Not sure how to embed this.
The three axis gimbal is supposed to be priced at 3800 usd but the price is not final. Pricing info at around 6.00 in the video. And the good thing is you can hold it close to your body. Can someone visiting NAB give more updates about this?

Does it have any option to power from V mount batteries?
 
Smart compactness. But don't really understand how in the third rig we'd supposed to power the camera. And they better put a touch lcd on top of that Scarlet
 
Don't need a touchscreen just need a New Redlink ... this looks interesting and very affordable and it takes the weight. I agree about powering the camera not sure how you do it off the gimbal.
 
I would love to throw the 1 or 2 axis gimbal on a Steadicam sled...

That's what i'm talking about! If the 1 axis is reasonably priced, it'd be a no brainer to grab one

The 3 axis version is $3800. That means the 1 axis will probably be less than $2500. Maybe even under $2,000. Seems worth it to not have to worry about your horizon line anymore... :)

Under $2000 would be fantastic for a 1 axis. Those prototypes are using $180 motors so that plus the contoller and added material and development costs, it seems like a possibility!
 
They are having major issues with the software/firmware. I spoke with the CEO and he's like: shipping in 3 weeks, even though they just threw this together Sunday night. I said there's no way you're shipping that quickly, and he said: Absolutely. It's a neat design, but it's buggy. With these cheaper options out there, remember reliability and support on the back end are huge!
 
Word from Letus is these gimbals will hold at least 16lbs.
 
I played with one for a quite a while at NAB...I am pretty impressed by it and will be keeping a close eye on it. As of now this is my favorite gimbal of the bunch especially for the price point. The allsteady 8 was also very impressive, very well built and can support 18lbs. $5300 until tomorrow after that it jumps to $9900 (which seems a little crazy and for that price I wouldn't consider it at all...so hopefully they will keep it $5300).... Finally the ghstabi 14 also another great product for about $5900.
 
This is fantastic!
