Designed for popular DJI RS and select Zhiyun Crane gimbals, it improves handling, reduces fatigue and delivers smoother footage, particularly when moving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dual spring-loaded arms absorb vertical movement, helping to minimise bounce while distributing load more evenly across both hands. With adjustable tension and support for rigs from 4 to 11 lb, the ARES adapts to different setups while maintaining control and stability. Compact and modular, it can be quickly disassembled for transport, making it a practical addition to mobile shooting kits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0628\/6943\/8707\/files\/DF-ARES-DIGITALFOTO-ARES-DUAL-SPRING-HANDLE-FOR-GIMBALS-01_76a5888e-dc8a-4ff0-b09b-e29d5293e9cd.jpg?v=1783689515\" alt=\"DigitalFoto ARES Dual-Spring Handle for Gimbals\" style=\"float: none;\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho this is for\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGimbal operators wanting smoother walking shots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVideographers looking to reduce arm fatigue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUsers running mid-weight mirrorless or compact cinema rigs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCreators upgrading from single-hand operation to dual-hand control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConverts single-handle gimbal to dual-handle system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdds Z-axis \/ 4th axis stabilisation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustable spring arms support 4 to 11 lb rigs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproves stability by up to 30%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with 0.8\" to 2\" handle diameters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes baseplate for smaller gimbals with 1\/4\"-20 mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e360° rotating handles for flexible positioning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight aluminium construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow it works\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDual spring arms\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbsorb vertical movement when walking or tracking, helping reduce bounce and improve shot smoothness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDual-handle grip\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDistributes weight across both arms, reducing fatigue and giving more controlled operation during longer takes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdjustable spring tension\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAllows you to fine-tune support based on your rig weight, ensuring consistent performance across different setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHandle mounting system\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eClamps directly to gimbals with 1.6\"–1.8\" handle diameters.
