Zhiyun WEEBILL-3 S Handheld Gimbal with Built-In Fill Light

The WEEBILL-3 S Handheld Gimbal Stabilizer from Zhiyun enhances the performance of its predecessor with wireless shutter control, a built-in fill light, and the refined Sling Mode 2.5, making it an ideal tool for run-and-gun filmmaking. Its streamlined sling design and integrated lighting contribute to a lighter and more compact build. A 0.96 inch touchscreen provides quick access to settings, Bluetooth 5.0 enables shutter control, and physical buttons allow for easy switching between shooting modes and parameters. Sling Mode 2.5 adds left and right tilt options along with center of gravity adjustments for smoother low-angle shooting. When combined with the optional extendable sling grip, the gimbal can be used in either sling or two-handed configurations, while the separately available wrist rest gains added comfort through a fine-tuning knob. A 1/4 inch 20 thread mount at the base secures the included tripod accessory.

An advanced 10th generation stabilization algorithm ensures smoother movement while maintaining portability. Its motors allow for 310 degrees of tilt, 360 degrees of pan, and 340 degrees of roll. The quick release plate includes a simple landscape and portrait switch, making it easy to capture both horizontal and vertical formats for everything from vlogs to TikTok content. The built-in fill light delivers up to 1000 lux of brightness, features adjustable color temperature from 2600 to 5500K, and offers a CRI of 90 for accurate color reproduction. Wireless Bluetooth 5.0 supports shutter operation through onboard buttons, and additional camera control is possible with the included cables for Canon, Sony, or Panasonic models. The gimbal’s 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi connectivity also enables integration with the ZY Play app.

The touchscreen interface and flight joystick provide quick access to different modes, while customizable trigger and wheel controls allow fine adjustments to gimbal movement, focus, zoom, or camera settings. Compatibility with TransMount transmission systems enables wireless monitoring and remote operation. Power is supplied by two built-in 2600mAh batteries that last up to 11.5 hours, with a USB-C port supporting camera power delivery as well as PD fast charging, fully recharging the gimbal in about two hours.
