Feiyu AK2000 Overview

The Feiyu AK2000 is a compact 3-axis gimbal stabilizer supporting up to 6 lb loads. It's designed with an angled motor arm so there's nothing blocking your camera screen, and it provides 360° pan, tilt, and roll motion. The gimbal features a multifunction handwheel on the side and a touchscreen LCD smart panel integrated into the handle. The handwheel allows you to control the movement of the camera in select operational modes, including pan and tilt modes, and also lets you digitally control focus and zoom with compatible cameras. Additionally, the handwheel provides external follow focus control if you add an optional, dedicated follow focus motor. Please visit the Feiyu website for a list of compatible cameras for standard operation as well as Wi-Fi focus/zoom control.

The touchscreen LCD, the joystick, and the handwheel work together to let you assign and adjust all the settings of the gimbal. The gimbal also includes the companion Feiyu ON iOS/Android app (free download) that lets you adjust settings and perform various actions remotely.

An optional Feiyu extension rod can be attached to the bottom of the gimbal handle so you can comfortably hold the gimbal with both hands for jib-style shots.

Multifunction Handwheel
High-precision magnetic induction knob allows control of focus, zoom, and camera movement in select operation modes of the gimbal, including pan and tilt modes.
Touchscreen LCD Smart Panel
Low-power LCD touch panel, in combination with the joystick and handwheel, allows for easy adjustment of all the gimbal's settings. It slides left/right to display different setting options.
Angled Motor Arm
A beveled angle design prevents obstruction of the camera screen during shooting, allowing for better framing and monitoring.
Manfrotto PL501 Compatible
The AK2000 is designed with a fixed mounting plate and comes with a quick release plate. The fixed mounting plate also supports the Manfrotto PL501 quick release plate for more flexible compatibility with tripods and other camera supports.
High-Precision Algorithms
The AK2000 features an M4 kernel MCU, 0.02° high-precision magnetic encoding sensor, and w5 generation control algorithm with correction speed of 2000x per second, all adding up to allow high-precision operation.
Wi-Fi + Bluetooth Dual Module Connection
The gimbal can be connected over Wi-Fi to compatible devices to control photo/video capture, focus, zoom, sensitivity adjustment, white balance, and exposure value, as well as to switch modes. At the same time, the included Feiyu ON iOS/Android app can connect to your camera via Bluetooth to set up various other parameters.
12-Hour Battery Life
Four included 18650 lithium-polymer batteries (2200mAh each) install into the handle to provide up to 12 hours of battery life.
Pan Mode
The roll and tilt direction are fixed and the camera moves left/right, according to the movements of the user's hand.
Follow Mode
The roll direction is fixed and the camera moves left/right, up/down, according to the movements of the user's hand.
Lock Mode
The orientation of the camera is fixed.
All Follow Mode
All three axes of the gimbal follow the user's hand movements.
Autorotation Mode
One of the selectable modes of operation is an autorotation mode that allows you to assign a pre-set travel route for standard video capture as well as time-lapse photography.
1/4"-20 Mounting Holes
A 1/4"-20 threaded mounting hole on the bottom of the handle allows extending the length of the gimbal with an optional extension rod, as well as mounting it on various other supports. The gimbal also offers 1/4"-20 threaded holes in the following locations for attaching accessories: on the top of the sliding arm of the tilt axis, at the front of the fixed plate, and on the pan motor.

Feiyu AK2000 Reviews

No good

By EDWARD
Rated 1 out of 5
Date: 2023-01-23

I never got to use it. It seemed to work okay with my T3i but then when I tried balancing a heavy smartphone it started going crazy. I then heard a creaking noise on its neck and then it rotated 360 degrees. After that it could not be adjusted properly anymore.

Nice

Will it work with a Canon PowerShot G3X ? How about Canon 5D Mark II ?
Asked by: Brooks
If you want to put the camera on the gimbal and balance it and hit record, then it will work with any camera+lense as long as the max payload will be taken under consideration. If you are asking about controlling the camera from the gimbal while using it on the gimbal then not all cameras will work with the gimbal. you can check the official website for more information about that.

Asked by: Yordy
This gimbal has a 6 pound load capacity and is geared more towards Mirrorless Cameras. We do not recommend it for the Pocket Cinema Camera 4K. Instead we suggest the Zhiyun-Tech Crane 3, which has the Pocket Cinema Camera 4K listed as compatible to shoot and balance with. https://bhpho.to/2Bog48k

Does it work with Canon EOS80D + EF-S 18-135mm ...

Does it work with Canon EOS80D + EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM lens? The FAQ section of Feiyu's web site says that the AK2000 is compatible with the Canon EOS80D. The FAQ also lists several Canon lenses as compatible, but the EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM lens (commonly sold with the EOS80D in a 'kit') isn't mentioned. Is the AK2000 compatible with the Canon EOS80D with that lens?
