This makes a great combo, however controlling the gimbal and focussing at the same time, if actually quite hard to do and leaving the focus pulling to another person would make it a lot easier. I have found out that with the Panasonic Image App you can use the Remote view to see what it is filming plus also control the camera with the exposures and stop and start recording, but the best thing is that you can still see the focus peaking over the remote view making it quite easy to view the focus, also with the Zhiyun Crane 2 you can set AB point to make it very easy to rack focus between two objects.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_06_16.Still003.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-16665\" src=\"http:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_06_16.Still003-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_06_16.Still003-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_06_16.Still003-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_06_16.Still003-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_06_16.Still003-520x293.jpg 520w, https:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_06_16.Still003-260x146.jpg 260w, https:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_06_16.Still003-356x200.jpg 356w, https:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_06_16.Still003-370x208.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_06_16.Still003-180x101.jpg 180w, https:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_06_16.Still003-130x73.jpg 130w, https:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_06_16.Still003-748x421.jpg 748w, https:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_06_16.Still003-624x351.jpg 624w, https:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_06_16.Still003-105x59.jpg 105w, https:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_06_16.Still003.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_14_16.Still005.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-16668\" src=\"http:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_14_16.Still005-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_14_16.Still005-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_14_16.Still005-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_14_16.Still005-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_14_16.Still005-520x293.jpg 520w, https:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_14_16.Still005-260x146.jpg 260w, https:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_14_16.Still005-356x200.jpg 356w, https:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_14_16.Still005-370x208.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_14_16.Still005-180x101.jpg 180w, https:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_14_16.Still005-130x73.jpg 130w, https:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_14_16.Still005-748x421.jpg 748w, https:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_14_16.Still005-624x351.jpg 624w, https:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_14_16.Still005-105x59.jpg 105w, https:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sequence-06.00_01_14_16.Still005.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Gear used for the rig:<br \/>\nZhiyun Motion Sensor Remote &#8211;
