    They took preorders even more early.

    We have one for review and will post some soon.

  • So It looks like the Came Mini 3 is now the Came ARGO AND the capacity is 3kg, 32-bit with encoders, wireless control, 15 hour battery life and priced $1,188. Surprised no one else posted that they been taking preorders since last week.

    If you think a little you understand that camera on gimbal is balanced. So just mass in kg is NOT best way to describe gimbal motors limits. Big (physically) camera and long lens are tougher load.

    Restrictions come due to size, motors, actual popular camera modes and many other things.

    It is market, for now demand is not enough for such models.

  • No way. I think the 1kg capacity leaves a lot of camera and lens combos in the cold. 2kg or better capacity makes more sense for 2 hand operation. Like you can fly the Sigma 18-35 on the Mini or Single as the lens alone is a little over 800g.

  • Looks like the load capacity is the same which is unfortunate.

    I think this is that market dictates. Plus that both hands can bear for any prolonged time.

  • Looks the Came Mini 3 is coming soon with encoders, wireless joystick and a 20 hours of battery life. Looks like the load capacity is the same which is unfortunate.

  • Here is my review and test footage for the came tv action gimbal

    You see the unboxing and review of the gimbal. You will see the differnet modes ad how it can be used. At the end you see different scenes I have filmed with the action gimbal.

  • Here is the fifth video where I test the Came Single 3 axis gimbal for www.personal-view.com

    You see the gimbal in several different situations where I have used it in the past weeks. Also I tell what I like and give a conclusion.

    Any stutter you might see does not come from the gimbal but is a 25p on a 30p timeline problem. I had to mix footage.

  • This is part 4 of my Came Single test. A short video with some kitten very close

  • What kind of failiours do you mean? I have used it everywhere except of in humidify, because in Germany it is not humid like in the tropics. The gimbal does not behave differently than in the beginning. When you push it to the extreme of the limits and beyond then it beeps and starts to go crazy, but if you stay within the angles of what it is designed for it works great. Is that what you mean?

    That's pretty much I wanted to know. If you after using it for so long, have seen any problems or are any problems with the unit starting to show up.

  • I think they did it to save money and not have to ship 4 18650 + external charger.

    Version I know - new battery just have better capacity (as it is not made for place) and allow gimbal to live significantly longer.

  • Only the first batch of the gimbal went out for use with replaceable 18650 batteries. By the second batch they had already changed the power design of the gimbal, it was changed to internal battery with different voltage. I think they did it to save money and not have to ship 4 18650 + external charger.

    I think that they completely changed batteries used and also handle.

The charging jack mentioned in MikeLinns video above is not present in my gimbal

  • @AKED, can you please use your came single continuously as long as you can in different environments like outside, inside house any place humid and see if it any failure(s) occur. Have you noticed any issues with the unit that's different that how you first got it since you've had it for a while now? Thanks

  • I was out yesterday testing how long I could film with the Came single one handed, and after 12 minuted I put it down on accident becasue we ordered something and I forgot anbout the test. I could have done it much longer. I did not change hands and I did not support it with the 2nd hand.

    While using it single handed, the joystick was a bit difficult to use precisely. Not becaus it does not work precise, but because of the position of the fingers. One has to get used to it. Then it gets easier.
