Just a few days ago ZHIYUN has released an official teaser on its newest action camera - EVO 2, giving a hint on its new features but nothing else. In the very first day of CeBIT 2018, the mysterious EVO 2 has finally been unveiled.
Compared to its predecessor Evolution, EVO 2 has many new features on offer, including performance characteristics, the harness, the control panel, color, etc. Take a closer look at this brand new stabilizer.
The signature feature of EVO 2 is splash-resistant. Covered with ABS composite materials, EVO 2 can keep spills away even when charging action cameras. It’s worth noting that during the exhibition, ZHIYUN demonstrated this feature to visitors, by putting it in a water-spray box. The test proves its protective capability, and ensures safe use of the gimbal outdoors even in rainy days.
While currently almost all the action camera stabilizers on the market adopt the time-consuming screws-harness design, EVO 2 comes with a clip-up harness to hold the action camera. With a simple click, you can set up your camera within seconds.
Another highlight is the camera & gimbal control panel on EVO 2, thru which you can directly access Gopro functions, switch between video and photo taking or enter various stabilizer control modes. One thing to add, EVO 2 also features two new control modes, the POV mode and full-speed following mode - Beast mode. Connected to EVO 2, the APP ZY Play allows convenient adjustment of GoPro camera parameters and enable remote control on the gimbal attitudes.
The splash-resistant composite material also makes EVO 2 a piece of lightweight kit, delivering better portability and comfort of use. To increase the security, now a wrist strap with tough build quality is added for double insurance to adventurers and sports photographers on the go.
EVO 2 is also visual appealing. This time it is no longer confined to black or white but cool gray, conveying a neutral feeling which is catchy, stylish and even kind of rebellious.
CeBIT 2018 is a 5-day event from 11-15 June in Hannover Exhibition Grounds, Germany. Visit ZHIYUN at B46-22,Hall 11 and know more about this newest product, along with flagship products CRANE 2, CRANE Plus and SMOOTH 4.
