Need a gimbal that will follow me

2 weeks 6 days ago #763649 by KZAM
I seem to recall a few years ago DJI had gimbal that offered the follow me tech.  So I will be looking at their offering, but wanted to see if there were other gimbals I should be looking at?  I want something I can mount on a tripod and have the gimbal follow me.

Thank you

I don't need no stink'in Signature! ha ha ha

Markuspix on Youtube did a comparison of several versions about a year ago. It might be worth watching.

I have followed Markus on YouTube for about 5 years now. He worked in Hollywood for the movie industry and is a model maker. He retired early in his 50's and now enjoys his life, photography and movie making are his main interests.

What he says about photography products are his own opinion, and I like that. His hobby is photography, and he has the money to buy anything that he wants. He has no sponsors and he doesn't accept money to say nice things about products that he buys and tries out. If he likes something he will say so. He may keep it for a few years, but he gives away in a raffle anything that he no longer wants to keep. Sometimes these are new and still in boxes or something that he has used, but now found a replacement that he likes better. It may be a $20 item, or a $4,000 camera.

I think for the money, DJI as already mentioned is going to be the best bet.  Just tough to beat when you consider what you get for your $$.

Same here, been following Markus for years, he's a hoot to watch.  Knows his stuff as well.
