Hi all - I am running a little side hustle offering media clips for local business adverts, as well as residential video and imagery. Currently I only use a 4K drone and most if not all of my work is exterior.

Lately I have had a few requests to film some interior shots for care homes, spas and hotels. I don't feel it looks very professional whipping out a mobile phone so I have used my drone in my hand to take these, as the results are perfect and stabilized (on board satellite gimbal). I am conscious that walking around with a drone in my hand folded up and a controller int he other looks a bit odd, so I wonder what the solution is. I presume a handheld camera in some sort of holder with a gimbal? However I have no knowledge of how these work and or what I need.

Any advice? I am not looking to spend much in fact as little as possible, as currently I am not doing paid work, it is all me volunteering my time for free building up a portfolio of media for demonstrative purposes.

Look at the DJI phone gimbals. They are really good and wil make your walk around videos look much better.
