Chinese filmmaking gear maker Gudsen has just announced the brand new MOZA Air 2s. The newcomer supports most mirrorless and DSLR cameras up to 9.3 lb. The gimbal sports a relatively compact design that is robust and sturdy. The built-in 3200mAh battery runs for up to 20 hours and can be recharged in approximately two hours when using a fast USB charger.
There are twelve buttons on the handle which allow users to access gimbal/camera functions directly along with a smart micro handwheel for precise adjustments on the fly. Other noteworthy features include mimic motion control, inception mode, object tracking, and extensions such as an ARRI rosette and shoe mounts for expanding the gimbal for more professional use.
The MOZA Air 2s comes with a quick-release system that is compatible with Manfrotto quick release plates and allows one-step balancing using a built-in hard stop, meaning users can go from tripod to handheld to gimbal in seconds.
You can easily pop your camera on and off without having to correct the center of gravity and rebalance the gimbal which is could be a huge time-saver on set.
The three-axis lock design of the Air 2S, on the other hand, allows easy access to custom balancing configurations and is also used for more secure storage.
The latch on each axis can be locked on the go without navigation through software menus. Furthermore, the intuitive AI algorithm can calculate the most optimal parameters for your camera setup, doing away with unwanted vibrations.
Beyond that, the MOZA Air 2S can be controlled via smartphones with an internal somatosensory switch to mimic your phone’s movement and control each axis independently.
Three sets of user data can be saved to store individual profiles for commonly used cameras, eliminating the need to reconfigure your setup each time you switch cameras.
