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.
