What parameters should I look at when buying a sports camera stabilizer?

Sports cameras are often used to shoot during sports. Because many sports shake is relatively large, the anti-shake function of sports cameras can't handle this situation well, so many sports camera users will configure a stabilizer for their sports cameras to improve shooting stability. The selection of motion camera stabilizer mainly depends on parameters such as torque, load and stability. When choosing, you can bring your camera to the physical store and try it out before buying it. Let's take a look at the motion camera stabilizer. 1. Is it necessary to buy a sports camera stabilizer?

Motion camera stabilizer is a hand-held photographic device used in conjunction with motion camera products to solve the problem of image jitter in motion. Due to the limitation of the anti-shake function of the motion camera, it needs to be stabilized to improve the stability of video shooting.

From this point of view, the motion camera stabilizer is essential for users who need motion shooting, especially those who have large motion range or even extreme motion. The motion camera stabilizer can realize anti-shake function through complex algorithms such as motor drive and gesture recognition, and improve the shooting stability of the motion camera.

Second, what parameters should I look at when buying a sports camera stabilizer?

With the increasing demand of consumers for hand-held stabilizers, more and more brands of stabilizers are adulterated, and the price and quality are uneven. If you want to choose a good sports camera stabilizer, you should know and pay attention to some important parameters of the stabilizer, and judge the quality of the stabilizer through these parameters:

1, torque

Torque is an important parameter that affects the performance of the stabilizer. The greater the torque value, the better the stability of the stabilizer. The torque value can be measured by putting the stabilizer in an upright position, flicking the edge of the camera with your fingers quickly, making the camera swing back and forth in a small range and observing the camera state; If the camera has a fast centering speed and a small swing, it means that the torque of the stabilizer is large.

2. Load

Load and torque are usually proportional. Usually, the greater the load, the greater the mass and volume of the stabilizer itself, which hinders the portability of the sports camera. So the higher the load, the better. Load is only one of the important factors to judge the quality of stabilizer.

3. Stability

Stability is the key to the performance of stabilizer. Although there are many stabilizers on the market, most of them use open source algorithms, and the stabilization effect in actual use is not good, which is difficult to meet the needs of users. Many sports camera stabilizer manufacturers will independently develop algorithms, including motor driving algorithm and attitude recognition algorithm, and optimize the algorithms through a lot of research to improve stability.

On the whole, it is still troublesome to choose the stabilizer of sports camera. It is recommended that you bring your camera to the physical store for trial before choosing to buy it.
