MOZA has a new gimbal that is lightweight and designed for most mirrorless and DSLR cameras. The MOZA AirCross 2 comes in at only 950g (2 lbs) and is designed to be able to use for various cinematic shots with just one hand.
The body is made of magnesium allow and high-quality strong motors, the AirCross 2 provides 3.2kg (7 lbs) payload capacity and is capable of handling most mirrorless and DSLR cameras on the market.
With vertical video for Instagram stories being very popular, the MOZA Aircross 2 allows for your camera to be used in the verticle position so you don’t have to flip it in post. The kit includes an L bracket that is Arca Swiss compatible. Being compatible also means if you use the Arca/Swiss QR plates you don’t have to take them off and swap them out to mount the gimbal saving time on set.
A feature I like a lot is the Three-axis Lock Design that locks of the axis so you can easily balance the gimbal plus it keeps the Aircross 2 locked when traveling so it doesn’t flop around and causes unnecessary wear on the parts and frame when traveling without the case.
