How to setup the Canon M50 and EF-M 22mm lens on the Zhiyun Crane M2:

• Unlock the red locking nut and slide the arm upwards
• Tighten the locking arm again
• Position the Crane M2 so that the Crane M2 screen is facing you
• Fix the Canon M50 via the large slot in the base plate and slide it on
• Clamp the baseplate into position with the Canon M50 as far left as it will go
• Warning: at this stage the camera is loose – mind your lens!
• Turn the Crane M2 with the joystick and screen to the left
• Undo the red locking nut again and adjust the slider until the camera balances – it is fiddly
• Then tighten the red locking nut again
• Loosen the camera on the baseplate and slide the camera forwards or backwards – until it balances vertically
• You may need to adjust the role axis vertically – again it’s fiddly
• Undo the locking nut (circled in the video)
• Now you need to slide the base plate along the arm to balance the camera so that the lens points upwards
• It’s possible that the viewfinder rubber will stop you getting this bit right
• Don’t worry adjust the best you can – a bit of guesswork
• Once the weight of the camera is on the gimbal there is enough clearance
• There will be enough clearance
• Don’t forget to unlock the pan axis
