Zhiyun Crane 4

The CRANE 4 has been carefully designed to meet the ambitions of global filmmakers and content creators.

One notable feature is the built-in balance indicator lamps on each motor, allowing quick verification of calibration status. Bluetooth connectivity allows direct control of the shutter release of supported cameras, without a cumbersome cable to get in the way or lost. Operators can easily start or stop shooting as well as remotely activate the photo function.

Less Weight, More Ergonomics
The CRANE 4 is precision-engineered and built lighter than previous generations, allowing you to work one or two-handed for longer without fatigue. The CRANE 4 features an innovative, adjustable handle that, along with the ergonomic wrist rest, allows you to precisely adjust the angle for specific motion control. The versatile handle can be adjusted to the center axis of the gimbal and allows for easy switching between sling and two-hand modes depending on the operator's preference. The quick release module allows you to effortlessly switch between landscape or portrait mode as needed.

Next-Generation Precision and Performance
The CRANE 4 takes payload capacity to the next level, allowing it to more accurately lift and move heavier full-frame DSLR and compact cinema cameras like the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K, ZCAM and SIGMA FP series. Its longer arm lengths and powerful motors ensure effortless accuracy and impressive portability.

Easy-to-read color touchscreen
The integrated 1.22-inch color touchscreen allows operators to easily view and adjust CRANE 4 functions such as balance, operating mode and real-time status information

PD Fast Charge - Lasts All Day
Four powerful 18650 batteries provide up to 12 hours of runtime and can be fully charged in less than two hours via USB PD Fast Charge, allowing operators to use their preferred PD charger for multiple devices

Built-in Fill Light
New to the CRANE series, the CRANE 4 includes a built-in 10W fill light with a maximum illuminance of 3200 lux, CRI 95+ and a CCT between 2700K-5500K. The added layer of integration and portability facilitates shoots where equipment weight and crew size are important considerations.

Comprehensive Creative Ecosystem
The CRANE 4 can be coupled with a wide range of professional accessories, such as remote monitoring, follow focus motors and ZHIYUN's TransMount image transmission system, creating a comprehensive creative ecosystem for professional filmmaking
