13 Gimbal tricks to up your gimbal game
Gimbals have become increasingly popular and it’s obvious why. Moves that required master camera operators can now be done with significantly less training. Add the fact that gimbals are becoming more powerful, more affordable, and more features rich, and you have a winning tool. That being said, gimbals still require a learning curve. This series of tips is here to help you get the most out of our gimbal on your next shoot. We got our resident gimbal expert Oleg Balzanov and a super talented dancer, Danielle Stephen to help us teach you these tips.

It’s nice to see that Manfrotto saw how monopods are used in tandem with gimbals and created a dedicated product for it.
So without further ado, here are our top 13 gimbal tricks:
