ZHIYUN has announced a new gimbal “WEEBILL 3” for mirrorless cameras.
WEEBILL 3 uses lightweight and tough materials and adopts a new ergonomic design SLING 2.0. The SLING 2.0 system incorporates three ergonomic upgrades. “L-shaped handle reconstructed to be stable when self-supporting”, “new wrist rest”, “sling grip that can be repositioned and expanded and contracted” reduce the weight on the arm and 40 wrists % Or more support. By reducing the burden on the wrist, it does not make you feel tired even if you use it for a long time. In addition, by arranging the sling grip at the bottom of the gimbal, it is said to be effective in stabilizing when shooting at a low angle and preventing camera shake.
The grip comes with a thumb button, a mini control stick for movement, a finger trigger and a wheel, and can be customized according to the shooting mode and action parameters (camera para, axis movement, focus tracking, etc.).

By combining WEEBILL 3 with the TransMount image transmitter and “MasterEye Visual Controller VC100”, the director can check the shooting status by wireless image transmission and adjust parameters such as focus and zoom by remote control. In addition, accessories such as the company’s follow focus / zoom unit and “ZY Play App” are also available.
