If you want to record videos regularly, gimbal is a 'must have' buy. For 140 Euro you'll get semi-profi looking footages. I love this.
My own experience:

Software Stabilization in P20 Pro is quite good, but only 30 FPS and its flickering sometimes. Gimbal allows you to record 4K / Full HD 60fps with Stabilization.

Your friends are never going to believe what you did. The only way to prove it to them is with that video you took. Rate this thread to express how videos shot on the Xiaomi Mi A2 come out. A higher rating indicates that videos are smooth (and not choppy) and that auto-focus works very well, and that the camera adjusts quickly to different lighting conditions while recording.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
The 4K video looks good, but the catch is there is no EIS support for it.
Even though 1080p/60 or 1080p/30 do support EIS, the video quality is not as good (and looks unrealistic) as recording in 4K.
There are two samples over at GSMArena Mi A2's review, watch two of them in 1080p and you can see the clear difference.
This also happened in Mi A1, which is quite surprising. But it does not happened in other Xiaomi phone like Pocophone F1 and Mi 8.
Tried increasing the bitrate of 1080p video to 40Mbps but no clear result.
You can stabilize the 4K video using the Google Photos app so it's no biggie
If you are on stock rom without root or somekind mod like camera2 api, you can use Open Camera to enable 4K EIS and it is fantastic. Here is sample from youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZXy5sdevXE
If you have enabled camera2 api to use google camera port, than you lose 4k video recording option i open camera, and you need to use Snap Camera.
So you can have 4K eis, and it is working really good, do not need to use google photos stabilization because it produces wobbly picture sometimes. Even better use eis and than apply google photos stabilization after for rock steady video
Is it only me or it's common - when record the video, it's not as wide as when making photo. The ratio is the same BTW.
Cropped up video - Reason

Yes, this is the case.
As you know, Mi A2 doesn't offer Optical Image Stabilization, but just Electronic Image Stabilization/ EIS.
The concept of EIS revolves around stabilizing by using the cropped out parts as buffers so that the visible window is less prone to shake. However, if the pixels themselves are blurred, EIS can not do a lot. This is why EIS is bad at low light conditions.
Your friends are never going to believe what you did. The only way to prove it to them is with that video you took. Rate this thread to express how videos shot on the Samsung Galaxy Note 9 come out. A higher rating indicates that videos are smooth (and not choppy) and that auto-focus works very well, and that the camera adjusts quickly to different lighting conditions while recording.

Hello,
what format of video recording do you prefer ? UHD 60FPS are cool, but video has no stabilization and videos are too big.
Is it chance in future there will be QHD (2K) with 60FPS ? Not only 30FPS

Most likely it can be achieved via root and custom ROM on the exynos. The exynos 9810 have higher capabilities regarding that part compared to the sd845 so it can achieve higher FPS, but samsung can't release it officially as it will make the two variants different. The exynos note 8 for example has already unlock for 4к@60fps while stock is up to [email protected], all because the snapdragon 835 doesn't support 60fps on that resolution while the exynos does. Same is for our phone, the exynos has better capabilities in encoding video.
And:
what type of video recording do you prefer ? and why ? thanks
30 fps on android has better details, dont need to use 4k60 unless you pan a lot or shoot sports, zoom is also mediocre on 60fps
I still think the hardware is very capable to add EIS to 4k videos
I saw many vids on YT non of them addressed what i care about, on 1080p 30 fps recording, does the mate 20 pro stutter and kinda lags behind where your hand has actually stopped?
2- On 1080p 60 fps, is there any video stabilisation active?

No stabilization on the 60 fps. I've been reading about it all day, regardless I love my mate pro way more than my note 9. I'll be selling my note.
Hi Oppo Forum,
After using a Nokia Lumia 1020 for over 5 years, I had been on the look out for a good camera phone (something that can come close to the 1020 legend but not cost a bomb). Almost decided on the Oppo Reno 10x Zoom as it is an attractive package! However based on my research, I know some camera functionality is missing for now. Keen to know if it will come in a software update. These are:
1. Video recording using the Wide Angle and Telescopic lenses (in addition to the main 48 MPx lens).
2. Super Slow motion recording at greater than 240 fps (up to 960 fps). Even lower phones like the Honor View 20 have it already!
Would love to buy the phone if both of these are assured in future updates!

So no chance then?
BTW, read somewhere that video works on the Telephoto Lens. Is that the case?

In beta Android 10 update added 5x for video but is working with main camera. Where do you read that?

On this site itself: https://www.xda-developers.com/oppo-reno-10x-zoom-review/
"Unfortunately, OPPO doesn’t allow users to record videos with the ultra-wide-angle camera. Videos can be recorded with the telephoto camera, but again, the 125mm focal length limits the usefulness of this option."

The phone's camera is a beast in my opinion (ask any other user) and about the slow-mo, the phone can do 480 fps at 720p and 960fps in lower phones are interpolated fake frames and not real 960fps. The camera itself should have inbuilt cache memory to capture such 960fps and imx586 in the oppo , OnePlus 7 and redmi k20 pro doesn't have it. The redmi k20 pro can do 960fps but interpolated frames and it looks bad.(I tested it personally).
