DJI H3-2D Zenmuse GoPro Gimbal Take Cinematic Video With Your DJI Phantom

DJI H3-2D Zenmuse GoPro Gimbal- Coming Soon! 

The DJI H3-2D Gimbal for Go Pro Hero 3 is going to be amazing to say the least! Allowing owners of the DJI Phantom to get cinematic quality video with it. We are happy to announce that we are now taking orders for this much anticipated gimbal.  It is due to start shipping to customers around the end of June (shipments are almost always later than advertised from suppliers) hopefully.

What's the big deal about this Gimbal? DJI Phantom owners can already get some pretty stunning footage from the air with the stock camera mount. However, this new gimbal is going to auto stabilize the camera. In other words it will keep the camera level regardless if your Phantom is shaking in turbulence (quite common in the wind) or responding to pilot input. This results in very stable video without the telltale shakes and turns of the beginner photographer. The other main feature of the H3-2D is that you can tilt the camera in flight from the stock radio transmitter! This allows you to adjust the camera angle for getting all of those great shots from the air.

For the aspiring aerial photographer or the hobbyist who just wants to get some cool air to ground or air to air shots this is going to be a must have product for you. 

Although this product has not been officially released it should be starting to ship soon. You can reserve one now for only a $1 on our website.  We still don't know what the price is going to be on this yet, but we will inform customers as soon as we know and also update our website.

Here are two video demonstrations of the H3-2D gimbal. Keep in mind these were shot with a prototype unit. The production unit will no doubt be even better.

We can't wait to get ours to shoot some test video. Once we can do that we'll have a full update and more information here on our blog.

In the meantime here is the current information from DJI as of the time of writing this entry:

The DJI Zenmuse H3-2D Gimbal is another milestone in gimbal innovation, which is designed for the GoPro Hero3. With its high precision, high stability, lightweight, plug and play features, it is widely used in film and television productions, advertising aerial photography, etc. Even if the aircraft is in high-speed flight, it can still stabilize and control the GoPro camera precisely with the highest stability. The precision of control angle is within the range of ±0.08°, so picture or video output can reach the best quality.
DJI H3-2D Zenmuse 2-axis Gimbal for GoPro will be available soon. The 2-axis version supports pitch and roll stabilization control.
