Been doing a lot of researching of new equipment to accommodate the drone on some of my trips and was thinking a stabilizer would be next.

Anyone have any experience with handheld gimbals? I know the Osmo Mobile 2 just dropped and have read good things about the Feiyu G5 / WG2, also the SPG and Zhiyun Smooth Q/3.

I'm ultimately leaning towards dual set ups where you can attach a phone or gopro (Osmo/SPG/Q/3) but not against a dedicated gopro only gimbal if there are benefits. I know the G5/WG2 are splash/waterproof, couldn't find anything about the Osmo2 since it was just released.

Just looking for anyone's personal experience with these as there's so much info out there I don't know which to go with.

Here are some things I would like in order of priority

Stabilization
Functionality / Ease of Use
Ruggedness / Waterproof
Form Factor / Size
Costs (prefer to closer to the $100 (G5) mark than the $300 (Smooth 3)
