GoPro AFHGM-003 The Handler (Floating Hand Grip) - Official Accessory, Black

Product Information

GoPro’s current lineup of action cameras offer some of the best video stabilisation around, but for cinematic camera movements, nothing quite compares to a dedicated gimbal. Compact and versatile, the Zhiyun Crane M2 S is a three-axis stabiliser that can be paired with your GoPro, smartphone or mirrorless camera. It offers dedicated stabilisation modes for recording smooth panning, POV and follow shots and even boasts a vortex mode for filming creative transitions.

Outside of typical mounts and attachments, there are several other accessories that can really boost your GoPro’s flexibility. Spare batteries are always a welcome addition, enabling you to shoot for longer while on the go. A decent case for organising attachments, memory cards and cables is always worth considering. Additionally, lights, waterproof housings and GoPro’s official accessory mods can all come in handy.

I do think there are better ways to doing this but it does work effectively and is only a real hassle when swapping from one mount to another.

The initial setup can be a little fiddly – and you will need to rebalance for different camera systems – but once you’ve got the hang of it it’s reasonably straightforward and the shots you can capture with it are easily worth the extra hassle. GoPro accessories come in all shapes, and sizes and all have a unique way in which they can help us improve our filmmaking.

It was an extremely welcome move when GoPro started introducing touchscreens into its Hero cameras, but screens of course do need to be looked after, and this is doubly true for action cameras that are thrown into tough situations. GoPro’s action cameras are a fantastic way to record your activities – but to get the best footage, you’ll need the best GoPro accessories.

The number is also pushed up by the fact that not every GoPro is exactly the same; the shape (and battery shape) changes over time, so essentials change too.
