .

  • In fact, once you connect your Sony rx100 to the Crane m2 for the next time around

  • you need not to use the Zhiyun play app to do the connection. What you need to do

  • is simply turn on the Crane M2, turn on the camera ,make sure the control with

  • Wi-Fi is on and you automatically connect for you

  • Oh shoots my button drop!

  • so what happened just now was that the button here was missing from the Crane M2

  • it came off and drop into the bag .

  • As you can see the button can be easily pop off

  • so - be careful when you're using the Crane M2, especially when you are

  • outside,

  • Make sure the button is always on before you store it after use

  • okay once it is connected what you can do with this is that you can control the zoom of

  • the camera from the crane and you can also record on and off from the crane

  • itself one click to record on video one click to stop

  • you can also press the record button to take a photo but you need to exit the

  • video mode from your camera to go to the camera mode - it could be aperture

  • priority , shutter priority or just auto mode. So, what you do is just to double

  • click on the red button here it'll auto focus and then will snap a photo

  • One of the things during the course of use is to note- is that the connection sometimes

  • can be a little bit iffy, so what happens is that once the camera is connected to

  • the Crane m2 you can use it to zoom but for recording purposes sometimes it

  • works sometimes it doesn't work

  • If that happens to you what you need to do is

  • just to switch off the Crane M2 and turn it on again and it should work and that is how

  • you connect the Crane M2 to the rx100 Mark 5A . Now, we'll hit back outdoors to

  • to check on the various shooting modes of theCrane m2 on the Sony rx100 Mark 5A

  • There are six modes on the Crane M2 - the first off is the pan follow mode

  • which is follows your arm , after the pam follow mode you click once and you have

  • the lock mode .Lock mode ensures your screen stays to the front, so no matter

  • how you positioned, it will still stay to the front

  • After the lock mode, is POV mode for one more click .so POV Morgause in full 360

  • motion. We go back to the pan follow mode and you double click it goes to the go mode

  • Go mode is the sport mode so you can twist your Gimbal and the camera

  • whips from side to side

  • and after Go mode you double-click again it goes to the Vortex mode so a

  • vortex mode spins your camera around

  • okay, you can also go pan follow mode and press follow. This will

  • follow the crane itself

  • Click on the button here go back to pan follow

  • double click behind and it will go back to the original position

  • okay, there's also a selfie mode on the Crane M2- so you just triple click on

  • the back button here

  • and go to selfie mode

  • okay - to exit the selfie mode, you'll just have to triple click it on a back button

  • and you'll go back to the original position

  • Other than shooting it on a horizontal axis, you can also shoot your camera in

  • the vertical axis. You do not need a special cag for this. What you need to

  • do is just to on the pan follow mode, tilt the camera and you can start

  • shooting on a pan follow mode

  • If you want a better effect for vertical shooting, we

  • do suggest you to click it to the lock mode, so this will be locked

  • wherever you shoot .

  • Here's a video sample

  • Okay to change it from vertical mode to horizontal motion simply just moved up and it

  • will be changed to horizontal mode.

  • Okay , we'll be showing you some video samples

  • that we took on the pan follow mode, the lock mode, the point of view mode, the

  • follow mode, the go mode as well as a vortex mode

  • This marks the end of the demonstration between this new Zhiyun Crane m2 together

  • with the Sony rx100 Mark 5A. This will probably work the same with the Sony

  • rx100 series from Mark one to Mark seven.
