Camera stabilizer, phone stabilizer & gimbal: When are they useful?
A gimbal is a device that helps to stabilize an object. It can be used with cameras, phones, and other objects to help reduce shake and provide smooth video or photos.
When would you use a gimbal?
There are many situations where you might want to use a gimbal. If you are shooting video, for example, you might want to use a gimbal to help keep your shots steady. Or if you are taking photos with your phone, a gimbal can help reduce shake and blur.
Some other situations where a gimbal might be helpful include:
-shooting time lapse or slow motion video
-shooting in low light
-shooting video or photos while moving (such as walking or running)

Is a camera stabilizer the same as a gimbal?
Camera stabilizers and gimbals are similar, but there are some key differences. Camera stabilizers typically have multiple axes of stabilization, while gimbals usually just have two (pan and tilt). This means that camera stabilizers can provide more stability for your shots.
However, camera stabilizers can be more expensive and bulky, while gimbals are typically smaller and easier to carry around. So if you need a stabilization device but don’t want to lug around a big, heavy one, a gimbal might be a good option.
