Using only a smartphone and some items found around the house, you can create a rig capable of capturing stable shots of even the most high-speed action!
| DIY Tips
DIY photography hacks are usually inexpensive, fun and can help you capture better images/video without spending a fortune on new equipment and that's why the COOPH Team (and us) like them so much!

MPB puts photo and video kit into more hands, more sustainably. Every month, visual storytellers sell more than 20,000 cameras and lenses to MPB. Choose used and get affordable access to kit that doesn’t cost the earth. Sell the kit you’re not using to MPB. Trade in for the kit you need to create. Buy used, spend less and get more. Buy. Sell. Trade. Create.

In their latest DIY tutorial, the COOPH Team are making a Gimbal for smartphones so you can capture video with your smartphone that's not ruined by shake.
All you need to create the DIY Gimbal is a couple of tin cans, some tools for cutting a window in them, duct tape, a paint roller, mop head and a rubber band. You then need to connect them all together (watch the video to see how) and you have a smartphone Gimbal you can run with.
The final creation does look a bit Frankenstein monster but trust us, it works!
