StabiLens is a universal counterweight system that uses a rubber ring placed around the lens to balance the camera package on a gimbal.
Each ring can hold up to 20 individual weights, either the tungsten alloy weights (12g/0.4oz) or steel weights (5g/0.17oz). Depending on the lens, you could add or remove weights for a total of 240g/8.4oz or as little as 5g.
The rings can fit any lens between 58-100mm in diameter.
Unlike other counterbalance weights that are placed on the gimbal arm or on brackets that require rebalancing for different camera & lens combinations, the StabiLens is placed on the lenses.
The quickest way to use the system would be to have a StabiLens for each lens that you use. This lets you keep the camera in the same position for each lens combination, letting you simply swap out the lenses as required.
Since the counterweight is also placed on the lens, it also works across gimbal models and brands, not limited to just single-handed gimbals like the Ronin-S or Zhiyun Weebill etc.
