Fixed my gimbal vibration

[Btktwood]

After ordering The Professional Filter Set (which I'm very happy with) from Rainbowers, I noticed a vibration in my videos when using the circular polarizer. After further inspection I noticed it was my whole gimbal assembly vibrating intermittently. After searching online and finding no answers I figured it out on my own and wanted to post my findings. If you are having a problem with vibration, I hope this video helps.

Hi there. nice of you to post this. one quick question, have you tried using a 5g weight or is that not enough?

If I were to only one or two glass filters then I believe the 5g would be enough. Adding the weight of the polarizer I felt the 10g worked better.

hey there, i really have to compliment you on a great idea. i have the same problem, and started adding a 10g weight which had a drastic change on my vibration.. from every 2 seconds to nearly gone... i will however play around more with these weights as i believe that one have to find a happy medium in order to balance these gimbals.. one question though... did you ever encounter a overload on the gimbal or something similar.. do you think that one would be putting more strain on these gimbal motors?
