For the past 5 years we devote ourselves in the gimbal industry. We made gimbals for DSLRs, Mirrorless, Point and Shot, and Cellphone Cameras. But this time, we made a gimbal for every videographer like you and me. Driven by our core belief 'everyone can be a filmmaker', the ZHIYUN Smooth-Q2 is an affordable, pro-performance, real pocket-sized gimbal suitable for day to day filmmaking.

Why do we want to make a pocket size gimbal?
Gimbal in the past is not compact. It can never fit into your pocket for day to day shooting needs. So most of the time it ends up eating dirt in your room. That is why we think it is time for us to make a difference by designing a pro-performance gimbal that can fit into your pocket easily. Also the Smooth-Q2 is super low-profile which make it especially good when you want to do vlog or street snapshots.
What we have improved?
We completely redesigned the motor and structure to make Smooth-Q2 a small mobile gimbal ever without sacrificing the performance. And we also utilized a full aerospace grade aluminum alloy body to enhance the strength and stability of the gimbal. In one word, it is smaller and stronger!
And we didn't stop at shrinking the size.
We also made Smooth-Q2 the most user friendly gimbal. Smooth-Q2 supports your native phone camera app via Bluetooth connection, with 1 sec quick install clip with pre phone balance, Smooth-Q2 is functional just out of the pocket.
Smooth-Q2 is the pocket size mobile gimbal device by ZHIYUN with a trendy yet minimalistic design. With reduced size, the smooth silicon casing gives Smooth-Q2 a comfortable grip when you need to hold it for a long time. With Smooth-Q2, you can now record your life anytime, anywhere.
Easy Setup on the Go
Utilizing the quick release latch design, SMOOTH-Q2 is able to transform your smartphone into a professional camera within a split second. Providing an easy transition between standby mode and shooting mode, SMOOTH-Q2 is ideal for street snapshot and to capture precious moments. Most importantly, Smooth-Q2 does not require any re-balancing when the clip is re-attached back. With the smart quick latch design, SMOOTH-Q2 is hassle free and provides greater convenience for filmmakers.
User-friendliness
Smooth Q2 simplified all the controls to one LED indicator, two buttons and one 5 way control joystick, which is intuitive and convenient without much learning cost. The common ¼’’ screw thread fitting makes Q2 compatible to most add-on accessories in the market. Combining the new vertical shooting function, it is versatile and convenient for vlog and live broadcast. Plus a sleek cylinder-shape body, Q2 can balance by itself (with phone mounted) without Tripod.
With our advanced technology, SMOOTH-Q2 can control IOS and Android native camera via Bluetooth connection without using the ZY Play APP.
Relive the moment
Use ZY Play APP with your smartphone to unlock different filming mode. ZY Play APP offers a plethora of features such as intuitive editing function and various manual settings such as ISO and shutter speed. With such a powerful creative tool, you can achieve DSLR quality shots with your phone.
Enhance motor durability
The SMOOTH-Q2's motor durability has improved significantly with a maximum payload of 260g. Additionally, with its improved durability, Q2's motor can work 3000 hours continuously.
Improved body material
Built from aerospace grade aluminum alloy material, SMOOTH-Q2‘s arm and motor have greatly improved in its durability and reliability, with enhanced texture. SMOOTH-Q2 is designed as a truly compact device to withstand heavy load with higher stability and better performance producing better image quality. Although the material is improved, but Q2's weight is reduced to 380g (excluding battery).SMOOTH-Q2 is naturally small but with pro-performance and better stability.
All day battery life
Smooth-Q2's battery life is able to work for 16 hours continuously under normal filming condition which is 30% longer than previous generation. In addition, Smooth-Q2 has a micro-USB port that allows it to work as power bank to charge your cellphone. So you will never have to worry about missing any important moments in life. Moreover, Q2 uses a common 21700 lithium ion rechargeable battery that powers Q2 seamlessly. It can be taken out separately for charging through a charging device. At the same time, other 21700 batteries can also be used (however, we do recommend you to use the original batteries provided by us inside Q2).
Creative
Smooth Q2 supports 360 degrees of rotation and has 3-axis stabilization, containing a Tilt motor, a Roll motor and a Pan motor. These allows Smooth-Q2 to create a lot of crazy preset movement to make your video more enjoyable to watch. Overall, Q2 is the perfect mobile gimbal for both film experts and amateur, allowing you to explore unlimited possibilities that you can achieve with your mobile phone.
