| I'm looking to add video tours to my services. What DSLR gimbal is recommended? Or would you recommend just getting the Osmo Pocket? Thank you for your input. |

| depends on your camera, weight is a big factor, doing a large house can really take a toll on your arm. sort out which camera you will be using and then look for a gimbal that will take that weight (with lens) | ||

| Not sure if you are flying a drone but here is my 2 cents. I was using one of the lower end Zhiyun Crane models with a light weight Panasonic G85 Mirrorless (for video only). It worked out well enough but after acquiring my Mavic 2 Pro a year or 2 ago, I just started using that for interiors too. I hold it. Pan left and right with my hand - up and down with the gimbal. I can bareley tell the difference in quality if any. It is one less thing to carry in my bag. I am already flying the drone for exteriors so it is ready to go. I also don't have to worry about different settings, frame size and frame rate in post. I keep considering spending money on a better mirrorless and gimbal but I honestly don't know that it is worth it. I don't want to get into lighting and spending too much time so I don't know how much of a difference it would make. I would like to hear what others have to say about this. I feel I am already giving plenty for my real estate packages (Stills, Aerials, Matterport, Zillow Tour and uploads) so not trying to spend more time unless it is going to be a world of difference and maybe I can charge a bit more. Camera weight is definately a factor. I was initially using my DSLR. That was heavy and clumsy. |

| @Fmodjr1913 I will at least try this method with my drone before making a purchase, seems like it could work out. Thanks for your input! |

| I have a Crane 3 Lab. It can get heavy quick, but it's a great gimbal. I originally bought it for a BMPCC 4k, but I sold that camera. It's a little overkill now. | ||
