3-Axis Camera Stabilizer Gimbal - NEW!

3-Axis DIY Camera Stabilizer Gimbal

Balvanz Enterprises is releasing the 3-axis Camera Stabilizer Gimbal for DIY projects. This product is based on the same precision machined, carefully adjusted, and proper design that has been pleasing our customers for countless years. Previously, we only had a 2-axis Gimbal Kit for DIY projects, but in order to offer more options for DIY projects, and fulfill requests from our valued customers, we decided to release the 3-axis Gimbal as well. The 2-axis Gimbal Kit is good for those who just want to get their feet wet with their DIY project, and can easily be switched out for the 3-axis Gimbal later. In order to maintain the accuracy of the 3-axis Gimbal, we decided it had to come fully assembled and professionally calibrated, unlike the 2-axis gimbal kit. The 3-axis Gimbal bracket and handle pieces are being offered with some powder coated color choices. The choices are Gloss Black, Mirror Orange, Transparent Blue, or Transparent Red. Of course, the product is also available unpainted.

3-Axis Camera Stabilizer Gimbal

Image
Over the course of several hours thirty four different parts come together to produce just one of the high precision 3-axis camera stabilizer gimbals found in our Specter Stabilizer .   For precise alignment of the mounting holes, the middle layer of the gimbal starts out as a square .   Once the holes are drilled and threaded the corners are cut off prior to final rounding( Shown on right) . Designed with three layers that are machined together for a perfect fit, lighter weight, and calibration adjustment for perfect balance. .  It takes over seventy different parts to assemble just one of our Specter Stabilizers , seventeen of which are custom machined with tolerances of just a few thousandth of an inch. Here’s a close up look at just two of those custom parts found in the 3-axis gimbal. With high precision ultra low friction surfaces, the new fully ceramic main bearing will give you the super smooth footage you need. ...

Nifty Fifty Battle - Canon EF 50mm F/1.8 II vs Canon EF 50mm F/1.8 STM Lenses

Image
  Canon lovers have long enjoyed the 50mm lens, so much so that they nicknamed it the Nifty Fifty. Over the years Canon has come out with a few variations of it.  We're going to compare two of those, the Canon EF 50mm F/1.8 II , and the Canon EF 50mm F/1.8 STM . Both lenses are of course 50mm, have an aperture of 1:1.8, and lack image stabilization, so we're going to focus more on the differences between the two in this blog post. Lens mount - [Winner] Canon EF 50mm F/1.8 STM Canon EF 50mm F/1.8 STM: Metal Canon EF 50mm F/1.8 II: Plastic Starting with the painfully obvious difference between the two, the Canon EF 50mm F/1.8 STM features a metal lens mount, which means it'll hold up a lot longer when it comes to users that switch lenses on a regular basis.  If you're the type that sticks with just one lens, I wouldn't consider this a deal breaker. Aperture blades - [Winner] Canon EF 50mm F/1.8 STM Canon EF 50mm F/1.8 STM: 7 blades Canon EF 50mm F/1.8 II: 5 blades...

DIY Camera Stabilizer Build - The Stabilizer Base Plate

Image
You're probably asking yourself why we chose to start off our DIY stabilizer build series with a part that seems so simple.  Just strap on a plate with some weights and move on right?  This is a part that regularly gets neglected, both in DIY rigs and Commercial stabilizers as well.  The base plate actually serves several key functions, so in the quest for a more stable rig spending some time on the design of your base plate is well worth it. Its the mounting point for your Counter-Weights If designed it can be used as a stand for smaller rigs It controls the inertia of the stabilizer - Key factor   Material Anything from wood to plastic to metal works as long as it's strong enough.  It needs to be able to support the counter-weights, and if you plan on using it as a stand keep the stabilizer upright.  We prefer to use ABS plastic sheet because it's both strong and light weight.  If you go with a 3/8" thick sheet like we offer in our D...
