Im planning on getting a gimbal this year hopefully, Im really interested in the DJI one. What are your guys recommendations? they go for around $1400 on ebay atm.
as for lens im not too sure yet what ill be using, I got a 25mm 1.7 and a 14-140mm right now I know weight and size matters so Ima prolly sell one and get a olympus 17mm 1.8 or maybe a
rokinon.
 
Right now i got my eyes on these 3 .Price range from $1200-1400.

DJI
CAME TV
Moza Lite

I want to mount a monitor, mic ect so I want to know what would be best, also to be able to use a 18-35mm sigma would be great too.
I want to get about 3 lenses as my go tos, like a Fisheye with speedbooster, sigma 18-35mm 1.8 , and a 70-200mm for tele photo work. I obviously know that I cant use the 70-200mm on the gimbals that size im pretty sure maybe im wrong.

let me know your guys opinion.

thanks
 
About one year I'm a happy owner of Nebula 4000 lite. This gimbal works with GH4 and lenses: 12-35/2.8, Summilux 15/1.7 and Samyang/Rokinon 12/2.0. I am very satisfied with results. I do not recomend using tele-lens longer than 35 mm (I did some tests with 35-100/2.8). I can imagine that one year is a lot time for technlogical breakdown for handheld gimbals and now the magical border of 1000g weight is so easy to cross, but with lens mentioned above GH4 this limit is ok. Recently i found an ineresting gimbal Feiyu MG with four working modes and reasonable price. This producer has already expirience with another gimbal constructions, especially models for GoPro.
I did not work with this gimbal, but I can see pros and cons of using this one:
Pros:
-weight
-easy to adjust
-replacement battery
-no wires outside body, clean design
-wireless remote control unit already in the box

Cons:
-lack of system parameters to adjust (i'm thinking of external program)
-no sockets for camera mounting screws 1/4"
-service (chinese product)?
