Is it worth getting a 3-axis stabilizer for your iPhone or mobile device? When Iβm filming with my iPhone, itβs really nice to get smooth stable shots easily with a gimbal. So, personally I like have a smartphone gimbal handy! The Zhiyun Smooth 5S is a great gimbal that can hold a heavy payload, so even phones with a cage will work. You can add accessories like a Rode Wirelss Go microphone and lights.

![How Does ProRes RAW Compare to BRAW? | Sony a7siii vs Blackmagic Pocket 6k [HDR]
What is ProRes RAW exactly, what can it do and how does it compare to BRAW? We did a side by side comparison of the Sony a7siii shooting in ProRes RAW to the Atomos Ninja V and the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6k shooting in Blackmagic Raw to a Samsung T5 SSD. Check out the results and comment below, what do you think looks better?
**This video was edited and uploaded in HDR, however its my first time ever using an HDR workflow and Im still learning the best way to do it and get it to look right on YouTube for both SDR and HDR. So yes, I know it LOOKS underexposed, but trust me its not, it was all shot with a proper exposure. It was just graded as SDR on an HDR timeline, which turns out very improperly dark! So give me a break here guys, itll be better the next time! If you want to see the side by side comparison footage with corrected luminance, watch it here: https://youtu.be/TPD91Eh_Dn8
