LOCK FULL (LOCK MODE)
Push Through: Lock Mode is suitable for
achieving a stable and controlled "push through"
shot, where the camera is moved forward while
maintaining a fixed orientation.
Slider/Reveal: For a slider or reveal shot, Lock
Mode helps keep the camera orientation constant
as you slide or reveal a new scene.
Lock Up Slider: Lock Mode can be used to
maintain a steady shot while sliding the camera
upward on a slider.
Push Forward: Lock Mode is effective for moving
the camera forward without any gimbal
movement.
Pull Back: Similar to the push forward shot, Lock
Mode keeps the camera stable as you pull it back.
Reveal Shot and Keep Moving Forward: Use Lock
Mode to maintain a consistent view while
revealing a new subject in the frame and
continuing to move forward.
Low to High Shots or Reverse: Lock Mode is
useful for capturing shots that transition from a
low angle to a high angle or vice versa.
Backward Shot: Lock Mode keeps the camera
steady while capturing a backward-moving shot.
Hyperlapse Footage: Lock Mode ensures stability
while capturing hyperlapse footage, which
involves moving the camera over longer
distances.
Taking a Still Shot: As the name implies, Lock
Mode is perfect for capturing still shots without
any camera movement.
Using a tripod.
Preventing the camera from moving when using a
gimbal with a motorized head.
Can also be used to prevent the camera from
moving when using a gimbal in a bumpy
environment.
