Back to School Essential: Hohem iSteady M6 and V3 Gimbal

back to school

As the back-to-school season approaches, many of us are busy stocking up on essentials like clothes, daily necessities, stationery, and new smartphone and computer. But if you’re someone who loves capturing and sharing your life, or if you’re a photography enthusiast, there’s one more item you might want to add to your list—a smartphone gimbal.

A gimbal like the Hohem iSteady M6 or iSteady V3 can help you capture everything smoothly and professionally. Let’s dive into how these gimbals can enhance your school experience.

Capturing Your Day and Friendships

One of the most basic yet essential functions of a smartphone gimbal is its ability to produce smooth, stable video footage. Take the iSteady V3, for instance. If you want to record your day on campus, simply hold the gimbal and start filming as you walk. You’ll be able to create high-quality daily vlogs with ease.The iSteady V3 is lightweight, making it comfortable for extended use. Its POV mode can create a first-person perspective, vividly recreating your experiences when you review the footage. And if you run into friends and want to snap a quick group photo, the iSteady V3’s extension rod and remote control make it a breeze to capture the perfect shot.


Recording Educational or Study Videos

The iSteady V3’s AI tracker is a game-changer for solo video production, making it perfect for recording educational content, lab experiments, or practice speeches. Two major advantages set it apart: first, you can use your phone’s native camera for high-definition video; second, the intelligent gesture control and auto-tracking features mean you won’t need to run back and forth to manage your shots. If you find video production challenging or get nervous with others around, this tool is your ideal back-to-school companion.

Filming Club Activities and Parties

For events that demand professional-grade equipment and extended shooting times, the iSteady M6 is the way to go. This professional-level smartphone gimbal offers 360-degree infinite pan rotation and 335-degree tilt movement, allowing for unrestricted camera motion. With an impressive 18-hour battery life and reverse charging capability, it can handle a full day of shooting. The integrated fill light supports both CCT and RGB modes, offering 360 light color options to add unique atmospheres to your event footage.

Capturing Campus Scenery

Here are some useful techniques for showcasing your campus landscape:
• Use PF mode for pan shots to display the surrounding environment
• Use PTF mode for tilt shots of iconic campus buildings
• Utilize PF mode for orbit shots of buildings, trees, or people
• Use All Lock Mode for side tracking shots to reveal landscapes or follow moving subjects
• Utilize All Lock Mode for push in or pull out shots to gradually reveal the scenery


Both the iSteady V3 and iSteady M6 can handle these shots. However, If you’re into shooting ultra-wide-angle or time-lapse videos, the iSteady M6 is the better choice due to its ultra-wide-angle mode and A-B motion buttons.

Choosing Between iSteady V3 and M6

By now, you might be thinking, “A smartphone gimbal sounds great for capturing campus life, but which one should I choose?” To help you decide, I’ve created a comparison chart that highlights the key differences between the iSteady V3 and M6, so you can pick the one that best suits your needs.
