How Does the SHOTOVER G1 Gimbal Keep Your Camera Stable?
The SHOTOVER G1 is a gyro-stabilized gimbal system. It is a type of gyroscope, which means that it retains its position independent of its base. The camera can rotate in any direction while the base remains stationary. The inclusion of motors allows the gimbal to automatically adjust the position of the camera to keep it stable.
Stabilizing the camera eliminates the shaky handheld effect when using a camera without a mount. It also ensures a smooth motion when panning, whether you use it with or without a dolly or a jib.
Greater Convenience for Camera Operators
The SHOTOVER G1 gives your camera operators greater flexibility. The gimbal supports left-handed and right-handed joystick operation. It also comes equipped with an integrated battery and a spare battery for continued use during long shoots.
The design is also incredibly lightweight. The SHOTOVER G1 gimbal weighs just over 11 pounds, making it one of the lightest high-quality gimbals available.

Within seconds, you can detach the unit from a mount and switch to handheld use or vice versa. It also supports sUAS, bowl mounts, Mitchell mounts, and other mounting options
Advanced Gimbal with Built-in Lens Control
The SHOTOVER G1 includes built-in lens control. It can control the focus, iris, and zoom of the camera. The camera operator can adjust these settings from the controls on the device or using wireless controls.
The built-in controls offer greater convenience and smoother operation. You can decrease the risk of needing another take due to shaky camera movement.
