Review Summary

Rated 5 out of 5

The fact that I can use this for my phone AND camera is such a huge plus

I've previously used their phone-only gimbals, which I love, for years and purchased this one when I saw I could also use it for cameras. At first, It can be intimidating to anyone who has never used one. There is a bit of a learning curve, but you won't know until you try it out for yourself. After some practice, you'll get the gist of how to work it, and my oh my what a difference this makes to your videos. I love how it has a built in flash with brightness settings you can control, and colored filters for the light. Makes shooting on the go such a breeze. The carrying case is a nice plus. There are padded dividers and some pockets to keep smaller items safe.

Easy to use

Works well with a6400, the fill light is especially great when shooting at night. Functions are nice and simple to realize and battery life is pretty good

Zhiyun CRANE-M2S.

CRANE-M2S helps you explore more possibilities in filming with its brand new compact design, enhanced compatibility and the newly-added fill light. Take it and embark on your next journey of creation.

Small, strong, super-light and cost-effective camera gimbal
Stay Handy. Get Ready! A powerful gimbal for wide ranging cameras and packed with useful features

Small Yet Strong
At just 549g, the CRANE-M2S is highly portable, just like a phone gimbal, but with the capacity to hold cameras up to the Sony A7SIII with small prime lenses. The super lightweight body is combined with stronger motors and extended axes compared to the standard CRANE-M2 series, making it a must-have for high velocity, run-and-gun filmmakers.

Zhiyun CRANE-M2S

Intuitive, Ergonomic Design.

Designed to feel completely natural in the hand during use, the CRANE-M2S features a built-in 0.66-inch display that offers real-time status and operating parameters of the camera and gimbal, giving users a convenient at-a-glance view while they shoot. Various operating modes are available in the CRANE-M2S, including Pan Follow, Follow, Lock, POV, Vortex, Go and more.

Ultra-bright Light Built -in
An ultra-bright light is built into the CRANE-M2S. Using Lumen Amplifier technology it can produce over 1000 lumens brightness within 2.8 cubic meters, ideal for capturing subjects directly in shot. With five levels of adjustability and four color filters, it gives users more creative potential and control.

Intuitive, Ergonomic Design.

Flagship Grade, Quick Release Technology.

Featuring Zhiyun's latest quick release technology previously only used in its flagship gimbals, the V-shape design provides better working efficiency, while dual safety locks ensure the equipment always remains attached when you need it to.

Fast Charging and Camera Battery Boosting
Supporting USB PD fast charging up to 12W via its USB-C connector, a full charge time can be achieved in just 100 mins, allowing the CRANE-M2S will run for up to 10 hours. For compatible devices, cameras can be directly connected via USB-C cable to engage direct shutter control and supply up to 5V/1A of power directly to the camera, extending its battery life.

Flagship Grade, Quick Release Technology.

Next Level Agility.

The CRANE-M2S offers a more cost-effective alternative to the CRANE-M3 for those that need a lighter, more agile device and use smaller cameras and lenses, while still offering better features than the standard CRANE-M2, including a considerably longer battery life, faster charging time, ability to charge while operating while also charge cameras attached, an integrated fill light, and Zhiyun's Quick Release 4.0 technology.

Bag Your Gear and Go!
Available with the Combo package, Zhiyun provides a customized bag with dedicated spaces for the CRANE-M2S to be stored and transported safely. High quality and with a spill-resistant coating, it's an ideal partner to get you and your gear on-site, anywhere.
