This hello kitty gimbal is probably the cutest gimbal in the world

Looks like stabilizing gimbals are moving from being categorised as pro gear and are being commoditized. And a prime example of this would be this Hello Kitty camera phone gimbal.

I am not sure what is the motivation behind this but if I had to take a wild guess, I would say that the marketing director has small kids. Either way, this 2-Axis gimbal feature 2 Axis stabilization,  a -45 to +225 degrees tilt axis, and a -60 to +240 degrees roll axis. But never mind that, it has a huge Hello Kitty face.

Here is the movie that shows how to use the gimbal:

Here is the packaging:

The gimbal costs 125.00 USD and ships from china.

The company does make a bigger more professional gimbal called the SwiftCam X3s.

P.S. in a world where DJI is trying to expand their market with a silver gimbal, a Hello Kitty gimbal kinda makes sense.
