JOBO has introduced two small, electronic stabilization systems, even one for smartphones, the GYRO-pod SP1 for around 250 euros, and the GYRO-pod MD1 for cameras weighing up to 700g (or about Actioncams or light photo cameras) at a price of around 700 euros. However, the two Gimbalsysteme stabilize only on two axes (pitch and roll), this is about a joystick targeted camera motion be controllable (eg. Swing). One battery charge should last for approximately 3 hours of operation. In the two gimbal is not to Jobo-house development, but in March by the Kickstarter successfully funded models SP1 or MD1 the Chinese manufacturer Gazer. TheStabi-functionality is of course limited due to the lack, the third plane of motion - the three-dimensional stabilization is usually more expensive systems, such as in this country not yet available Gazercam MD2 (for around 2000 euros), reserved. Both gimbals are shown by JOBO also at Photokina in Cologne (16-21.9.2014). Alternatively, there's the 3-axis stabilization for smartphones and DSLRPros for $ 300 and soon a gimbal for GoPro for only around $ 350 - but not yet in this country.
