Summary
Developed for filmmaking professionals, the Zhiyun Shining marks a generational leap
forward in camera stabilization technology. The Shining is light, small and convenient to use.
The technology built into the Zhiyun Shining allows a broad spectrum of cameras, of varying
sizes and weights, to be stabilized during filming.
A brushless gimbal stabilization system is not simply three brush less motors moving on three
axes. Shining can processes movement calculation in milliseconds, which reduces angular
vibration to less than ±0.05"
of translated movement, meaning that the camera will remain
perfectly steady. The Shining can be used in two operation modes: Locking Mode and Pan and
Tilt Following Mode.

Installing Handle Bar onto the Gimbal
1.Piace the handle bar in position as shown below, then slide it horizontally into the gimbal
and tighten the lock-knob.
2.Hold the gimbal by the grips, make sure that the gimbal is not obstructed during a 360
degrees pan. The installation is complete.
Mounting the Camera
The Shining uses an adjustable camera mounting plate that allows you to easily balance,
install and remove the camera.The Shining has been tested with the following types of
cameras. Other cameras similar in size and weight may also be compatible.
Black Magic Cinema Camera
Canon 50 MK Ill
Nikon 0800
Black Magic Pocket Cinema Camera

CD
1. Make sure the g1mbal IS not turned on when mountmg the
camera.
2. Camera Size Requirements: The maximum depth from the
center of gravity on the camera base plate is 120 mm. The
maximum width is 169 mm as shown in the image to the right.
The maximum height, measured from the top of the camera
base plate, is 187 mmas shown in the image to the right.
3. To avoid obstructing camera movement, the use of soft
connection cable is recommended.
1.Attach the camera mounting plate to your camera using the provided camera screws A,B,C
or D. Camera screws A and B only fit the holes of the mounting plate, while the camera screws
C and D only fit the slot of the mounting plate. Be sure to use the correct 1 /4" or 3/8" screws.
Secure the camera as firmly as possible. Some cameras have two tripod mounting holes. If
two mounting holes are available on your camera, use them both. Choose the correct screw
holes, according to your camera's configuration.
2.1nstall the lens support by gently pushing it up, so that it is applying light pressure to the
lens. Then tighten the thumbscrew.
Shining User Manual
Getting Started
Why do you need a lens support?
Certain cameras have a very tight lens securing system, and some cameras such as the
Canon 50 MK II and MK Ill have very loose lens securing systems. The Shining balances
the camera as one solid unit. If the mounted camera has a loose lens securing system,
the lens support must be used. This is because a loose connection between the lens
and the camera body may allow vibrations that travel through to the camera but not
directly to the lens, resulting in the two masses shaking at different frequencies. The
resulting oscillations will be transmitted to the IMU, causing the whole gimbal to shake.
If the lens support fits, it's best to use it at all times.
CD ·
The lens support can be installed facing outward or inward to accommodate different
lens types.
· Ensure alignment of the camera plate and then tighten the mounting screw, before
tightening the lens support.
3.With the gimbal facing outward on the tuning stand, slide the mounting plate into the
receiver until the safety lock engages. Make sure the gimbal is not turned on when balancing
the camera.
4.When the camera achieves a rough balance, tighten the camera base side clamp. You can
adjust the tightness of the clamp with an Zhiyun Allen Wrench.
Configuring the Handle Bar
The customized handle bar of the Shining can be removed. If necessary, by following the
steps below.
l.Loosen the two grip screws where the handle bar meets the gimbal, as shown.
GeHing Started
Shining User Manual
2.Remove the grips from the handle bar.
3.You can remove one or both sides of the handle bar.
4.The resulting configuration is shown below.
Balancing
To obtain the best performance from the Shining, proper balancing is a must. Accurate
balance is critical for shots where the Shining will be subjected to extreme movements or
acceleration (running, horseback riding, biking, car mounts, helicopters, etc.). proper balance
will also offer a longer battery runtime. There are three axes that need to be accurately
balanced prior to turning on the Shining and setting up the software.
CD
• The camera needs to be fully configured, with all accessories, prior to installing
and balancing the camera on the gimbal. If the camera has a lens cap, be sure to
remove it prior to balancing.
• Be sure that the Shining's power is turned off while balancing the camera.
Shining User Manual
Step 1: Balancing the Vertical Tilt
1 .Rotate the Tilt Axis so that the camera lens is pointing upward and loosen the two vertical
adjustment tabs.
2.Gently slide the camera mount crossbar forwards or backwards until the camera points
upwards when released.
3.Tighten the tabs and manually rotate the assembly, simulating tilt, to ensure there is no
binding in the tilt motor. When proper balance is achieved, you can rotate the camera to any
tilt angle, and it will stay in that position.
CD
Ensure the measurement marks match up on either side of the vertical bars. If they do
not match up, the assembly could possibly be skewed higher or lower on one side,
which would cause the tilt motor to bind.
Step 2: Balancing the Roll Axis
1 .Loosen the two lock-knobs to allow the camera and mounting plate to slide left and right.
2.Siide the camera left or right until the Roll Axis remains level.
3.Tighten the two lock-knobs to lock the camera mounting plate in position.
CD
When adjusting the roll balancing position of the camera, only loosen the two lockknobs a few turns to allow the camera base to slide. Do not loosen the lock-knobs
excessively.
Shining User Manual
Step 3: Balancing the Tilt Axis
1 .Loosen the camera base's side clamp to allow the camera and mounting plate to slide
forwards and backwards.
2.Siide the camera forwards or backwards until the tilt axis remains level. Only very small
adjustments are required to achieve the proper balance.
3.Tighten the side clamp to lock the camera and mounting plate in position. If properly
balanced, the camera should be able to remain steady at any given tilt angle.
Step 4: Balancing the Pan Axis
1 .Loosen the clamp on the pan axis via 3mm allen wrench and turn the knob to slide the
assembly. Identify if the Shining is front heavy or rear heavy.
2.While the Shining is resting on the tuning stand, try rotating the Shining along the pan axis
by lifting one side of the handle bar. If the camera does not swing, the pan axis is properly
balanced. Tighten the clamp after balancing is complete.
Note: it is normal that the rotary knob still can rotate after tightening the screw.
Advanced Roll Adjustment
If additional roll adjustment is needed in cases where the camera itself is too light in
comparison to the tilt motor assembly, advanced roll adjustment can be achieved by
loosening the indicated screws and pushing the assembly to the right or left.
Shining User Manual
Operation Modes
The Shining can be used in two operation modes: Pan and Tilt Following Mode and Locking
Mode. You can change to the Underslung Status, Upright Status and Briefcase Status at any
mode.
Note: modes only can be switched by using Zhiyun wireless controller or Zhiyun APP(Zhiyun
Assistant).
Underslung Status
The Underslung Status is the default working status.
Upright Status
Flip the gimbal forward 180 degrees and it will automatically change to Upright Status.
Alternatively, you can change the gimbal into upright status before turning it on. Upright
Status is ideal for car mounts or other top down perspective camera positions, as it allows
you to shoot higher and/or at eye level.
Maintenance
Shining User Manual
Briefcase Status
Briefcase Status allows you to hold the Shining in a narrow space , makes camera more
flexible while shooting. To use Briefcase Status, tilt the gimbal go· to the left or right on the
roll axis.
Maintenance of Gimbal
l.Balance the handle bar and keep the gimbal flat. (When putting the gimbal upside down,
please ensure the ground is flat and the top handle bar should be down, otherwise the gimbal
may fall forward and overturn.)
2.The electronic gyroscope initialization or acceleration sensor calibration may be required
in the following circumstances:
1) .If there is deviation in the starting angles on roll or tilt.
2).lf the gimbal has not been used for a long period of time.
3).lf the temperature of the operating environment has changed considerably since the
gimbal was last calibrated.
3.Refer to "Zhiyun Gimbal Tools" or Zhiyun Assistant to get the method of calibration.
When the batteries are not in use, please have them fully charged and put in dedicated
storage box and prevent them from water, moisture and high temperature.
