GoPro Karma Grip – Hands On Review
SUBSCRIBE FOR THE LATEST VIDEOS
The Karma Grip is GoPro’s first official 3-axis gimbal for the GoPro Hero5 Black, although it’s certainly not the only gimbal built for the action camera. Third-party options have existed for ages in fact, such as Kumbacam’s gimbal mount, which we reviewed three years ago. The Grip is included with the Karma drone and is one of the aerial platform’s key selling points, but it is also available separately for $300. That puts it above most third-party options, but is it any better?
As the Karma Grip is designed specifically for the GoPro Hero6 and Hero5 Black cameras (Hero4 cameras are supported with an optional harness), all you need to do is plug in the camera and latch the housing, and you’re good to go. There’s no balancing required. This also means, of course, that you can’t adapt the Karma Grip to work with other types of cameras, whereas some third-party gimbals can be balanced for multiple brands and models.
In short, the Karma Grip is a decent stabilizer that should work well for GoPro’s primary demographic. But it is also very much a version 1.0 product, with several small issues we would like to see resolved in a future version. If you’re looking for a basic, no frills stabilizer for your GoPro, then it’s a solid choice. But if you want more control or absolutely perfect stabilization — or if you simply want to save a few bucks — hold off or look elsewhere.

GoPro Karma Grip – Hand On My Friends Sister Review
Do you have other suggestions?
Will this gimbal fit/work with the hero 7 black
Anyone know how to use the mount to attach it to the backpack doesnt seem to fit properly for me
I dont want an electronic gimbal at all….Manual all the way
Tbh it’s overpriced for what it is.
This thing is a fucking rip off
Btw you look like that guy that plays alot of Pablo Escobar movies
Is the grip water proof?
Just buy the smooth Q gimbal for 100$ with a GoPro attatchment. MUCH better than the Karma. I have both and the range on the smoothQ as well as the variety of modes is far better. Not to mention the Q has pressable buttons and easier to hold.
Its funny that the gimbal is more half the price of the hero6
Thanks for the review!
Take a fucking selfie on your phone FREAK. Or go spend £5000 on a professional gimbal. I'm watching from jail.
I am looking for a Camera for my up coming trip to Italy, Its insane whats out there and the choices. I want something that is not going to get in my way during this vacation, not looking to carry a bag of lenses or have something weighing me down. I have been at it for about 5weeks now, just looking at reviews and watching many many many youtube videos. I think i have it down to the Sony FDR X3000, GoPro 6, Sony 6500.(Audio, 4K and Stability are all important factors for me). This will be my first video camera besides my iPhone. It will be my second photo Camera, coming from full blown all accessories Minolta Maxxum 9000 shooting with slides. Any recommendations would help…Thanx In Advance
