Getting Started / Using the Osmo

You can choose to unlock the gimbal before or after the Osmo is turned on. It is

recommended to unlock the gimbal before powering on the Osmo.

The Osmo will beep slowly if the gimbal is locked after it is turned on. This means

the camera is working normally but the gimbal is shut off.

If you need to unlock the gimbal after it is turned on, you must rotate the pan motor

after unlocking the tilt motor and pan motor to reactivate the gimbal.

Using the Osmo

Controls and Operations

The gimbal anticipates handle movement to smooth out pan and tilt transitions, and uses

SmoothTrack technology to reduce camera shakes from natural arm movements. Additionally,

there are buttons on the front and back of the handle that allow for finer control over the

gimbal and camera. All of the buttons and controls are described below.

Locking the Gimbal

Pull the pan axis lock down and rotate the pan axis to the locked position (until it cannot

rotate any further), and then adjust the roll motor and tilt motor in order to lock them in place.

You can lock and unlock the gimbal while the Osmo is turned on. Quickly tap the

trigger twice to reactivate the motors after they are unlocked.

Hold the Osmo steady and upright while it is starting up.

[1] Power Switch

Pulling the power switch again will cause the Osmo to go in or out of sleep mode.
